Market Overview

The 3D printer industry is considered to be one of the most significant industries in the printing sector. It deals with manufacturing a wide variety of printers with rapid advancement according to the rising demand. Three-dimensional printing or 3D printing is the construction of 3D objects from a CAD model or a 3D digital model. There are several types of 3D printers, such as Stereolithography (SLA), Electron Beam Melting (EBM), Selective Laser Sintering (SLS), Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS), Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM), PolyJet, Digital Light Process (DLP), Multi Jet Fusion (MJF). The market is highly focused on manufacturing high-speed printers to serve the requirements of various industries such as healthcare sectors and many more.

  • For instance, in May 2024, Formlabs launched a 3D printer named Form 4, which is a fourth-generation desktop resin 3D printer with some advanced features such as an automated post-processing system, an intuitive user face interface, and an expanded materials library.
  • Cost-effectiveness: One of the main reasons the 3D printers market has been trending in recent years is it is becoming cost-effective, which is encouraging people to use it more in comparison to other printers.
  • Healthcare sector implementation: The growth in the market is mainly due to the use of prosthetics, bone transplants, and cartilage, all of which can be produced at a very low cost.
  • Customization facility: The 3D printers market offers a wide range of customization options. These include both types of printers, such as building-from-scratch kits and pre-assembled machines.

Bioprinting and sustainability of 3D printers are driving the growth of the 3D printers market

The adoption of bioprinting of functional and intricate organs in the healthcare sector helps to cope with a huge challenge existing with compatibility and shortage in the transplantation of organs. With the availability of customized solutions for 3D bioprinters, the suggestion of advanced treatment methods to ensure that the treatment is effective for the individual patient requirements is enhanced.

The 3D bioprinters are observed to play a significant role in organ transplantation and helping the healthcare industries to increase the success rate in this sector. With the rising awareness of the usage of environmentally sustainable products, 3D printers are expected to play an important role in embracing environmentally friendly materials. For instance, the research team of Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden found a 3D-printed hydrogel made up of nanocellulose and algae.

Also, in the U.S., at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, a team of scientists developed the first 3D-printed brain tissue in February 2024 that can grow and function like real brain tissue. It is considered to be a sustainable nanocellulose-based material which is used to develop 3D printing. The advanced concept of digital twins for enhanced prototyping includes the creation of a virtual copy of an object.

The defense, automotive, aerospace, and healthcare verticals are predicted to subsidize the development of industrial 3D printer manufacturing suggestively in the prediction period due to the dynamic acceptance of technology in several manufacturing processes related to these sectors. In the medical sector, AM supports the growth of muscles and artificial tissues, which imitate natural human tissues to utilize in replacement surgeries.

3D printers offer several benefits, but aspects such as copyright concerns, post-processing, and build-size restrictions hinder the market's growth. Many designs are copied without consent when using 3D printers, which is a matter of concern and disadvantage. The huge expenses associated with setting up 3D printers also hinder the market's growth.
