This report, from Stratview Research, studies the global helicopter blade market over the period 2010 to 2021. The report provides detailed insights on the market dynamics to enable informed business decision making and growth strategy formulation based on the opportunities present in the market.

The Global Helicopter Blade Market: Highlights

The helicopter rotor blade performs the same function as an airplane's wing. It provides lift as the blades rotate. A helicopter pilot can affect the lift by changing the rotor's revolutions per minute or its angle of attack, which refers to the angle of the rotary wing in relation to the oncoming wind. Rotor blades are made out of various materials, including aluminum, composites, steel, or titanium, with abrasion shields along the leading edge.

The composite materials’ potential in the structural applications has been recognized since long by the Helicopter manufacturers. Military helicopters use composites ranging from 50% to 80% of the total airframe weight. The usage of composites varies significantly in civil helicopters. Some civil helicopter manufacturers are using composites extensively whereas some are using them mainly in the non-structural applications. But, in rotor and tail blades, composite materials are gaining market traction and replacing traditional materials, such as aluminum and steel.

The global helicopter blade (rotor and tail) market offers a healthy growth opportunity during the forecast period of 2016 to 2021. Increasing demand of helicopters in the developing regions, such as China and India, technology advancement, recovering oil & gas prices are the key drivers in the global helicopter blade market. Composite materials are increasingly used in both the rotor and tail blades of Helicopters.

The supply chain of this market comprises raw material manufacturers, helicopter rotor and tail blade manufacturers, helicopter OEMs, and end users, such as oil & gas companies, military division of countries. The raw material manufacturers are Rio Tinto, Toray, AGY Holdings, Owens Corning, Hexcel, and Rohacell. The key helicopter OEMs are Eurocopter (A division of EADS), Bell Helicopter, Sikorsky Aircraft (A division of United Technologies Co.), Robinson, Boeing, Hindustan Aeronautics Limited, and Kaman Aerospace.

There are independent rotor and tail blade manufacturers as well as OEMs with in-house blade manufacturing capability. Most of the OEMs are currently having captive manufacturing of both rotor and tail blades. They do not sell rotor and tail blades to other OEMs. The key helicopter blade manufacturers are Bell Helicopter, Boeing Helicopter, Carson Helicopters, Ducommun AeroStructures, Eagle Technologies, Eurocopter, GKN Aerospace, Hindustan Aeronautics Limited, Kaman Aerosystems, Robinson Helicopter Co., Sikorsky Aircraft, and Van Horn Aviation. New product development, collaboration with OEMs, and long term contacts are the key strategies adopted by the key players to gain competitive edge in the market.
