The automotive industry is steadily growing in North America, and it has an immense impact on the domestic economy. This industry accounts for ~3% of the national GDP in the US. Such a well-positioned industry is continuously in the need of supplies and components for cars’ engines, chassis, and other metal fixtures, which indicates the high demand for machine tool makers. EDM wires are used for various metal mold applications, such as molding steel headlights, in this industry. Manufacturers prefer employing EDM procedures for the molding and drilling of large automotive parts. Further, government initiatives to encourage investments in the automotive industry are expected to raise the demand for EDM wires in the coming years. According to The Frontier Hub, foreign direct investment (FDI) in the US automotive industry reached US$ 114.6 billion in 2018. Also, in August 2021, the US government signed an executive order that sets a new target of 50% Electric Vehicle Sales Share by 2030. The government has also allotted US$3 billion to bolster the domestic electric vehicle industry. In line with this plan, GM announced an investment of US$ 35 billion and Ford of US$ 30 billion in 2025 to boost the automotive sector. In addition, a rise in the demand for furnishing; household appliances; and consumer electronics, including smart and efficient kitchen appliances, with many people moving to developing and evolving suburbs, fuels the EDM wire market growth in the region.

Various military and commercial aircraft manufacturers have a significant presence in North America, which makes it the world’s largest aerospace market. According to Aerospace Industries Association (AIA), the aerospace industry represented 1.8% of the total US GDP, contributing US$ 382 billion to the GDP. The aerospace industry in North America has flourished on the back of the positive outlook toward adopting new technologies, the presence of a skilled workforce, and favorable economic policies and high GDP per capita in major economies in the region. In April 2021, the US Space and Missile Systems Center announced the investments of US$ 191 million, US$ 240 million, and US$ 253 million in Boeing, Lockheed Martin Corporation, and Northrop Grumman Corporation, respectively, for designing prototype payloads for the Protected Tactical Satcom program of the US Space Force. Thus, the growing aerospace industry has the potential to drive EDM wire market in North America in the coming years.

EDM wires are used in manufacturing consumer electronic devices, automotive, medical devices, and various other applications. The US automotive sector is growing rapidly due to growing automotive sales, increasing capital growth, and higher exports. Therefore, the demand for EDM wires is very high in the market. Carmakers have taken a significant market initiative, boosting the growth of the EDM wire market in the country. Major automakers announced multibillion-dollar investments in EVs and AVs.
