Air Cooling in Plasma Welding Torches Offers Cost-efficiency for End Users
Apart from innovations in MIG (metal inert gas) / MAG (metal active gas) welding, equipment manufacturers in the welding torch and wear parts market are expanding their product portfolios in plasma welding torches. Plasma welding torches is a smart approach that offers perfection in welding applications. Companies in the welding torch and wear parts ecosystem are increasing the sales of plasma welding torches by providing cutting-edge features in products that support the supply chain of stakeholders in the heavy-duty, construction, and automotive value chain.
Manufacturers in the welding torch and wear parts market are adding value to plasma torches with the help of new air cooling methodologies. End users are increasingly benefitting from air cooling, as the technique deploys the force cooling of wear parts, resulting in premium cutting performance and longer product life of the wear parts. Thus, the air cooling method provides cost-efficiency for end users.
Meeting Strict Industry Standards Becomes Prime Focus Point for Manufacturers
The welding torch and wear parts market has the potential for high growth during the forecast period. However, it is mandatory for companies to meet strict standards in the market landscape. In order to comply with stringent regulations, manufacturers in the welding torch and wear parts ecosystem are running torches and wear parts through several tests, such as measurement and heating tests to abide by the laid down norms.
Companies in the welding torch and wear parts market are running resistance and strength measurement tests of products to help end-users ensure maximum durability and reliability in TIG welding. Apart from gas cooling methods, companies are innovating in new water cooling methodologies. For instance, a water-cooled copper block is welded to measure the right heating temperature of the welding torch as per formulated industry standards. This technique is backed with the help of advanced electronic sensors. Manufacturers are investing in thermal cameras to place the sensors at optimum points to ensure that all the hot spots are included during the measurement test.
Analysts’ Viewpoint
New developments are on the rise as far as robotic welding torches are concerned. Companies in the welding torch and wear parts market are focusing on expanding their product range in robotic welding torches. For instance, Abicor Binzel - a leading manufacturer of robotic welding torches, announced the launch of ROBO Compact W600 - an addition to its product range of liquid-cooled high-performance welding torches. However, keyhole TIG poses limitations in single-pass welding, due to the absence of additional layers to execute the welding. Thus, companies should educate end users about the usage of part positioners and rotational devices to successfully execute single-pass welding. They should also run several tests to comply with strict industry standards.

Global Welding Torch and Wear Parts Market: Overview
- According to Transparency Market Research’s latest market report on the global welding torch and wear parts market for the period of 2019–2027 (wherein, 2019 to 2027 is the forecast period and 2018 is the base year), increase in vehicle production coupled with growth of the construction and manufacturing industries is anticipated to propel the welding torch and wear parts market, worldwide.
- The global welding torch and wear parts market is projected to expand at a CAGR of ~4% over the period of forecast.
Growth in Number of Vehicles: A Key Driver of Welding Torch and Wear Parts Market
- The welding torch and wear parts market has been experiencing exponential growth in the last couple of years, owing to rise in the demand for passenger and commercial vehicles. Increase in disposable income and growing road connectivity are prime factors responsible for the rising demand for four wheeler and two wheeler vehicles. In the international automotive industry, in 2017, passenger car production experienced a growth of 2.4% over the previous year. This is anticipated to boost the welding torch and wear parts market to a significant extent.
- Additionally, as per the data published by the International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers, total commercial vehicle production across the world stood at 25 million units, out of which, the U.S. accounted for the highest share of approximately 33%, followed by China with 17%, in 2018. Thus, the demand for welding torch and wear parts is anticipated to grow with the growing number of passenger and commercial vehicles, thereby leading to the growth of the welding torch and wear parts market during the forecast period.
