The 3D
printing material market has undergone significant change in recent years, with
3D printing materials evolving from thermoplastics
and photopolymers to environment friendly 3D printing materials. The rising
wave of 3D additive manufacturing is creating huge potential for new 3D
printing material applications and driving demand for 3D printing
material/systems. The major drivers for this market are rapid acceptance of 3D
printing technology from prototyping, product designing, and concept modelling,
flexibility in use of multiple materials for 3D printing, and growing awareness
and market penetration of 3D printing technology in various end-use industries,
such as medical, aerospace, automotive, and consumer products.
In
this market, photopolymers, thermoplastics, metals, and ceramics are the major
material technologies used in 3D printing additives manufacturing. Innovation
in 3D printing materials technology, increasing spending on research and
development, ease of manufacturing of custom products, rapid product
development at low cost, and reduce material wastage are the major drivers of
3D printing material market. Photopolymers is the largest segment of 3D
printing materials market and is growing at an above average growth. Thermoplastics
and photopolymers are the best material technologies on the basis of build time
and part complexity. In terms of cost and ease of application, thermoplastics
are much better than other material technologies.
Within the technology trends in 3D printing
material market, Automotive is one of the fastest growing sectors due to
continuously focuses on development of new and innovative product. 3D printing
is growing its application in making prototypes, design testing, small parts
manufacturing, and also in printing large automotive parts.
Asia Pacific will be the largest region and it
is also expected to witness the highest growth over the over the forecast
period due to launch of innovative 3D printer and materials for use in various
end use industries resulted in breakthrough growth in demand of for printing
materials in the Asia Pacific region and entry of additive manufacturing technology
in low penetrated market created growth opportunity for 3D printing materials.
Emerging
technology trends, which have a direct impact on the dynamics of the industry,
include combining different materials in one 3D printer, custom printing for
medical industry and bio-printing, increasing use of metal 3D printing.
Stratasys, 3D Systems, The ExOne Company, EOS, and EnvisionTech are among the
major technology providers in the 3D printing material market.
