3D Printers and 3D Printing

The additive manufacturing and 3D printing industry is one of the fastest-developing tech industries on the planet. As new technologies emerge and existing ones mature, applications for 3D-printed materials are rapidly expanding in both scale and scope. The industry is set to quadruple in value by 2030.

3D printing trends for 2025 and beyond

• Thanks to maturing industrial printer technologies, serial and batch production is becoming viable in 3D printing.
• New additive materials are expanding use cases, with metal alloys, thermoplastics, composites, and other specialized materials becoming available for industrial applications.
• Hybrid additive manufacturing and print-then-machine workflows enable commercial and cost-efficient production of complex designs.
• Artificial intelligence is set to revolutionize additive manufacturing from optimizing print design and material use to conceptualization and post-processing.
• Decentralized production networks are set to change global supply chains as materials can be increasingly printed in print farms.
