According to SmarTech Analysis, the additive manufacturing market grew by 23% in 2022, reaching $13.5 billion in spending.

The metals market grew 25%, while the polymers market grew 20%. Aerospace and dental industries continued to lead the way in 3D printing adoption, but automotive and oil and gas are now catching up. The energy sector is a new player in additive manufacturing, using it to improve the efficiency of systems that rely on fossil fuels. Supply chain issues have driven manufacturers to adopt 3D printing for local, on-demand solutions, and the technology’s value proposition of faster and more cost-effective parts has become even more relevant in the post-pandemic supply chain world.

2) Purchase 3D Printer for In-House

Investing in a 3D printing system can offer significant benefits for companies looking to remain competitive. While it requires a budget, companies that can afford to invest in 3D printers almost always see an increase in business activity. This is because having the ability to use high-temperature systems can unlock the potential to print in more advanced materials that can withstand challenging environments.

One of the key advantages of having 3D printing in-house is the ability to produce custom products for clients efficiently and quickly, all from the company’s own facility. This allows companies to offer exactly what their clients need without wasting time or money on unnecessary steps. With in-house 3D printing, companies can streamline their production process and provide faster turnaround times for their customers, giving them a competitive edge in the market.

In addition to faster production times, investing in 3D printing can also lead to cost savings in the long run. By producing products in-house, companies can reduce transportation costs and eliminate the need to outsource production to third-party suppliers. This can result in significant cost savings and improved profit margins.
