Metal Cutting Gas Market: A Comprehensive Analysis of Industry Trends, Applications, and Growth Opportunities

The metal cutting gas industry is a sector within the broader industrial gases industry that focuses on providing gases and gas-related solutions for various metal cutting processes. Metal cutting is a fundamental manufacturing operation used in industries such as automotive, aerospace, construction, and manufacturing. It involves the removal of material from metal workpieces to achieve desired shapes and sizes.

According to the report, the global metal cutting gas industry generated $2.7 billion in 2021, and is anticipated to generate $4.0 billion by 2031, witnessing a CAGR of 4.2% from 2022 to 2031.

The primary gases used in metal cutting processes are oxygen and acetylene. These gases are commonly employed in oxy-fuel cutting, which is a thermal cutting process. Here's how it works:

𝐎𝐱𝐲-𝐅𝐮𝐞𝐥 𝐂𝐮𝐭𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠: Oxy-fuel cutting is a process that uses a mixture of oxygen and acetylene (or other fuel gases like propane) to generate a high-temperature flame. This flame is directed onto the metal workpiece, and the intense heat causes the metal to oxidize (burn) and be blown away in the form of molten metal or slag. The oxygen supports combustion, while the fuel gas provides the heat source.

The surge in population coupled with rapid urbanization has surged the growth of the construction sector in both developed and developing economies, where metal-cutting gases are popularly used in the construction industry for cutting, welding, and designing various steel materials. This factor drives the growth of the global metal cutting gas market. However, lack of technical expertise and adoption of high-range advanced metal cutting machinery restrict the market growth.

𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐦𝐚 𝐂𝐮𝐭𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠: Plasma cutting is another common method used for metal cutting. In this process, a high-velocity jet of ionized gas (plasma) is used to melt and blow away the metal. While oxygen or air is often used as the plasma gas, other gases can also be used for specific applications.

𝐋𝐚𝐬𝐞𝐫 𝐂𝐮𝐭𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠: Although not considered a "gas" cutting method, laser cutting is a popular alternative to traditional thermal cutting processes. It uses a high-powered laser beam to melt and vaporize the metal, resulting in precise and clean cuts. Gases may still play a role in assisting the cutting process, such as using nitrogen as an assist gas to improve edge quality in laser cutting.

The acetylene segment held the highest market share in 2021, accounting for nearly two-fifths of the global metal cutting gas market, and is estimated to maintain its leadership status throughout the forecast period. This segment is projected to manifest the highest CAGR of 4.5% from 2022 to 2031. Among all other gases, acetylene can produce the hottest flame owing to which it is widely used in industrial applications.

Gas Supply: Companies in this industry supply compressed gases like oxygen, acetylene, nitrogen, and others in cylinders, liquid form, or bulk for metal cutting applications.

Gas Equipment: They offer equipment and systems for gas storage, handling, and delivery, including regulators, torches, hoses, and gas distribution systems.

The metal and metal fabrication segment held the highest market share in 2021, accounting for nearly one-thirds of the global metal cutting gas market, and is estimated to maintain its leadership status throughout the forecast period. Ongoing infrastructure activities and increase in the usage of prefabricated structures in the construction industry are accelerating the segment growth. However, the aerospace segment is projected to manifest the highest CAGR of 4.6% from 2022 to 2031.

Gas Safety: Ensuring safety is crucial in metal cutting applications. The industry provides safety equipment, training, and guidelines to prevent accidents and ensure the proper handling of gases.

Gas Applications: The industry also provides expertise in selecting the right gases and equipment for specific metal cutting applications to optimize efficiency, quality, and cost-effectiveness.

Asia-Pacific held the highest market share in terms of revenue in 2021, accounting for nearly half of the global metal cutting gas market, and is likely to dominate the market during the forecast period. This region is expected to witness the fastest CAGR of 4.6% from 2022 to 2031. Several manufacturers have increased the production capacities for metal cutting gases. For instance, Indian Oil Corporation Ltd. has launched Indane NANOCUT that enhances the efficiency of LPG as cutting gas in terms of high flame temperature, low oxygen consumption, and reduces cylinder inventory, thereby leading to the better economy to the user.

The metal cutting gas industry plays a vital role in supporting various manufacturing sectors by supplying the gases and solutions needed for efficient and precise metal cutting processes. It contributes to the production of a wide range of metal products and components used in everyday life and various industries.
