Market Dynamics

Introduction:

Motor lamination is a term used to describe thin sheets of steel layered on top of one another to create the core of electric motors, minimizing energy losses through eddy currents. The laminations are insulated from one another and increase motor efficiency. Motor lamination is used in electric motors, transformers, generators, and other electromagnetic devices that need efficient magnetic flux.

The motor lamination industry is experiencing strong growth, driven by the spread of electric mobility, smart devices, and automated systems. Developments in silicon steel grades and advanced die tooling improve magnetic flux density and reduce core losses. Mandates from regulations for increased efficiency requirements in electric drives also drive higher adoption.

Market Drivers: 

Surge in Electric Vehicle Production

• The worldwide electric vehicle (EV) market is estimated to grow to 372.38 million units by 2030, with a strong demand for high-performance motor laminations.
• With increasing EV manufacturing, the demand for light, high-torque motors increases. High-performance motor laminations with superior magnetic properties are key to improving energy efficiency, reducing core losses, and enhancing traction motor performance.
• This increase in EV manufacturing directly influences the demand for high-end laminations with lower power loss and improved thermal conductivity, essential for achieving strict emission standards and increasing overall motor efficiency.

Market Challenges: 

Increased Initial Investments in Lamination Technologies

• The manufacturing process of motor lamination sheets involves several processes, such as bonding, welding, and stamping, all of which need huge investments in sophisticated machinery.
• R. Bourgeois and Tempel make use of advanced technologies, such as the Full-bond process and Glulock, to improve motor efficiency. But the exorbitant prices of specialized equipment, such as stacked stator lamination welding equipment (USD 30,000) and stamping equipment (USD 50,000), coupled with their high energy needs and maintenance costs, pose economic burdens. They add to the total capital cost, which could be a limitation to the development of the motor lamination market.

Market Opportunities: 

Technological Advancements in Lamination Sheets

• The performance of the motor is directly affected by the quality of these sheets. With time, lamination manufacturing technologies have been aimed at minimizing fabrication costs and reducing production time.
• Important methods such as bonding, stamping, and welding are widely used in the production of lamination sheets. The application of precision techniques makes it possible to fabricate the rotor and stator from the same material.
• New technologies like the full bond technique and Glulock technology are likely to have a strong influence on the motor lamination market, leading demand for high-performance laminations with enhanced efficiency and durability during the forecast period.

Segments Analysis

By Electric Vehicle Type Analysis

“The BEV segment for the motor lamination market is estimated to be the largest market during the forecast period.”

• Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs) are the leader in the motor lamination sector today, occupying a 58.1% share of the EV market with the world in the process of shifting towards zero-emission transportation.
• Incentives from the government and progress in battery technology have propelled BEV adoption rates, raising the demand for motor laminations to improve motor efficiency.
• Initiatives such as the EU's planned 2035 petrol/diesel ban and China's goal for 40% EV sales in 2030 also drive the trend. Further, BEVs are increasingly incorporating advanced automotive solutions to enhance performance and comfort, thus becoming more dependent on precision-engineered lamination stacks.

By Vehicle Type Analysis

“Passenger Car segment for the motor lamination market is estimated to be the largest market during the forecast period.”

• The passenger car segment is likely to dominate the market share in the motor lamination market for the vehicle type. With increasing investments in R&D and manufacturing capacity of leading automotive players across various regions, the demand for motors for comfort and safety applications is sure to register growth.
• Adoption of strict safety regulatory requirements necessitates the utilization of ABS and electronic stability controls, ultimately leading to increased demand for motors.
• Growing demand for luxury and premium cars with extra comfort applications, motors will be expected to drive the demand for motors and, consequently, the market through the forecast period.

Regional Analysis

“Asia Pacific is likely to be the largest market during the forecast period.”

• Asia Pacific has also become a hub for motor vehicle production in recent times. The rise in motor vehicle production in the region is mainly due to the enabling regulatory policies of the government, such as 'Make in India'.
• China has become the top export hub for motor vehicle production because of the availability of low-cost capital, raw materials, and a skilled workforce to serve other regions.
• Almost all major automations and additions to performance, safety, and comfort in cars are primarily motor-powered, which means the demand for motor laminations will increase in tandem with the demand for motors. Therefore, taking into account the above points, it is clear that the market for motor lamination will increase considerably in the years to come.
