The forge blower or fan refers to an equipment that is used in the blacksmith’s workshop to provide a constant air supply to the bottom of the fire to help with the combustion. The forge blowers are utilized in the blacksmith workshop to craft the iron and metal objects by supplying air filled with oxygen to the base of the fire. The forge blower consists of electric motor that helps in consistent supply of air and control the temperature of the fire. The forge blower is categorized into modern electric blower and hand cranked fan.
COVID-19 scenario analysis:
- The demand for the forge blowers is expected to decrease in the year 2020 due to lockdown imposed by the government and low demand from blacksmith forge applications.
- COVID-19 pandemic has shut-down the production of various products in the equipment and machinery, mainly owing to the prolonged lockdown in major global countries. This has hampered the growth of the forge blowers market significantly form last few months, as is likely to continue during 2020.
- COVID-19 has already affected the sales of equipment and machinery in the first quarter of 2020 and is likely to cause a negative impact on the market growth throughout the year.
- The major demand for equipment and machinery was previously noticed form giant manufacturing countries including the U.S., Germany, Italy, the UK, and China, which is badly affected by the spread of coronavirus, thereby halting the demand for equipment and machinery.
- Further, potential impact of the lockdown is currently vague and financial recovery of companies is totally based on its cash reserves. Equipment and machinery companies can afford a full lockdown only for a few months, after which the players would have to modify their investment plans.
- Equipment and machinery manufacturers must focus on protecting their workforce, operations, and supply chains to respond toward immediate crises and find new ways of working after COVID-19 infection cases start to decrease.
