Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Bi-Metal and Carbide Tipped Band Saw Blades Market

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the bi-metal band saw blade market suffered a downturn due to the insufficient supply of raw materials such as high-speed steel tooth tips and alloy steel, and disruptions in bi-metal band saw blade production processes. These blades are extensively used in steel applications in several end-use industries, such as automotive and machinery production. Per a survey conducted by the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO), production of bi-metal and carbide tipped band saw blades   in India stopped after the implementation of a lockdown in 2020. Motor vehicles, metals, chemical products, textiles, and machinery & equipment were among the most affected industries that recorded a drop in manufacturing. The COVID-19 pandemic has had a severe impact on the global automotive sector. This resulted in disruption in Chinese parts exports, the shutdown of assembly plants in the US, and large-scale interruptions in production activities across Europe. The automotive industry has been witnessing declining sales of passenger cars. However, the automotive industry has started to gain momentum and is expected to witness significant growth in the coming years. Thus, despite the losses incurred by the global bi-metal and carbide tipped band saw blades market during the COVID-19 pandemic, it is expected to revive in the coming years.

Cost-Effectiveness of Tools that Enable High-Performance In-House Metal Sawing Drives Market Growth

Bi-metal blades are used on band saws to cut carbon steel, tool steel, structural steel, stainless steel, pipes and tubes, die steel, angles and flat stock, and mixed metal components. Bi-metal teeth have superior strength that can retain the blade's edge while cutting, thus allowing for maximum flexibility without sacrificing resilience or durability. The blade back is made up of flexible spring steel, which allows the bending of the blade. Blade teeth are machined into a high-speed steel wire that is welded to the blade back using an electronic beam. The bi-metal and carbide tipped band saw blades are more robust than carbon blades, which contributes to a considerably longer blade life and high-performance sawing. The fabrication and metalworking industries require band saw blades that will last longer and produce higher-quality cuts. The bi-metal and carbide tipped band saw blades help minimize the cost per cut, alongside ensuring greater productivity. Moreover, due to the high cost of outsourcing manufacturing processes, many manufacturers and industrial operators are focusing on adopting more cost-effective and efficient ways to saw metals in their own facilities. The introduction of band sawing tools, such as bi-metal and carbide tipped band saw blades, having greater availability and control, has enabled companies to cut their own metals in-house. These blades help manufacturers lower their overall operating costs by eliminating the need of outsourcing metal cutting jobs, further enhancing production efficiency by ensuring work completion within the given timeframe. Thus, bi-metal and carbide tipped band saw blades are emerging as cost-effective cutting tools that deliver high-performance metal sawing and improve production efficiency, thereby minimizing the overall cost of production in automotive, aerospace, and metal components manufacturing facilities.
