What is Aluminum Crankcase Market?
In an internal combustion engine, the crankcase is a frame for the crankshaft. The crankshaft is positioned below the engine-placed cylinders, the multi-cylinder engine head and engine block combined. Typically, crankcase and other structural components of the engine such as cylinders, cylinder heads, and cylinder blocks are made of cast iron or cast aluminum. The crankcase offered is designed and produced using high-quality aluminum material and superior technology. It has a very small prevalence in diesel engine cars, as diesel engine vehicles almost always use cast iron crankcase that provides better fatigue strength, stiffness, as well as lower tensile strength. It is used in various applications such as Inline Engines, V6, and V8 Engines, among others. Some of the features of aluminum crankcase products are long-lasting, durable, lightweight and others.
The market study is being classified by Type (Upper Crankcase and Lower Crankcase), by Application (Inline Engines, V6 and V8 Engines and Other) and major geographies with country level break-up.
Thyssenkrupp AG (Germany), Sandvik AB (Sweden), Nemak, S.A.B. de C.V. (Mexico), Linamar Corporation (Canada), Bluewater Thermal Solutions LLC (United States), Rockman (India) and Ryobi Die Casting (United States) are some of the key players profiled in the study.
Research Analyst at AMA predicts that Europe and North America Manufacturers will contribute to the maximum growth of Global Aluminum Crankcase market throughout the predicted period.

Market Drivers
- Increasing Usage of Aluminum Crankcase in Various Application
- Rising Demand from Automotive Industry across the World
Market Trend
- Growing Demand for Shape Memory Alloys with High Fatigue Life
Restraints
- Stringent Government Rules as well as Regulation
Opportunities
- Growing Demand from Emerging Economics such as China, India, among others
- Rising Application of Aluminum in Diesel Engine Blocks
Challenges
- Issue related to Low penetration of Aluminum Crankcase in HCV Powertrains
According to the European Government, “There is no common procedure for measuring crankcase emissions across countries. European regulations specify a functional test to confirm the absence of venting from the crankcase.” Hence, it may act as a hamper for market growth.
