The global Friction Welding Machine market size was US$ 548 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 686 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 3.3% during the forecast period 2025-2031.
Friction Welding Machine is a type of machine which uses friction welding technology to work. Traditionally, friction welding is carried out by moving one component relative to the other along a common interface, while applying a compressive force across the joint. The friction heating generated at the interface softens both components, and when they become plasticised the interface material is extruded out of the edges of the joint so that clean material from each component is left along the original interface. The relative motion is then stopped, and a higher final compressive force may be applied before the joint is allowed to cool. The key to friction welding is that no molten material is generated, the weld being formed in the solid state.
Global main manufacturers of friction welding machine include KUKA, Izumi Machine and Branson (Emerson), etc. The top three players hold a share about 30%. Europe is the largest producer of friction welding machine, holds a share around 31%, followed by China and North America, with share 25% and 20%, separately. The largest market is Europe, holds a share about 34%, followed by North America and China, with around 26% and 18% market share respectively.
