Aircraft Auxiliary Power Unit Gearbox Market Outlook – 2027
The global aircraft auxiliary power unit gearbox (APU) market is experiencing a significant growth due to increasing commercial & military aircraft fleet size. Aircraft auxiliary power unit is a device on an aircraft that provides energy for functions other than propulsion. The aircraft auxiliary power unit gearbox transfers power from the main shaft of the engine to an oil-cooled generator to generate electrical power for engine accessories such as the fuel control unit, the lubrication module, and cooling fan. Moreover, as per the data based on air traffic for last two decades, the air traffic has been increasing in the developing countries leading to the demand for increase in aircraft production.
COVID-19 scenario analysis:
Aircraft gearbox companies are facing short-term operational issues due to supply chain constraints and lack of site access due to the COVID-19 outbreak.
COVID-19 has forced governments to discontinue all assembly and manufacturing operations including the aircraft industry.
The complete lockdown situation in several countries due to COVID-19 has directly impacted defense organizations to delay the procurement of aircraft gearboxes from the suppliers of the aircraft gearbox.
The COVID-19 pandemic is exerting tremendous financial stress on the aircraft gearbox companies by increasing the inventory carrying cost of the aircraft gearbox.
The aircraft industry has witnessed the colossal decline in flight hours as a large number of international as well as domestic flights are getting cancelled all across the globe to curb the transmission of the COVID-19.
Top impacting factors: market scenario analysis, trends, drivers and impact analysis
Surge in aircraft production, increase in demand for lightweight gearboxes, and rise in adoption of geared turbofan are the factors that drive the global aircraft auxiliary power unit gearbox market. However, engine limitations at high altitudes and requirement of high initial investment products hinder the market growth. On the contrary, investment in R&D of open rotor engines and geared turbofan engines and trend of fuel efficient and environment friendly vehicles present new pathways in the industry.
The global aircraft auxiliary power unit gearbox market trends are as follows:
Surge in aircraft production
There is a new demand for gearboxes for aircraft assembled in the developing nations. Recently, in 2019, Airbus published global aircraft market forecast which stated that around 39,200 new passenger & freighter aircraft would be required over the next 20 years, owing to the 4.3 % global air traffic growth. In addition, Boeing published a similar market forecast, in 2019, known as the Boeing Commercial Market Outlook. According to Boeing forecast, over the next 20 years delivery of 44,040 new aircrafts will be made out of which 19,000 will be replacing older aircrafts. Moreover, the Boeing stated that the annual aircraft fleet growth rate & annual air traffic growth rate will be 3.4 % & 4.6% respectively. Moreover, increasing military aircraft upgrades, research & development of advanced military aircraft platforms, and the growing presence of major system and component manufacturers in developing nations is expected to result in a surge in aircraft production that will drive the global aircraft auxiliary power unit gearbox market.
