Mining Drill Bits Market Size, Trends, Opportunities, Innovations & Forecast till 2026
According to a new report published by KD
Market Insights, titled, “Mining Drill Bits Market by Type,
Material, Operation, and Bit Size: Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry
Forecast, 2019–2026,” the global mining drill bits market size was valued at
$1,145,000 thousand in 2018, and is projected to reach $1,711,800 thousand by
2026, growing at a CAGR of 5.1% from 2019 to 2026. The drill
bits equipment is used for drilling earth surface and breaking rocks in the
mining industry. Types of drill bits include rotary, DTH hammers bits, anchor
bits, cross bits, and chisel bits.
In 2018, Asia-Pacific dominated the global
market, in terms of revenue, accounting for around 48.7% share of the global
market, followed by LAMEA. Based on type, the rotary drill bits segment accounted
for around 79.1% in overall global mining drill bits market share in 2018. The
DTH hammers bits segment is expected to witness significant growth during the
forecast period. The key factors that drive the growth of the global mining
drill bits market include rise in mining activities around the globe due to
increase in demand for coal, metal, and minerals. In addition, expansion of
existing mines in the developing countries such as China and India fuel the
mining drill bits market growth.
However, stringent government regulations
related to mining industry are expected to restrain the growth of the market.
Furthermore, artificial intelligence (AI) helps to dig holes efficiently and
safely in the drilling operations. For instance, Canada-based company Goldspot
Discoveries Corp. has launched AI technology equipped with drills. The drills
can detect and verify the gold deposits and mineral under the ground.
Similarly, technology innovator giant, IBM, has developed the AI system in
mining drilling machines. The technological innovations in drilling process for
mining such as IoT, infrared, sonic, and optical micro cameras are anticipated
to provide lucrative opportunities for the market growth during the forecast
period.
The surface drilling segment has secured the
highest share of around 61.3% in the mining drill bits market in 2018.
The underground drilling segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during
the forecast period. In terms of material, the diamond sector is expected to
contribute the highest market share in the coming years. Moreover, increase in
emphasis on the mining sector is expected to provide lucrative growth
opportunities for small players in the developing economies.
Asia-Pacific serves as the most productive
region as compared to other regions. The various domestic competitors are
investing in the coal mining sector, which is anticipated to fuel the growth of
the mining drill bits market. For instance, China is the largest producer and
consumer of coal in the world. In 2017, coal consumption in China reached 2.81
billion metric tons from 2016. Therefore, increase in coal mining leads to
utilization of drills; thereby, providing lucrative opportunities for the
growth of the market.
Furthermore, in 2018, Asia-Pacific registered the highest growth rate in the mining drill bits market due to expansion of coal and metal mining in the region. Based on bit size, the 250–300 mm mining drill bits segment is expected to experience rapid growth in the emerging economies during the forecast period, owing to deployments of mining drilling machines and drilling rigs in the mining industry. For instance, Atlas Copco, a parent company of Epiroc AB had invested $13.4 million for the expansion of the factory in Hyderabad, India, doubling its capacity. The plant manufacturers are drilling consumables for surface mining applications.
The major players such as Epiroc AB and
Sandvik AB in global mining drill bits industry focus on developing new
products to strengthen their presence in the market. Moreover, these companies
expand their business by acquiring small businesses to sustain the intense
competition.
According to Amar Chinchane, Lead Analyst, Construction and Manufacturing at KD market Insights, “The wide range of domestic players are expanding their business in Asia-Pacific region, owing to increased customer base, enhanced effective operations, developed product portfolios, and expanded geographical reach. This is anticipated to fuel the demand for the mining drill bits market. Furthermore, by type, the rotary drill bits segment is expected to experience rapid surge due to rise in metal mining sector especially in North America and Asia-Pacific.”
Many players have adopted product launch as
its key developmental strategy to improve its product portfolio. For instance,
in February 2017, Robit Plc launched BulrocRobit Hyper 331, a new DTH hammer at
CONEXPO 2017. The new hammer extends the group's Down-The-Hole (DTH) hammer
range from 1’ (25mm) to 33’ (838mm).
