Cost-effectiveness is also a crucial factor. Although the initial costs for custom machined parts may be higher than mass-produced components, the long-term savings can be significant. Custom parts often lead to improved performance, reduced maintenance costs, and increased product lifespan. Moreover, manufacturers can minimize waste by producing only what is necessary, aligning with modern sustainability goals.

Materials technology has also improved, leading to the development of corrosion-resistant and high-temperature materials that enhance the durability and longevity of pumps and valves. This extends their range of applications and reduces maintenance costs.

Furthermore, the shift towards shared mobility solutions presents both challenges and opportunities for OEMs. Car-sharing and ride-hailing services are gaining traction, compelling traditional manufacturers to rethink their business models. Collaborations with technology firms to integrate services and offer seamless mobility solutions are becoming more common.
