A ball-bearing is an anti-friction component comprising two ring-like tracks with a freely rotating metal ball between them. It supports both axial and radial loads, ensures power alignment of movable objects, and facilitates efficient transmission of power. Consequently, it is widely used in the automotive, manufacturing, and construction industries across Japan. This can also be attributed to the well-established manufacturing sector in the country.
The market is primarily driven by the rising sales of passenger vehicles, in confluence with the increasing number of manufacturing units, in Japan. Additionally, leading manufacturers are upgrading the working capability of ball bearings at lower costs. They are also focusing on lowering torque, increasing temperature range, reducing weight, decreasing energy consumption, enhancing the lifecycle and refining friction resistance. Besides this, they have developed sensor components for ball bearings, which are utilized in conveyors, road rollers and electric motors. However, the increasing cases of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) have disrupted the market growth. The market is expected to recover once the situation becomes under control and lockdown relaxations are introduced.
