Market Overview:
The global 3D printing materials market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 16.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing demand for 3D printing technology across various industries, such as aerospace, military, and medical. In addition, the growing awareness about the benefits of 3D printing technology is also contributing to the growth of this market. The global 3D printing materials market can be segmented on the basis of type into engineering plastics, photosensitive resin, metallic material, and ceramic material. Of these segments, engineering plastics is expected to account for a major share in terms of revenue in 2018 owing to its high usage in various end-use industries such as automotive and aerospace. However, photosensitive resin is projected to grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast period due its increasing use in medical applications. On the basis of application,the global 3D printing materialsmarket can be divided into aerospace field,,military field,,medicine field,,and other applications .
Product Definition:
3D printing materials are the substances used in 3D printing. They can be divided into two categories: thermoplastics and thermosets. Thermoplastics are heated until they are liquid, then they are extruded through a nozzle to create a three-dimensional object. Thermosets set after being exposed to heat or radiation, and cannot be melted again without causing damage to the object.
Engineering Plastics:
Engineering plastics are high-performance materials that have wide applications in the automotive, construction and electronics industries. The global engineering plastics market size was valued at USD 32.5 billion in 2016 and is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to its increasing demand from 3D printing industry.
The growing popularity of additive manufacturing technology has triggered a surge in demand for engineering plastics due to their ability to create complex geometries with higher accuracy.
Photosensitive Resin:
The photosensitive resin is a thermosetting resin that undergoes phase change when exposed to light. The material changes its physical properties such as hardness, viscosity and flow behavior on being exposed to light. These resins are used in the formulation of 3D printing materials for applications such as prototyping and production of objects from digital data files.
Application Insights:
The aerospace field was the largest application segment in 2017 and is expected to maintain its lead over the forecast period. The increasing need for replacing or refurbishing old parts or aircraft components due to their high mechanical strength, lightweight properties, and ability to meet stringent requirements of designers & engineers in terms of precision, durability, and complexity is projected to drive demand for 3D printing materials over the coming years.
3D printing has numerous applications across several industries including automotive/transportation; architecture; electronics & semiconductor; food & beverage (F&B); medical devices; manufacturing sector among others. In F&B industry, use of 3D printers has increased significantly in recent times owing to advantages such as cost-effectiveness compared with conventional production methods such as injection molding along with flexibility and ease of use when designing products especially edible ones which have a three dimensional shape but are printed using two dimensional data only.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in terms of revenue share in 2017. The region is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period owing to increasing demand for 3D printers and their application areas. Europe accounted for a significant share of global revenue due to high demand from several major industries including automotive, aerospace, defense & military, electronics among others.
Asia Pacific is projected to be one of the fastest-growing regions during the forecast period owing to rapid industrialization and developing economies such as China and India among others. In addition, rising investments by various governments are anticipated boost regional growth over the next eight years. For instance, Chinese government has implemented favorable policies that include tax benefits on equipment purchases along with other subsidies aimed at spurring adoption across numerous industries from healthcare & medicine field through 3D printing materials usage; ceramics material usage; metal powder bed fusion (MPG) process technology applications to other end-use markets such as automotive manufacturing industry etc.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for 3D printing technology in various industries such as automotive, aerospace, medical and dental sectors is expected to drive the growth of the 3D printing materials market over the forecast period.
- Growing popularity of desktop 3D printers is also anticipated to fuel the demand for 3D printing materials in near future.
- Rising number of patent filings pertaining to new and innovative applications of 3D printing technology is projected to boost the growth of this market during forecast period.
- Proliferation of online marketplace for buying and selling 3D printing materials is likely to provide impetus to this market during next few years.
