Description

The global Fluid Dynamic Bearing (FDB) market size is expected to reach $ 64.3 million by 2032, rising at a market growth of -7.8% CAGR during the forecast period (2026-2032).

A Fluid Dynamic Bearing (FDB) is a type of bearing used in rotating machinery, such as computer fans and hard disk drives, to reduce friction and noise. It is a type of hydrodynamic bearing that uses a thin layer of fluid, typically oil or grease, to separate the rotating shaft from the stationary parts of the bearing.

In an FDB, the fluid is drawn into the bearing by the rotation of the shaft, creating a thin film between the shaft and the bearing. This film of fluid provides a low-friction surface for the shaft to rotate on, reducing wear and noise. The design of an FDB also helps to distribute the load evenly across the bearing, reducing stress and increasing the lifespan of the bearing.

The Fluid Dynamic Bearing (FDB) market is highly concentrated. Since Fluid Dynamic Bearing (FDB) is mainly used in fields such as HHD spindle motors and cooling fan motors, major market players Nidec and MinebeaMitsumi both produce Fluid Dynamic Bearing Unit and parts internally and assemble finished motors for sale to downstream customers. The income statistics of each company in this report are include internal sales revenue and external sales revenue.

Nidec is the largest manufacturers of Fluid Dynamic Bearing (FDB) in the world, has a share over 78%. Other players include MinebeaMitsumi, TPI, Jialian, etc.

Asia-Pacific is the largest market of Fluid Dynamic Bearing (FDB), holds a share over 75%, followed by North America and Europe.
