ARC Machinery Index Overview
ARC Advisory Group has been monitoring and reporting on the business trends within the machinery sector for decades. In a manner similar to our Automation Index, this new, periodic ARC report aims to provide industry participants with a snapshot of the relative health of the global machinery sector. To build this index, ARC collects published information from publicly listed machinery OEMs on a quarterly basis.
We segment the overall machinery business into six segments: packaging machinery, machine tools, heavy machinery, plastics machinery, robotics, and other machinery. This edition of the ARC Machinery Index highlights trends in the machine tool segment in particular.
For machinery manufacturing in general, we expect 2017 to be a good year, but investment growth will not reach the level achieved in the boom year of 2008. Capital expenditures in the automotive and aerospace & defense industries grew in 2016. Asia is showing a strong upturn in 2017, with other world regions showing only marginal gains. However, compared to last year, 2017 overall should prove to be a good year for the global machinery industry.
