Automotive Axle and Propeller Shaft Market Introduction and Overview
According to SPER Market Research, the Global Automotive Axle and Propeller Shaft Market is estimated to reach USD 49.76 billion by 2033 with a CAGR of 4.81%.
The report includes an in-depth analysis of the Global Automotive Axle and Propeller Shaft Market, including market size and trends, product mix, applications, and supplier analysis. Axles and propeller shafts in automobiles are critical components that produce momentum. Medium-carbon steel, glass fibres, thermoplastic polyamide, epoxy composite, chrome-molybdenum steel, and carbon fibres are used to make them. Axles that support the entire weight of the vehicle and transfer torque from the differential to the wheels are known as live, tandem, and dead axles. Propeller shafts, on the other hand, such as multi-piece, slip-in tube, and single-piece shaft, convey torque and rotation from an engine to the wheels of a vehicle. Axles and propeller shafts in automobiles have a variety of features, including high specific strength, power gearbox at different elevation levels, and corrosion and abrasion resistance. These components improve handling, safety, and efficiency while also providing increased clearance and a smoother ride.
- January 2020: GKN Automotive and Delta Electronics Inc. announced that they would be working together on a joint development project that would likely allow next-generation integrated 3-in-1 e-Drive systems with power classes ranging from 80kW to 155kW to be developed more quickly.
- February 2020: Gestamp created a lightweight chassis that satisfies safety regulations and will likely be used for the upcoming Skoda and Volkswagen car models in India starting in 2021. It is anticipated that Gestamp will provide the front control arms and sub frame for both German OEM car models.
Market Opportunities and Challenges
The propeller shafts and axles play a major role in the vehicle's drive train. The increasing end-user demand for a pleasant and comfortable driving experience has led to a growing body of research focused at improving the overall NVH properties of automobiles. Manufacturers of axle and propeller shafts have to make sure that their products don't transfer vibrations and noise from wheels or engines because of their contact with the ground. The NVH properties and performance of the products are thoroughly tested during the manufacturing and assembly phases of the process. This not only improves passenger comfort but also contributes to the overall structural performance of the vehicle.
The market for sophisticated propeller shafts and axles, which reduce vibration in the vehicle, will be greatly impacted by the growing demand for comfort in luxury vehicles. A certain level of passenger security has been attained through the use of advanced axle and propeller shaft technologies, which reduce friction coefficient while maintaining vehicle control. Although they are used in the automobile industry, propellers have seen a decline in demand in recent years. The expensive production costs are one thing that has been impeding this market. Propellers become weaker and less durable as a result of the fact that they are frequently constructed from less expensive materials like fiberglass and plastic.
Market Competitive Landscape
Important players in the automotive axle and propeller shaft industry are growing their market share by implementing critical tactics like new product development, product differentiation, and forming strategic partnerships and alliances with important industry players. The major players in the Global Automotive Axle and Propeller Market include: IFA Group, JTEKT Corporation, Melrose Industries Plc, Showa Corporation, ZF Friedrichshafen AG, American Axle Manufacturing, Dana Incorporated, GKN plc, Hitachi Ltd, Hyundai Wia Corporation.

COVID-19 Impact on Global Automotive Axle and Propeller Shaft Market
All of its businesses have been impacted by COVID-19 worldwide. Major companies have announced a temporary production halt owing to lockdown and to ensure the safety of their staff, which has essentially reduced demand and caused supply chain disruptions during the pandemic. Due to cash flow problems, small manufacturers had to halt component manufacturing during the COVID-19 pandemic. The market for automotive axle and propeller shafts is impacted directly by this decline in demand for automobile production as a whole. In the automotive industry, the COVID-19 crisis has led to changes like digital platforms, contactless payments, and virtual dealerships.
