Global 2017-2027 3D Printing Technologies, Markets, Players Research Report

Dublin, May 05, 2017 -- Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "3D Printing 2017-2027: Technologies, Markets, Players" report to their offering.

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

The aerospace industry, an established end user of 3D printing, has the highest growth rate of any end user industry. The trillion dollar oil and gas industry is an emerging user of 3D printing with the second highest forecast growth. 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.

Over 90 3D printing companies are profiled, and the report is also informed by interviews with companies and institutions throughout the value chain.
