Automotive 3D Printing Market -Trends and Forecasts From 2012 To 2019
This market research analyses and estimates the automotive 3D printing market, which enables the production of physical items while eliminating the traditional manufacturing channel. A part of Additive Manufacturing (AM), this technology has evolved from prototyping in various applications to development of actual usable parts and products. This process involves building products through layering, without the intervention of cutting, drilling, etc. As a result, tweaking the underlying software helps in creation of different items. However, this technology differs from mass production, which results in a large volume of identical parts at low cost. While the majority of the items produced using this process have been mock-ups and prototypes, producers are migrating towards manufacturing low-volume products to be used across various industries. The foremost advantage of this technology is the production of spare parts which cannot be easily obtained otherwise.
3D printing helps in the production of reliable products and lowers the need for iterative product development, thus decreasing the time-to-market of new products. Furthermore, the process alleviates the wastage of raw material as in the case of machining, since only the amount of material necessary for the part under printing is used. Increasing product development and R&D activities are expected to significantly drive the 3D printing market in the coming years. Growth in end-use industries such as healthcare, and increasing demand for cost reduction, increased design freedom, and ease of manufacturing across different application areas is also a key driving force for the 3D printing market. The lack of talent pool to effectively utilize and manage the use of this technology is another barrier to the industry at present. This technology needs to be made more accessible and training needs to be imparted to designated personnel in order to ensure appropriate and efficient usage.
