Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Fiber Laser Market

The COVID-19 pandemic has been adversely affecting every business globally since December 2019. The continuous growth in the number of infected patients compelled governments to put a bar on the transportation of humans and goods. The manufacturing sector witnessed severe losses due to temporary factory shutdowns and low production volumes, which hindered the growth of the electronics & semiconductor, automotive, and retail sectors. Additionally, the social or physical distancing measures imposed by governments put limitations on the operations of logistics and other service providers. As a result, the applications of fiber laser solution across all regions are declined. Despite the disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the trade is likely to surge in the future as businesses are getting resumed after a long lockdown. With the social distancing measures in effect, the automotive, electronics & semiconductor, and other manufacturing industries have resumed their operations with less workforce capacity.
