The maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) services are an essential and unavoidable aspect of every business. A proper MRO of an aircraft or its component can help businesses avoid significant risks to their survival. Thus, aviation industry players majorly focus on creating appropriate business processes and infrastructure to support industry growth. The rising demand for air travel worldwide is encouraging aircraft manufacturers such as Airbus and Boeing to increase their production volumes and offer maintenance services for these aircraft as well. With the constant growth in air traffic,

These are heydays for the commercial aviation industry as well as businesses supporting it from the maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) sector. For the first time in airline history, carriers recorded three consecutive years of record or near record profits, thanks to constrained fuel prices and operational efficiencies. Rising demand for air travel is keeping production lines at aircraft, engine, and component manufacturers busy and setting records. Lower oil prices, along with the willingness of airlines to spend on upkeep, are resulting in delayed retirements of older jets, which in turn provide more business for the MRO industry because of their additional servicing needs. And despite recent political instability and rising global tensions, aviation seems headed for more of the same—at least over the short term.

Furthermore, the report provides information about the strategies adopted by the key players to sustain the competition and increase their market share.

There are several on-going projects in private sector companies, in the end-user segment, such as oil and gas, mining, and construction. As a result, the metal fabrication industry in Canada is not expected to witness a sudden surge, and remain stable over the next few years. The industry is highly fragmented due the presence of a large number of small- and medium-sized companies.  Metal fabrication is expected to have a large scope in end-user segments, such as oil and gas, mining, construction, aerospace, power generation, and ship building.  The reshoring of various manufacturing activities in Canada had a positive impact on the steel fabrication industry in the country. Automotive companies and other manufacturing companies that require fabricated steel products have been outsourcing majority of their businesses to low-cost countries, like China. Government initiatives and increasing labor cost in low-cost countries, in comparison to Canada, have attracted the manufacturers to shift production to Canada.  Majority of the metal fabrication companies in Canada have been adhering to the traditional manufacturing practices, and the adoption of advanced technologies in the industry has been very low.

The gas leak detection systems are majorly used in the oil and gas industry to detect leaks on drilling platforms (upstream), pipelines, trailers and tanker vessels (midstream), and refining & storage facilities (downstream). It is necessary to detect, monitor, and repair leakage immediately due to the highly combustible nature of oil and gas products. Many countries are focusing on expanding the oil and gas pipeline networks as it is considered the safest and most cost-effective mode of transportation. Pipelines enable the safe transportation of oil and gas through urban areas with minimal obstructions. Multiple cross-country oil and gas pipelines are being planned for the faster transportation of hydrocarbons and are expected to propel the growth of the lead detection and repair systems market.

The consumables segment includes automotive goods that need to be changed recurrently as they are used up or worn out as the vehicle functions. Consumables in a vehicle are lubricants, batteries, fuel, coolants, and tires.The spare parts segment includes crash parts, repair materials, supplementary mechanical parts, repair materials, and automotive tools used in the repair service delivery

An industrial shredder can shred all kinds of materials such as tires, car wrecks, metals, plastics, wood, and garbage. However, the shredding process depends on the machine's design and size. Shredders are available in numerous sizes and designs. Design variations include horizontal hammer mills, vertical hammer mills, and slow speed and shear-type shredders of single, dual, triple, and quad shaft design. It also includes shaft grinders of single or dual-shaft design, knife hogs, granulators, raspers, flails, mawlers, cracker mills, and refining mills.

Horizontal machining centers are configured with a spindle placed in horizontal orientation, facilitating uninterrupted manufacturing. A two-pallet work changer can be attached on one side of the work surface, while the CNC machining center is at work with another workpiece at a different surface. Gravity pulls the workpiece out from the machine after completion, allowing lesser clean-up time and longer tool life.The CNC horizontal machining centers have the capability of performing machining operations on objects thrice the size of those handled by vertical machining centers.

The global marine deck machinery market is dependent on the performance of the global shipbuilding industry. This is because marine deck machineries are essential for water-borne vehicles such as boats, cruises, merchant and passenger ships, tankers, and bulk carriers to move on water. Therefore, a greater demand for building new ships will likely lead to higher demand for marine deck machineries. Many countries lack the essential natural resources to produce various consumer goods, because of which these nations are heavily dependent on the shipping industry to carry out trade on a global scale.

Line maintenance is a part of aircraft MRO, which refers to the works on discrepancies as per the requirements of the flight crew in order to ensure airworthy condition of the aircraft. These works are conducted before or in between flight operations on a regular basis. Line maintenance involves two components: labor and materials. Some of the line maintenance activities are A checks, weekly/overnight checks, daily checks, transit checks, and pre-flight checks.
