Portugal Cutting Tools Market Market to Grow at a CAGR of 4.2% to reach US$ 119.24 million from 2022 to 2028

The Portugal cutting tools market is expected to grow from US$ 90.90 million in 2021 to US$ 119.24 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 4.2% from 2022 to 2028.

High-speed steel (HSS or HS) is a type of tool steel frequently used as a cutting tool. It's commonly found in drill bits and power saw blades. HSS is becoming more popular as a cutting tool because of its properties, including high working hardness, durability, high wear hardness, and good hardness retention. Compared to previously used carbon steels, the adoption of HSS has boosted cutting speed by four times. Manufacturers are increasingly in need of efficient and dependable machining. HSS cutting tools are finding their way into mass manufacturing and high-temperature activities because of these properties. The increased emphasis on customer satisfaction and product quality supports the growth of the Portugal cutting tools market

The demand for high-speed and dry cutting applications grows with the need for high-quality cutting tool materials. Several approaches have been tried to increase the machinability of alloys, such as the application of thin solid layers using sputtering techniques. However, such a system does not currently provide for the high-speed machining and green manufacturing requirements necessary for milling such materials.

The R&D promoters of proposals were involved in a successful exploratory project at UT Austin Portugal to develop a novel efficient green coating system with the ability to manage the release of a lubricious phase capable of improving the cutting performance of hard-to-machine materials. The coatings were deposited with a nanocomposite structure (TiN grains imbibed in a Si-N phase) and Ag in the form of nanoclusters equally dispersed in bulk, based on the TiSiAgN system. Thus, with a considerable reduction in the friction coefficient, the counterpart material's adhesion to the coating is avoided, preventing the growth of building edges, which frequently leads to cutting tool failure. The project began in April 2021 and will conclude by March 2023. The project's total eligible investment is US$ 79,173,600. Thus, increasing demand for high-speed cutting tools is driving the growth of the Portugal cutting tools market.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Portugal Cutting Tools

The COVID-19 pandemic has severely affected European countries, especially Portugal. In 2020, the Portuguese economy dropped by 7.6%, the largest annual loss since 1928. The pandemic boosted public debt by over ~€20 billion, bringing it to 133.7% of the national GDP in 2020, up from 117.7% in 2019. The government expected a budget deficit of 7.3% in 2020 and 4.3% in 2021. However, the government contained the rising unemployment due to the labor market recovery after the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. The unemployment rate accounted for over ~6.5% in 2019, a drop of 8.7% in 2020, below the government's October projection. Moreover, the government enforced a second lockdown in January 2021 to combat rising COVID-19 cases, affecting the tourism, hospitality, and retail industries. The pandemic's influence on the banking & tourist industries will be largely determined by the duration of global travel bans and retail closures. According to the Automobile Association of Portugal (ACAP), automobile production in Portugal declined by 23.6% in 2020, with 264,236 vehicles produced in 2020.
