According to TMR, the Global Balance Shaft Market is accounted for $9,978.4 million in 2017 and is expected to reach $20,215.6 million by 2026 growing at a CAGR of 8.2% during the forecast period. Some of the key factors influencing the market growth include rising demand for vehicles equipped with inline-4 cylinder engines, need for reduction in engine NvH levels and reduced co2 emissions. However, shifting focus towards electric vehicles is restraining market growth.

A balance shaft is designed to vibrate and rotate in such a way that it can reduce the vibration produced by an engine. Balance shafts are most commonly utilized in inline four-cylinder engines, which due to their design asymmetry, have an inherent second order vibration (vibrating at twice the engine RPM) that cannot be eliminated no matter how well the internal components are balanced.

Based on the manufacturing process type, Forged Balance Shaft has significant growth during the forecast period. Balance shafts can be forged from a steel bar, usually through roll forging. Forged balance shafts are widely adopted, due to their lightness, compact dimensions, and effective inherent damping.

By Geography, The Asia Pacific region has emerged as significant market for the global automotive industry. The primary reason behind this trend is the Chinese market, which has evolved into the largest producer and consumer of automobiles across the globe. Rising demand for the Inline-4 Cylinder Engine especially in the Asia-Pacific region has played a vital role in driving the balance shaft market.
