Abstract
"The EMEA and Americas market for geared products was estimated to be just
under $6.7 billion dollars in 2004 and is forecast to grow at 4.1% over the
forecast period 2004 to 2009. The product mix is estimated to differ
significantly in both regions, however high growth for planetary gear products
and low growth in the market for worm gear products is expected in both
regions.
These are some of the many findings from the latest IMS study of the EMEA and
Americas markets for gearboxes and geared motors. The report provides market
size estimates and forecasts to 2009 for helical, bevel, worm and planetary
gear products and shows market breakdowns by product design, output torque,
sales channel and application.
An analysis of the competitive environment is also included, which shows
market shares for 2004, as well as a matrix of 80 companies active in the
market.
IMS' aim in writing this report is to provide marketing and technical
executives with an up-to-date comprehensive description of the market for
these products and to identify the trends that will affect this market over
the next five years.
