Polymers are also anticipated to witness significant growth during the forecast period owing to their properties such as resistance against corrosion and abrasion.
Product Definition:
Aerospace and Defense 3D Printing is the use of 3D printing technology within the aerospace and defense industries. This type of 3D printing typically involves the use of high-performance materials such as metals, composites and plastics. Aerospace and Defense 3D Printing has many benefits including reducing manufacturing lead times, lowering production costs, improving product quality and increasing design flexibility.
Metals:
Metal 3D printing is one of the fastest-growing segments in aerospace and defense industry. The growth factor for this segment is due to its ability to produce complex parts with high accuracy, which are durable in nature. It also has a wide range of applications such as jet engine components, turbine blades, aircraft interiors & exteriors and many more.
The metal 3D printing market size was valued at USD 1.8 billion in 2016.
Polymer:
Polymer is a long-chain molecule, which can be either synthetic or natural. The most commonly used polymers in aerospace and defense 3D printing are ABS, nylon, PEEK, PEI and PLA. Polymers are the most important materials for 3D printing as they provide strength to the printed parts.
Application Insights:
Aircraft was the largest application segment in 2017 and is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period. The aircraft components such as primary wing, fuselage, landing gear doors, leading and trailing edge panels are manufactured using composites. These lightweight materials reduce fuel consumption and increase range while improving safety margins for pilots in case of emergency situations.
The demand for 3D-printed parts has increased significantly owing to their low cost, high performance characteristics compared with conventional manufacturing methods such as machining or casting. In addition, these parts can be designed specifically to meet specific dimensional requirements which further improves overall aircraft efficiency by reducing weight & cost while increasing performance & versatility. UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles) are increasingly being used across a variety of applications including defense intelligence agencies for surveillance purposes and commercial companies for mapping activities among others.
Regional Analysis:
North America accounted for the largest revenue share in 2017. The U.S., being a developed nation, holds a major share in the global aerospace and defense industry owing to which it is expected to dominate the North American market over the forecast period as well. Furthermore, increasing military spending by countries such as China and India are anticipated to drive regional growth over the coming years.
Asia Pacific is estimated to be one of the fastest-growing regions due to rising demand from end-use industries such as aerospace and defense, automotive, energy & power among others across emerging economies including China and India.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for lightweight and durable aircraft components
- Growing popularity of 3D printing in the medical industry
- Rising number of defense contracts for 3D printed parts
- Advances in 3D printing technology and materials
