The laser marking machine market is projected to show steady growth during the forecast period.

Laser marking machines are sophisticated manufacturing tools that use laser technology to create permanent marks on a variety of materials. These machines combine laser, computer, and mechatronics technologies to achieve precise and non-contact engraving. They are commonly used in applications to mark serial numbers, data matrix codes, QR codes, logos, and other identification numbers on metal, plastic, and organic substances. These machines are used in numerous sectors such as automotive, aerospace, machine tools, electronics, microelectronics, medical, packaging, and military. The establishment of new manufacturing plants such as automotive, medical, and aerospace contributed to the laser marking machine market growth.

Market Drivers

• The construction of new medical equipment manufacturing plants accelerated the growth of the laser marking machine market.

Laser marking machines offer a non-contact marking process in medical products manufacturing units that eliminates the risk of contamination caused by physical contact. This feature is critical in the production of medical equipment as it ensures the highest level of safety and hygiene. These factors increased the adoption of laser marking machines in the medical industry which pushed the laser marking machine market upwards. For instance, in June 2023, OMRON Healthcare announced plans to open a manufacturing plant in Chennai. The factory will begin producing blood pressure monitors by March 2025 Additionally, in February 2023, Victrex announced a priority investment to support the expansion of its medical division, Invibio Biomaterial Solutions, including the establishment of a new product development facility in Leeds, United Kingdom.

• The establishment of automotive manufacturing plants bolsters the laser marking machine market growth.

Laser marking machines play an important role in automotive production, they aid in the creation of permanent, high-contrast markings on a variety of automotive components such as serial numbers, part numbers, barcodes, logos, and QR codes. These components allow automotive manufacturers to easily track and identify specific parts throughout the production and assembly lines. This makes it an ideal option for manufacturers to adopt laser marking machines which accelerated the market growth. For instance, in September 2023, GKN Automotive, the global leader in drive systems, opened a new manufacturing facility in Felszsolca, near Miskolc, Hungary to stay close to its OEM customers while maintaining its market-leading position. It consists of a capacity of 420,000 cars and 1.9 million engines produced every year.

• New aircraft production unit establishment drives the laser marking machine market growth.

Aircraft manufacturers required advanced laser marking machines as they allow for the application of unique codes, serial numbers, and barcodes to aircraft parts which increased the adoption of laser marking machines in the aerospace industry. This aids in tracking and tracing each component throughout its entire life cycle, which includes manufacturing, assembly, maintenance, and repairs. It ensures efficient inventory management and increases safety by allowing for the quick identification of faulty parts. Hence, in September 2022, De Havilland Canada announced the opening of a new aircraft manufacturing facility in Wheatland County, Alberta, which includes an innovative aircraft assembly facility as well as parts manufacturing facilities.

Asia Pacific is expected to witness significant growth in the laser marking machine market.

Asia Pacific is projected to account for a significant share of the laser marking machine market due to the establishment of new manufacturing plants in the region. For instance, in December 2023, Mitsubishi Electric established a manufacturing plant for advanced factory automation systems in Maharashtra, India, Additionally, in March 2022, Wipro GE Healthcare announced the opening of a new manufacturing facility in Bengaluru, India, as part of the Indian government's Production Linked Incentive (PLI) Scheme. In October 2022, The Prime Minister of India launched the country's first private-sector C-295 transport aircraft production plant in Vadodara, Gujarat.

Market Restraints

• The high upfront cost will restrain the growth of the laser marking machine market.

Laser marking machines can be quite expensive when compared to other marking methods as they typically use high-quality components such as mirrors, lenses, and motors which can be highly expensive for small enterprises. This may limit the adoption of laser marking machines in numerous sectors which may affect the market growth.

Market Developments

• June 2023- Videojet Technologies launched the Videojet 3350 and Videojet 3350 Smart Focus Laser Marking Systems. These lasers are intended for high-speed marking of sharp, complex codes in the food, beverage, cosmetics, pharmaceutical, packaging, and extrusion industries and both systems provide nearly limitless font, code, and graphic options.
• September 2022- Epilog Laser announced the launch of the new fusion maker laser system, which is designed with industrial components that resist heavy use and production in large quantities. The Fusion Maker is the first laser system created to allow the home user and home business owner to utilize an industrially-built laser machine.
