Increasing sales of automobiles has instrumented an upsurge in demand for equipment that properly maintain the vehicles and service their key parts such as wheels and tires. Garage owners are installing advanced wheel and tire service equipment to capitalize on growing wheel replacement rate and the degrading quality of tires. Customization needs of vehicle owners is another factor driving the demand for wheel and tire service equipment. Fact.MR's latest forecast study on the global wheel and tire service equipment market projects that by the end of 2026, wheel and tire service equipment worth over US$ 4.5 Bn will be sold across the globe. The report also reveals that the global wheel and tire service equipment market will expand at a moderate CAGR of 3.5% in terms of volume, during the forecast period, 2017-2026.

In terms of volume, the global automotive exhaust sensor market will record a CAGR of 3.5% during the forecast period 2017 to 2026, as projected by a recent Fact.MR report. Nearly US$ 2,000 Mn worth of automotive exhaust sensors are estimated to be sold globally by 2026-end.

With emergence of electric and hybrid engines, the global automotive industry is witnessing a growing shift from manual to automatic transmission. The efficiency of automatic transmissions in providing a convenient mode for elevating the performance of vehicles has driven its adoption in the global automotive landscape. OEMs are developing their products and components by considering their end-use in automotive automatic transmissions.

As global food consumption levels soar through the roof, the average crop yield of agricultural sectors across the globe is being hard-pressed beyond its threshold. While depending on uncertain elements such as weather, crop quality, soil quality and incentive schemes distresses the farmers, their reliability on tractors as the key agricultural machinery remains conformed. In the future, increasing farm produce and the outcomes of several major farming activities will remain highly dependent on the effective utilization of tractors. New sensors and IoT technologies are being integrated in the production of tractors. Leading manufacturers are offering multi-functional tractors to consolidate their utility and provide a time-saving solution for farmers. Governments are implementing initiatives towards enrollment of farmers in training programs that improve the abilities in operating advanced tractors. However, high costs of tractors compel farmers towards obtaining loans, wherein agricultural funding institutions fail to slacken the high interest rates.

Increasing demand for food due to the rise of a population is resulting in the farmers focusing on reducing the cost of land preparation while increasing the yield. Hence, rotavator is considered to be the most suitable for preparing a seedbed. Manufacturers are also preparing rotavator that can be adjusted as per the depth of soil bed preparation. The companies are also developing advanced rotavator that can be used in all types of soil regardless of its condition. Different types of rotavator blades are being made depending on the moisture content and property of soil. New materials and process are also being used by manufacturers to develop blades for rotavator as it is the most important part that is directly engaged with the soil.

With soaring food consumption levels, agricultural sectors of developed as well as developing economies are striving to boost the production of farmlands and increase profitability. Agricultural mechanization continues to be recognized as a pivotal force that aims to increase farm outputs through the use of heavy fieldwork machines and equipment such as threshers. Farmers are using threshers to increase profitability of harvesting, threshing and other common farming activities. Over the years, threshers have instrumentally enhanced the productivity of labor-intensive farming activities by eliminating the drudgery associated with such agricultural systems. However, buying a thresher will continue to be unaffordable for local farmers in the future. Private farm lands and agro-industrialists will also face the brunt of high prices while adopting multiple threshers for large-scale farming applications.

The global footwear market is estimated to grow considerably due to the growth witnessed in the fashion industry. The increasing fashion consciousness among younger generation is also boosting the footwear market. Changing lifestyle and growing sports activities have propelled the market for athletic shoes. Escalating number of retail stores has also infused impulsive buying behavior among the wide range of customers that will further enhance the footwear market. The footwear industry comprises of women's shoes, men's shoes, and children's shoes with a wide variety available in plastic, leather, rubber, canvas, PU, PVC, EVA, textile, jute, and satin. The use of footwear can be super-premium, premium, economical and for casual, fashion, protective, and therapeutic use.

Combine harvesters have gained immense traction in the agricultural sector on the back of their capability of integrating processes that include reaping, threshing, and winnowing grains. Farmers across the globe have begun upgrading their machinery & tools to keep up with surging demand for agricultural products. Short harvest phases of crops is a key factor driving demand for combine harvesters.

The global seed drill machines market is projected to reach a value of nearly US$ 620 Mn by the end of 2026, according to a new research report by Fact.MR. In terms of volume, global sales are expected to surpass 290 thousand units by the end of forecast period. Broader sluggishness in the agriculture sector is likely to rub off on the prospects of seed drill machine manufacturers.
