3D printing is referred as additive printing technology which is used in developing the objects with digital file and variety of printing materials. This technique is used in different verticals like aerospace & defence, healthcare, construction and others. As the increased government support, a high degree of accuracy, efficient use of raw materials are propelling the 3D printing markets. These markets are estimated to witness significant growth within the forecasting period with CAGR of 26.75%.
Global 3D Printing Market Size & Growth:
Global 3D printing market is valued at $26.51 billion in 2018 and estimated to reach a value of $33.74 billion in 2024 at CAGR of 26.75%. Key points like reduction in human error and use of multiple materials for printing, customization of products with reducing cost and time and government investment in 3D products are accelerating this market and the factors like limited availability and the high cost of materials, lack of skilled labor and size of outputs generated are hampering the market growth.
