Global 3D Printing Market Demand Projected to Reach $5 Billion in 2017

ReportsnReports.com offers 3D printing market and 3D printer industry research reports covering analysis and forecasts for 3D technology, applications as well as major vendors' patent deployment in the 3D printer market.

Global 3D printing market demand is projected to rise more than 20% per year to $5 billion in 2017 as per the research report World 3D Printing to 2017 available at http://www.reportsnreports.com/reports/272154-world-3d-printing-to-2017.html . Some of the fastest growth will be seen in the medical and dental market, with especially good opportunities expected in dental applications such as braces, prostheses, crowns, bridges, dental aligners, and models for dental restoration procedures. Other leading markets for 3D printing products include consumer products (e.g., jewelry, toys, fashion, consumer electronics), automotive, and aerospace, with the latter expected to see above-average growth. For instance, in 2013 General Electric announced plans to use 3D printers to produce fuel nozzles for its next-generation jet engine. These nozzles are expected to be lighter and stronger than those produced using conventional production techniques.

In another report titled "3D Printing Market by Technology (SLA, SLS, EBM, FDM, EBM, LOM, 3DP), Materials (Polymers, Metal), Application (Aerospace, Automotive, Consumer, Healthcare, Government & Defense) & Geography (Americas, Europe, APAC & ROW) (2013 - 2020)" (http://www.reportsnreports.com/reports/270520-3d-printing-market-by-technology-sla-sls-ebm-fdm-ebm-lom-3dp-materials-polymers-metal-application-aerospace-automotive-consumer-healthcare-government-defense-geography-americas-europe-apac-row-2013-2020-.html ), the global 3D printing industry is segmented on the basis of technology, material, application, and geography. The technology segment comprises of Stereo lithography (SLA), Laser Sintering, Electron Beam Melting (EBM), Fused Disposition Modeling (FDM), Laminated Object manufacturing (LOM), Three Dimensional Inkjet printing (3DP), and other proprietary technologies. The global 3D printing market by material comprises polymers, metals/alloys, and others (ceramics, sand, and paper). The application segment includes aerospace industry, automotive consumer products, healthcare, government and defense, industrial/business machines, education & research, and others (arts, architecture). Health care and aerospace are the two fastest growing application areas for 3D printing. The stringent requirements such as light weight and accurate & precise design requirements for airplanes parts are the major driving factors behind the growth of 3D printing in the aerospace industry, over traditional manufacturing methods. However, the increasing medical procedures' volumes due to the growing population, rising income levels, low labor costs, and increasing health awareness are responsible for the tremendous growth of 3D printing in healthcare sector, as well.

Developing economies such as China and India provide tremendous growth opportunities for the 3D printing manufacturing technologies, majorly, due to the rise in lifestyle and general income levels. For instance, China is aggressively taking initiatives such as huge investment and government funding in R&D, to promote 3D printing as a manufacturing technique.
