Summary of the Report

Global 3D printing metal market was worth USD 380.3 million in 2020. It is projected to grow at a compound annual rate (CAGR of 25.7%) between 2021 and 2028. Market growth is expected to be supported by rising investments in 3D printing businesses over the next few years. Mantle Inc., for example, has raised USD 25,000,000 to fund the 2022 installation of 3D printing equipment. Mantle, Inc., a manufacturer of 3D components, has produced more than 1 million parts for various applications, including medical devices, deodorant packaging, as well as dishwasher components. According to the company, TrueShape 3D printing technology has reduced lead times and cost by approximately 65% in production.

Additive Manufacturing (AM), also known as 3D printing, is used to create dental products that are suitable for patients. This includes partial dentures, crowns and bridges. The traditional manufacturing method isn't suitable for low volume manufacturing because the equipment is often different in size. This is where AM technology comes in and is expected to fuel the U.S. market growth.

AM is used by manufacturers to make clamps, forceps and prothetic limbs. Many companies are using AM processes in healthcare applications. 3D Systems Healthcare, for example, is expected to work with the medical industry in order to increase the use of additive manufacturing in the dental and medical industries.

Market players will be able to take advantage of the shift from rapid prototyping and production using 3D printing. According to a recent survey, more than 50% of 3D hubs reported that 3D printing is being used for the production of functional end-use components. In recent years, 3D printing has been used in increasing numbers by industries such as transportation and automotive.

Form Insights

In 2020, the powder form segment was responsible for more than 94% of the global market's total revenue. There are many parameters that impact metal powder particles' ability to be added to the final component. This includes both the chemical and physical properties of the raw material. These must be well known and characterized. In the next few years, this will increase the demand for metal powder. To get fine prints of the final product, the spherical metal particles used in 3D printing must be very small. They should typically range from 15 to 75 microns.

To achieve the best build, the particle distribution must be uniform. Filaments typically consist of a mixture of metal and polymer. The metal is then coated with a layer made of PLA or ABS. Producers are currently working to find cost-effective ways to print with filament, as compared with selective laser melting. This will increase the demand for filaments in the future.

Product Insights

The highest revenue share, at over 41%, was held by the titanium product segment in 2020. It is expected to grow at the fastest rate of CAGR during the forecast period. The segment is expected to grow due to the increasing demand for titanium-based products across various industries. They are non-corrosive, high-resistant to harsh environments and have high durability. Market growth will be driven by the compatibility of traditional 3D printers for printing semi-metal equipment, when used with polymers and in filament form.

It is expected that the aerospace and defense industries will be able to support high initial costs while also adapting to new technologies, which will drive the development of titanium powder for 3D printer applications. The 3D printing industry will be driven by an innovative aerospace approach that takes advantage of the need for complex geometric structures. This is expected to increase the demand for titanium powder.

Due to its low carbon and high content of chromium, stainless steel will see significant demand in the future. Parts made from stainless steel are strong and lightweight. Stainless steel is also ideal for printing large objects with a high quality surface finish.

Regional Insights

Europe will experience the highest CAGR of 27% based on its region. It is expected to grow at a rate of more than 27% between 2021 and 2028. In terms of adoption of 3D printing in end parts, Europe is led by the U.K. and France. This includes the aerospace and healthcare sectors. A number of countries have created a national strategy to support additive manufacturing in their Industry 4.0 or advanced manufacturing strategies.

Attenborough Dental, Renishaw and Bowman International are the major companies using 3D printing in the U.K. for crowns and bridges. Bowman International makes bearing cages. GKN manufactures automotive and aerospace components. The vast majority of U.K. industries have yet to adopt metal additive manufacturing technology. This is a sign of significant market potential.

3D printing is expected to grow the market in Asia Pacific due to increasing adoption by aerospace companies. Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd. (HAL) is the largest Indian aircraft manufacturer. It uses metal AM technology for various components. HAL, for instance, is using Direct Metal Laser Sintering to make components for the Hindustan Turbofan Engine-25 (HTFE-25).

Market Share Insights & Key Companies

Global market is in its growth phase and has huge potential due to its growing penetration and acceptance across various industries. There are also increasing investments by small businesses in the market. The market is expected to see an increase in merger and acquisition activity due to the increasing competition. Aerojet Rocketdyne Holdings, Inc. purchased 3D Materials Technology, Inc. (3DMT) in 2019. This provider of additive manufacturing solutions was acquired by Aerojet Rocketdyne Holdings, Inc. 3DMT's acquisition is expected to help the company expand its product & service offerings in the aerospace and defense industries.
