Our researchers studied the data for years, with 2023 as the base year and 2024 as the estimated year, and presented the key drivers, trends, and challenges for the market. Although there has been a disruption in the growth of the market during the COVID-19 pandemic, a holistic analysis of drivers, trends, and challenges will help companies refine marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
CNC vertical machining centers have been undergoing a significant technological disruption due to the integration of several modern technologies, including Non-Uniform Rational Basis Spline (NURBS). In addition, the CNC machines that are based on NURBS are capable of rendering a variety of shapes, ranging from a simple 2D line, circle, arc, or curve to complex 3D organic free-form surfaces and solids.
Moreover, the integration of advanced controlling solutions in CNC machines helps achieve great accuracy in a machining process through enhanced jerk control. In addition, NURBS helps the die and mold industry improve product accuracy by offering over a 1,000-times improvement in control operations conducted over cutting and other operations in each axis. Hence, such factors are driving the market growth during the forecast period.
There has been a significant revolution in five-axis CNC vertical machining centers in the metal processing industry by increasing efficiency, reducing cycle time, and reducing the wastage of material. However, the increasing demand from major end-users including automotive, aerospace, and metal fabrication has prompted the manufacturers of CNC vertical machining centers to undertake innovations and incorporate advanced technology.
Moreover, the advent of the six-axis CNC vertical machining centers has redefined machining operations. In addition, the capability of the machine to turn both ends of fixtures enables the processing of the raw material into a finished product without the use of multiple fixtures and other machining activities. Hence, such factors are positively impacting the computer numerical control (CNC) vertical machining centers market. Therefore, it is expected to drive the market growth during the forecast period.
Many manufacturing industries in mature markets, including the US and Europe, have shut down their operations due to high labor costs and stringent industrial emission norms being implemented. As a result, there is an increased availability of refurbished machine centers in the market which is hampering the procurement of new CNC vertical machining centers.
Moreover, as refurbished equipment is readily available at a lower price, the industries that are located in developing APAC countries, such as China, India, and Singapore, are utilizing this equipment, exported from the US and Europe, to establish a cost advantage. In addition, CNC vertical machining centers can be easily substituted by CNC horizontal machining centers. Hence, such factors are hindering the market growth during the forecast period.
The less than 5-axis segment is estimated to witness significant growth during the forecast period. This segment comprises 2.5-axis, 3-axis, and 4-axis CNC vertical machining centers. In addition, in 2.5-axis CNC vertical machining centers, there are three axes, but only two axes can rotate simultaneously. Furthermore, in 3-axis CNC vertical machining centers, the cutting tool moves around three axes (X, Y, and Z). In 4-axis CNC vertical machining centers, the cutting tool moves around the same three axes with a rotating X-axis.

The less than 5-axis segment was the largest segment and was valued at USD 1.73 billion in 2018. Moreover, among these variants, 2.5-axis CNC vertical machining centers are mostly outdated in the market, while 4-axis CNC vertical machining centers have become more common in recent times. In addition, 5-axis CNC vertical machining centers dominate the market segment due to their large-scale abilities to serve a wide range of industrial applications at an affordable price. Furthermore, for milling and boring applications that involve simple metal designs such as gear cutting, 3-axis, and 4-axis CNC vertical machining centers are mostly used as these machines are economical when compared with 5-axis CNC vertical machining centers. Hence, such factors are fuelling the growth of this segment which in turn drives the market growth during the forecast period.
Based on the end-user, the segment is classified into automotive, aerospace, metal fabrication, and others. The automotive will account for the largest share of this segment. The global automotive industry is undergoing a significant revolution in terms of regulatory framework, technological advances, and customer requirements. In addition, customer preferences in terms of vehicle sophistication with more efficient engines are driving the adoption of new technologies in the industry. Moreover, automotive OEMs have started launching differentiated vehicle categories, such as micro-sport utility vehicles (SUVs) and mid-sized pickup trucks, to attract various segments of vehicle buyers. Furthermore, CNC machining is widely used in automotive applications for manufacturing complex interior and exterior parts, such as valves, pistons, throttles, headlight housings, transmission cases, aluminum wheels, and cylinders of engines. Hence, such factors are fuelling the growth of this segment which in turn drives the market growth during the forecast period.
