Market Dynamics:

Drivers: 

Rising demand for LED television sets across the globe

The growing demand for LED television sets is observed to act as a major driver for the growth of the 3D printed electronics market. LED TVs often require unique designs and configurations to meet specific consumer preferences. 3D printing allows for highly customizable manufacturing, enabling the production of intricate and complex electronic components. This customization capability can be leveraged in the production of LED TVs, as 3D printing enables the creation of tailored designs, shapes, and sizes for electronic components.

LED TVs are becoming slimmer and more compact, requiring miniaturized electronic components. 3D printing allows for the fabrication of intricate structures with lightweight materials, making it ideal for producing smaller, more efficient electronic components. By utilizing 3D printing technology, LED TV manufacturers can achieve space-saving designs, which align with the current trend of slim and portable television sets.

Restraints: Smaller build chambers restraints the market expansion

The build chambers of 3D printers are typically tiny. Even items of industrial quality suffer from this drawback. The capacity to make objects at a substantial scale is significantly greater with injection mold presses and mills. Based on the fractional sizes that may be produced, the item would need to adhere together if someone wanted to use printing to replicate the technique. The cost and time advantages that may be achieved with smaller prototypes or components are therefore diminished when your manufacturing time increases for the larger goods.

Opportunities:

Rising demand for customized products

The rising demand for customized products in the electronics industry/sector is observed to offer multiple opportunities for the key players involved in the 3D printed electronics market. 3D printing enables the production of highly customized and personalized electronic devices. This technology allows for the creation of complex geometries and integrated circuits, tailored to specific applications or individual needs. From wearable devices to medical implants, customization is a significant advantage of 3D printed electronics.

Challenges:

Challenges to handle the large volume of orders

Multiple industries prefer the production of goods in bulk quantities to boost productivity, reduce the overall cost of the production and to induce the pace of the production. Especially, electronics products that carry a standardized procedure of manufacturing are preferred to be produced at a mass level. However, 3D printing method is not yet accepted widely for producing bulk quantity. The limitations of quantity during production act as a major challenge for the market players which hinders market growth. Such challenges may hamper the market’s growth by limiting the adoption of 3D printing technology, especially for electronics. However, the technological advancements in the 3d printing technology will grow the chances for electronics industry to manufacture at a bulk level.

Recent Development:

  • In February 2023, California-based Relativity Space announced the launch of the world’s first 3D printed rocket ‘Terran 1’ under its launch mission, GLHF. the launch mission by the company was set at Cape Canaveral LC-16.
