In an attempt to consolidate this wide ranging global market into a single representation of where the materials market is headed, the Mumbai, India-based market research company Bharat Book Bureau has just announced the latest report published by TechNavio-Infiniti Research, entitled “Global 3D Printing Materials Market 2016-2020”.

In their report, the TechNavio research team takes an in-depth look at the global 3D printing materials market in regard to the current market scenario, as well as prospective growth. To calculate the market size, the researchers looked into revenue generated through sales of products for various applications. All in all, they found that between 2016 and 2020, the global 3D printing materials market is expected to grow at an impressive annual pace.

“3D printing is a technique in which a scanned or digitally designed object is formed into a three-dimensional solid using an additive process. In this process, metal is applied in successive layers with less wastage. 3D printing products can be built from materials in which plastic and metals are the most commonly used materials. A 3D object is designed using computer-aided design (CAD) software or a 3D scanner. The digitalized designed or scanned object is taken by the proprietary software and mathematically sliced into cross sections,” the report explains.

“Technavio’s analysts forecast the global 3D printing materials market to grow at a CAGR of 25.39% during the period 2016-2020.”

The “Global 3D Printing Materials Market 2016-2020” report is divided into three different geographic segments, Americas, APAC (Asia-Pacific), and EMEA (Europe, the Middle East and Africa). The research includes insight from industry experts, and also takes a close look at the leading vendors in the market. There are a number of industrial 3D printing material vendors taken into account for this report, including Arcam, EOS, Hoganas, Solvay, Sandvik, Concept Laser, ExOne, and Renishaw.

In their report, the TechNavio analysts discovered that metal 3D printing is leading the way in industrial applications, while the market has also seen an increase in demand for aircraft engineering from OEMs. As far as challenges go, the market researchers found that one of the biggest hurdles to overcome is the high production costs that come with advanced technological enhancement.
