3D Printing Metals Markets, 2018-2028

Dublin, Oct. 13, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "3D Printing Metals 2018-2028" report has been added to Research and Markets' offering. The expiration of several key powder bed fusion patents in 2016 will almost certainly drive down printer prices, which, combined with market consolidation in the form of a number of high profile acquisitions, suggests this emerging technology is now showing signs of maturity. However, at this stage it would be a mistake to underestimate the enormous potential for innovation in 3D printing of metals.

In 2017, several companies launched new printer technologies with the promise of overcoming some of the existing barriers to adoption, such as lower printer prices, faster build speeds, cheaper materials, and more. Increasing throughput and streamlining production efficiencies will drive demand growth for printers and materials substantially. Given these market trends, the analyst forecasts that the global market for 3D printing metals will reach a value of $12 billion by the year 2028. Technology and Applications In 2017, the 3D printing metals market comprises multiple different printer technologies. This report takes an in-depth look into established printer types such as Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS), Electron Beam Melting (EBM), Directed Energy Deposition (DED) and Binder Jetting. Key technological capabilities, applicable markets, SWOT analyses and key manufacturers are discussed for each established printer type. In addition, nascent printer technologies that will be commercialised in 2017 are introduced, and their technological capabilities evaluated. This report provides a detailed overview of currently supported materials for 3D printing metals, assessing production methods, raw material requirements across different printer types and their potential applications. In addition, novel methods for creating new materials for 3D printing metals are discussed. Market analysis This report forecasts the overall 3D printing metals market to 2028, with in depth discussion of currently commercialised and emerging printer technologies. The current state of the printers and materials market is analysed, and long-range forecasts from 2018-2028 for installed base, units sold and revenue per annum segmented by printer type and material are evaluated. The analyst conducted exhaustive primary research with companies positioned throughout the entire 3D printing value chain for key insights into the trends impacting growth to 2028. Over 30 company profiles have been included in the report including EOS, Concept Laser GmbH and Arcam AB, amongst others. Key questions that are answered in this report
