Market Research Report on 3D Printing Market Analysis and Forecast by 2015-2025

<strong>Market</strong> <strong>Research</strong> <strong>Report</strong> on 3D Printing <strong>Market</strong>
Analysis and Forecast by 2015-2025
3D printing is one of the latest technological breakthroughs and is touted by experts to bring about
the dawn of the Third Industrial Revolution. It has myriad uses in a wide variety of industries,
including consumer goods, automotive, healthcare, aerospace, jewelry, and architecture. Almost
every industry requiring design precision can benefit from 3D printing, due to its capability of
automation and customization. Its many advantages are expected to propel the global market to a
total value of over US$20 billion by 2025.
Despite its recent proliferation, 3D printing began in the 1980s. The 2009 expiry of patents that had
limited the technology to the upper echelons of technological progress allowed the production of
generic 3D printers, bringing the technology to the masses as well as the lower rungs of the
hierarchy of global technology giants.
Pricing Factors Restrict Growth, Present Innovation Opportunity in 3D Printing <strong>Market</strong>
In its short life in the public domain, so to speak, the primary constraint on the global 3D printing
market has been the high costs of high-quality printers. This factor has replicated the effect of the
earlier patents, limiting the usage of 3D printing among a slightly larger niche than before.
This presents an opportunity for innovation of low-cost 3D printers. Success in bringing about
efficient utilization of raw materials and technological progression to allow the same will determine
the future of the 3D printing market.
However, this hasn’t stopped the industrial sector from making use of 3D printing on a large scale
and this expected to remain a major factor boosting demand from the global 3D printing market.
Industries such as healthcare, jewelry, architecture, and automotive are expected to drive the 3D
printing market.

Dentistry Applications to Drive Global 3D Printing <strong>Market</strong>
Among the healthcare sector’s utilization of 3D printing, valued at US$141 million, dentistry is a
leading end user of 3D printing. The need for easy production of orthopedic implants in cosmetic
and dental reconstruction surgery means that 3D printing has a huge scope for growth in the
healthcare sector. The market is expected to generate demand worth US$868 million from the
healthcare sector by 2025.
Other major industries using 3D printing are architecture, jewelry, and design arts, which are
expected to show a collective CAGR of 20% from 2015 to 2025.
The automotive industry is also expected to be a major consumer of the 3D printing market, due to
its usage in the manufacture of automotive components and other non-design innovations. A
prominent example of the latter is German car giant BMW’s use of 3D printing to produce

equipment that helps factory workers ease the load on their hands. The virtually endless
customizability of 3D printed products is hugely beneficial in the automotive and aerospace
industries.
Key Players of the Global 3D Printing <strong>Market</strong>
The 3D printing market is dominated by manufacturers such as ZMorph, Wanhao, Solidscape,
EFESTO, Arcam, ExOne, Realizer, Optomec, and Voxeljet.
Companies such as automotive giants BMW and Ford, aerospace giants Boeing and Lockheed
Martin, and sportswear manufacturer Reebok are some of the most prominent companies making
large-scale use of 3D printing.
