X-Ray Machine Manufacturing in the US industry analysis

The X-Ray Machine Manufacturing industry has benefited from moderate growth through 2023. Manufacturers typically sell X-Ray machines and other irradiation devices at high prices, necessitating significant capital investments from healthcare providers. Also, X-Ray machines normally last a few years before buyers need to repair or place them. For these reasons, the industry is highly cyclical, with sales surging when the economy is strong and dropping off immediately after. The industry expanded for much of the period, but the pandemic constrained downstream spending. As the pandemic passes and healthcare spending recovers, revenue will grow at an estimated CAGR of 1.2% to $10.2 billion through the current period, despite a 0.8% decrease in 2023.Access to and quality of health insurance also drive the industry's growth. As more people visit physicians and gain the ability to pay for X-rays, downstream healthcare providers will have more use for new equipment. Under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), access to health insurance greatly expanded, further stimulating demand. However, as aspects of the PPACA have been rolled back or repealed, health insurance enrollment has declined, hindering revenue growth. Even so, the industry's profit margin has expanded to 6.2%.Through 2028, healthcare spending will recover from COVID-19, inciting strong growth for the industry. With the economy growing, more people will schedule appointments with specialty doctors, particularly dentists and orthodontists. Similarly, stronger economic growth will encourage hospitals and healthcare providers to purchase new, high-tech X-ray machines, contributing to a strengthening profit margin. Through the end of 2028, X-ray manufacturers' revenue will expand at an expected CAGR of 2.4% to $11.5 billion.

Trends and Insights

  • The United States' aging population will drive demand for X-ray machines. Older individuals often require bone density and other soft tissue scans that use X-ray machines.
  • Manufacturers rely on demand from hospitals. As the economy improves, individuals will visit more specialty doctors, like dentists and orthodontists, boosting demand from physicians.
  • California and Florida are home to the largest number of companies. Most medical device manufacturers in the United States are concentrated in a few highly populated states.
  • Consolidating healthcare providers and hospitals have led to larger buying groups with more negotiating power. Through programs like Medicare and Medicaid, government involvement can rapidly alter buying power.
