"Growing scope of magnetron sputtering driving the market growth"

Growing scope and applications of magnetron sputtering thin film deposition are driving the demand for magnetron sputtering systems market across the globe. Magnetron sputtering is a thin film deposition technology that allows the deposition of metal, alloys ceramic, and polymer on a number of substrate material. With the technological advancement in the coating processes, this process is widely used in various applications namely, metal industry, solar cells, biomedical applications, and optical & electrical components. Increasing technological advancement in product development and growing demand for high–quality functional films in various industries such as electronics, optics, and biomedical is expected to further propagate the magnetron sputtering systems market with a significant growth rate during the forecast period.

In many industrial applications, magnetron sputtering out-performed traditional coating techniques. However, their market penetration is limited to certain niche sectors only and traditional coating technologies still capture the major share of the coating industry market. One of the main reasons for limited industry penetration is due to the high cost of sputter and other PVD coated components. As per Oerlikon Balzers Company, magnetron sputtering can add-up to the cost of tool up to 35% compared to 8% when gas nitro-carburizing treatment, it can increase the tool life up to 32 times of the uncoated tools.

Overall, the global magnetron sputtering systems market was valued at US$ 2.51 Bn in 2021 and expected to reach over US$ 4.06 Bn in 2030, growing at a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period.
