Global Cutting Tools Market Insights, Forecast to 2025

In the context of machining, a cutting tool or cutter is any tool that is used to remove material from the workpiece by means of shear deformation. Cutting may be accomplished by single-point or multipoint tools. Single-point tools are used in turning, shaping, planing and similar operations, and remove material by means of one cutting edge. Milling and drilling tools are often multipoint tools. Grinding tools are also multipoint tools. Each grain of abrasive functions as a microscopic single-point cutting edge (although of high negative rake angle), and shears a tiny chip.
In the Metal Cutting Tools market, Sandvik, Kennametal, Iscar, OSG respectively account for 3.88%, 1.62%, 1.24%, 1.06% market share in 2017, and the sum of the market share percentage held by the largest number of firms in this industry is less than 50%, which indicate that the Metal Cutting Tools industry is perfectly competitive and is considered low concentration. The reason is the manufacturing technology of Metal Cutting Tools is relatively more mature than some high-tech equipment.
