DUBLIN, May 26, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --
Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Additive Manufacturing with Metal Powders 2017: An Opportunity Analysis and Ten-Year Forecast" report to their offering.
This 2017 report on metal powders for additive manufacturing will cover more metals than ever reflecting the growing palette of metal printing. We will also analyze the latest printers and technology developments that have emerges since our 2016 report on this topic. And the author also takes a look at who has been the winners and losers in the past year.
As usual the report includes ten-year forecasts of the additive manufactured metals market with projections by type of machine and software, metal consumed and service revenue bureau. Forecasts are also included by application/end-user industry.
The metal additive manufacturing market remains one of the strongest growth areas of the broader 3D printing industry, and is entering a pivotal year in its evolution in which a number of developments are expected to determine whether or not various metal AM technologies will deliver on expected potential. Incumbent processes and vendors who have enjoyed numerous years of strong growth with little competitive pressure now face a significantly different market structure in 2017, characterized by a drive towards real manufacturing implementation and digital manufacturing business model realization.
Through nearly 200 pages of analysis and market data, the latest ten year forecast outlooks for metal AM are presented, and include key market metrics such as:
- Metal powder shipments by mass across eight leading alloy families, and resulting revenue opportunities
- Hardware unit sales and install base estimates by metal AM technology subgroup (laser powder bed fusion, electron beam powder bed fusion, powder directed energy deposition, metal binder jetting)
- Revenue opportunities for sale of metal powders for additive manufacturing within specific end user markets
Other features of this report include:
- Analysis of individual metal AM technologies and markets, including market share estimates of leading hardware vendors
- Competitive profiling and market share analysis of leading metal powder producers active in the additive manufacturing industry
- Assessments of new developmental metal additive manufacturing processes expected to come to market in 2017 or 2018 and their impact on existing solutions
