The study involved major activities in estimating the hydraulics market size. Exhaustive secondary research was done to collect information on the market under study. The next step was to validate these findings, assumptions, and sizing from industry experts across the value chain using primary research. Different approaches, such as top-down and bottom-up, were employed to estimate the total market size. After that, the market breakup and data triangulation procedures were followed to estimate the size of the segments and subsegments of the hydraulics market.
Secondary Research
The revenue of companies offering components for hydraulic systems is calculated using secondary data available through paid and unpaid sources, analyzing the product portfolios of the major companies in the ecosystem, and rating them by their performance and quality. Various sources were referred to in the secondary research process to identify and collect information for this study. The secondary sources include annual reports, press releases, investor presentations of companies, white papers, journals, certified publications, and articles from recognized authors, directories, and databases. In the secondary research process, various secondary sources were referred to identify and collect information related to the study. Secondary sources included annual reports, press releases, investor presentations of vendors, forums, certified publications, and whitepapers. The secondary research was used to obtain critical information on the industry's value chain, the total pool of key players, market classification, and segmentation from the market- and technology-oriented perspectives.
Primary Research
Extensive primary research was conducted after understanding and analyzing the current scenario of the hydraulics market through secondary research. Several primary interviews were conducted with the key opinion leaders from the demand and supply sides across four main regions—North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Rest of the World. Approximately 30% of the primary interviews were conducted with the demand-side respondents, while approximately 70% were conducted with the supply-side respondents. The primary data was also collected through questionnaires, emails, and telephone interviews.
After interacting with industry experts, brief sessions were conducted with highly experienced independent consultants to reinforce the findings from our primary interview participants. This, along with the in-house subject-matter experts’ opinions, has led us to the findings as described in the remainder of this report. The breakdown of primary respondents is as follows:
Note: Others include vice presidents, senior managers, project managers, and analysts.

Market Definition
Hydraulics is a mechanical system utilizing liquid pressure to generate, control, and transmit power. Hydraulic systems use fluid—usually oil or water—to perform tasks such as lifting, pressing, drilling, or moving mechanical components in machinery and equipment. These systems often employ cylinders to move pistons and generate force. They play a pivotal role in multiple industries, including construction, aerospace, and automotive, facilitating efficiency in moving loads. The technology's reliance on liquid power enables the execution of various mechanical actions across industrial and mobile equipment. Hydraulic machinery uses fluid power to generate, control, and transmit force, employing liquids to operate cranes, lifts, and excavators for various industrial applications.
