Automotive Camshaft Market 2024 – Asia Pacific and Latin America are anticipated to witness high growth

Over the past few decades, the automotive sector has evolved at a rapid pace due to advancements in technology, innovations, and evolving industry requirements and standards. Internal combustion engines have experienced waves of modifications and innovations over a span of several decades. The camshaft is one of the integral components of an engine and is primarily deployed in engines to open or close the valve, which allows the entry of fuel and also releases gases efficiently. The shape of the camshaft largely controls the action of the valve. The camshaft plays an important role in enhancing the fundamental functioning of an engine. Camshafts are extensively used in both modern-day overhead-cam (OCH) engines as well as older engines.

Technologies revolving around internal combustion engines have consistently evolved over the past few years and are largely inclined toward improving performance and efficiency. As the automotive sector continues to emphasize on launching lightweight vehicles, improve fuel efficiency, and reduce carbon emission, camshaft manufacturers are increasingly developing new products in tune with these requirements. The significant rise in the number of commercial vehicles particularly in the Asia Pacific region is expected to augment the demand for automotive camshafts during the forecast period. Moreover, government bodies across the world are imposing regulations to curb environmental degradation. At the back of these factors, the global automotive camshaft market is expected to attain a market value of ~US$ 27 Bn by the end of 2027.

Advent of Hybrid Vehicles Presents Lucrative Opportunities for Market Participants

Full-electric and hybrid vehicles have gained considerable popularity in the past 10 years. Automotive manufacturers, researchers, and consumers have expressed noteworthy interest in electric and hybrid vehicles, particularly in the past few years as a measure to curb pollution and save fuel. In hybrid cars, the main source of energy supply is the heat engine due to which combustion is streamlined and fuel-efficient. However, in their efforts to further improve the overall efficiency of heat engine, companies operating in the current automotive camshaft market landscape are increasingly focused on the design aspects of the automotive camshaft.

Within an internal combustion engine, the camshaft plays a key role in the cleaning and refilling of the engine. The valve timing of the engine determines the level of fuel consumed and thus, to manufacture an accurate automotive camshaft, the design aspect of it is highly critical. At present, due to advancements in technology, software tools are increasingly being used to design automotive camshafts. Within the automotive camshaft market, inline engines are set to remain the most popular engine type that will make use of camshafts followed by V-engines. As inline engines are relatively easier to manufacture, cost-effective, and adopted by a large amount of established automakers, the inline engine segment is expected to assert its dominance during the forecast period. However, in recent times, the soaring sales of premium vehicles, growing consumer demand for high performance and comfort are some of the major factors due to which the uptake of automotive camshaft in V-engine is on the rise.
