3D Printing

3D printing has received much attention in the press over recent years. Hyped as the technology to bring about a 3rd industrial revolution, 3D printing technologies were in fact invented in the early 80s. They remained a niche technology until the expiration of a key patent in 2009 allowed many startups to emerge offering cheap consumer-level 3D printers. A media frenzy in 2012 thrust 3D printing into the limelight and major players are reporting dramatic growth in everything from consumer to high-end metal printers.


3D printing encompasses a variety of different printing processes. The processes are all primarily additive in nature, as materials are deposited only where needed, and thus results in significantly less materials wastage than traditional manufacturing techniques. Each of the technologies is suitable for use with a different range of materials, which in turn defines the suitable applications of the printer.

Originally used for the rapid production of prototypes for form and fit testing, applications are transitioning towards also functional testing of prototypes under working conditions, and further, the manufacture of final products.

With 3D printing designs are not constrained by manufacturing limitations and design complexity no longer adds cost. This opens up design avenues and enables the economic production of lighter components, critical to the aerospace and automotive industries. Applications are also emerging in the medical and dental fields, where the opportunity afforded by cheap mass customisation is allowing surgeons to replicate a patient's body based on MRI and CT scans in order to practice difficult invasive procedures, and medical and dental implants which are fully customised to a particular individual can be generated.

This report discusses all of the commercially-significant existing technologies and promising emerging technologies in depth, and analyses both the current and future markets for 3D printing. The market structure is also detailed, and we present profiles of the major players together with insights gained from in-depth interviews with a range of companies involved in 3D printing. We also present detailed forecasts for the future of the 3D printing market.

The following technologies are covered in detail including lists of all major vendors for each technology type and SWOT analyses with quantitative data and references to vendors:

Stereolithography

  • Digital Light Processing
  • Inkjetted photopolymers
  • Thermoplastic extrusion
  • Selective Laser Sintering of plastics
  • Selective Laser Melting of metals
  • Blown metal powder
  • Welding
  • Sand binding
  • Binder jetted into metal powder (by ExOne)
  • Smooth Curvature Printing (by Solidscape)
  • Selective Deposition Lamination (by Mcor Technologies)
  • Hybrid CNC

This report gives forecasts to 2025 in the following forms:

  • Market forecast by industry (bioprinting, automotive, aerospace, consumer products, medical, oil & gas, hobbyist, dental, education and jewelry)
  • Market share by industry
  • Market forecast growth by industry
  • Market forecast by revenue stream (printer, materials, services)
  • Market forecast for printers and materials by price.
  • Market forecast for printers and materials by technology type.
  • Mapping the 3DP landscape by size, precision, speed and price.

Applications are detailed for:

Manufacture of flight-critical production parts in metals

  • Mold making for metal casting
  • Edutainment
  • Art
  • Modelling
  • Rapid prototyping
  • Tooling

The trillion dollar oil & gas industry is an emerging user of 3D printing with the highest forecast growth followed by the more established aerospace industry. When significant penetration has occurred into the above markets, 3D printing in these big industries will lock into the capital expenditure cycles associated with them, and, as is the case for other CNC machines, periodic fluctuations in sales will occur -- growth will not be steady and monotonic.

18 major players and eight end users in 3D printing are profiled, and the report is also informed by interviews with companies and institutions throughout the value chain.

This report concerns a new market for wearable electronics that awaits those prepared to make formulations and intermediate materials for the new 2D and 3D electronic printing, in-mold electronics and other processes. These and similar processes discussed in the report are being adopted over the coming decade because wearable electronics is changing its form radically, the better to comply with physical and economic needs as the report explains.

The change of materials, suppliers and processes is driven by the fact that the new e-skin patches, e-textiles, stretchable, tightly rollable devices and so on cannot be made with the old "components in a box" approach. Electronics must become transparent or disappear into everyday objects such as spectacle frames for example. Suppliers are needed for formulations and intermediate materials at the heart of this new electronics and electrics. Premium pricing awaits.





Benefiting from a surge in mobile phone users and gradual replacement of 2G by 3G and 4G in developing countries, global RF coaxial cable market size has been growing, registering an average annual growth rate of 8.4% during 2007-2013 and coming to USD 4.29 billion in 2013.

Powerfully driven by national policies, new businesses like broadband network, new generation mobile communications, cloud computing, and high-speed information transmission are accelerating the upgrading of China’s communications industry. 2G network has become very popular in China, and RF coaxial cable market in the country was worth RMB 39.63 billion in 2013.
