With the progress of 3D printing technology and going mature,3D printing industry increasingly clear prospects.It is expected that by 2020 the size of the 3D printing market will exceed 21 billion US dollars,the development of a huge space. However, to achieve this goal,the premise is to cross the material before the storm.3D printing material has become the key to 3D printing technology landing,but also the 3D printing industry can rise an important indicator.

Development of Global 3D Print Materials

3D printing material is an important material basis for the development of 3D printing technology.Material technology is the core of 3D printing technology,which directly restricts the development process of 3D printing.At present,3D printing materials mainly include engineering plastics,photosensitive resin,rubber materials,metal materials and ceramic materials.

Today, the global 3D printing materials industry is in the early stages of growth.With the development and promotion of 3D technology in the world,the demand for 3D printing materials industry is increasing,the specificity of 3D printing industry technology is more dependent on the material industry, making the 3D printing materials industry market participants gradually increased,industry profits Has increased,and engaged in 3D printing technology companies and universities related research institutes are actively research and development widely used, forming more simple new materials. The future of 3D printing materials,technical barriers will be further increased,the material market price is expected to decline.

With the advancement of technology and research and development,more than 300 kinds of materials have been used for 3D printing, but since 90% of 3D users at this stage are using desktop products,Consumption accounted for more than 50%,the current polymer material manufacturers are mainly concentrated in the ABS and PLA and nylon materials.

China's market,the development of 3D printing industry chain is not balanced,most of the production capacity and outstanding enterprises are mainly concentrated in the production of 3D printers,and in raw materials,image processing, reverse engineering and subdivision of the downstream market are relatively weak. At present,China's high-end high-end 3D printing raw materials are still dependent on imports,in the image processing,reverse engineering and other fields have not yet appeared in leading enterprises.

According to statistics,China's 3D printing raw materials,only the development of titanium alloy,high temperature alloys,such as more than 30 kinds of metal and non-metallic materials.Specifically,the proportion of 3D printing manufacturing equipment,materials and services were 50.1%,26.9% and 23% respectively,and the material accounted for 0.2 percentage points higher than 2015.

According to this ratio,combined with China's 3D printing industry over the years the scale,we can calculate the scale of China's 3D printing materials industry.In 2016, China's 3D printing materials industry size of about 2.152 billion yuan,an increase of 62.38%.Can be seen,2016,with the rapid development of the 3D printing industry,3D printing materials industry supply more and more.

Global 3D printing materials development prospects

The next three to five years,the 3D printing industry will enter an industrial outbreak period,with the expansion of the field of printing technology applications,powerful companies will soon enter the industry to speed up the 3D printing industry market development,the United States is expected to print The market will grow by 30% in the next five years.And 3D printing materials as the industry's leading and support the hardware,the printing industry market demand driven 3D printing materials market, the explosive growth.

By 2022,although due to the direction of 3D printing technology tools to gradually shift to the final product production applications,other printing supplies will occupy more and more market share,the proportion of metal materials in 2022 will be more than 50%.In addition,the market share of photopolymer will continue to account for the proportion of the material market will increase.The rapid growth of the application of 3D printers directly contributed to the rapid development of the 3D printing materials market. It is expected that the market size of 3D print materials will reach $ 1.6 billion by 2022.North America is the leader in the entire 3D printing market,followed by the European region.Is expected in the 2017-2022 period.the average annual compound growth rate will reach 19.49%.
