A detailed analysis with more than 50 figures and diagrams describe the worldwide metal Additive Manufacturing Market of today and tomorrow. The data is based on primary research results with industry experts and representatives of the supply chain and user market.
Learn about the state of the art and maturity level of all known metal Additive Manufacturing technologies. Make a deep dive into supply chain, materials, design characteristics and cost. Access the supplier and application database.
The authors combine over 30 years of experience in Metal Additive Manufacturing as well as over 150 international customer projects and trained more than 300 engineers worldwide. The report is the first of its kind, that combines direct personal interviews with users and suppliers of the industry. The system suppliers that contributed direct input for the AMPOWER report represent over 90 % of the worldwide installed base of metal Additive Manufacturing machines. The users, who contributed direct input for the report, represent over 13 % of the worldwide installed base.
Additive Manufacturing is experiencing massive growth and is considered to be one of the key technologies on the path of digitalization and industry 4.0. The ability of manufacturing parts directly from a CAD file is creating high expectations in the market. Nevertheless, the metal Additive Manufacturing market size is still a niche compared to other manufacturing technologies.
In 2019, the global metal Additive Manufacturing market size is valued at about EUR 2.02 billion including system, material and service sales. The metal Additive Manufacturers suppliers predict an annual market growth by over 27.9%. Over 50% of the market volume is driven by the revenue of the system suppliers. Buyers, or users, however, are expecting a weaker yearly growth.
The report data is based on personal interviews with system suppliers, material suppliers, service bureaus and users of Additive Manufacturing. For the AMPOWER Report 2020 we talked to over 250 international experts of the industry. This primary research is backed by project experience and several market and technology studies from the past 14 years.
The spectrum of metal Additive Manufacturing has become wide and is continuously increasing. Today, there are 18 different metal AM principles known and each one has a different set of characteristics, advantages and process chain as well cost structure and AM Maturity Index. Just in the year 2019, three new metal AM principles were publicly introduced and will be subsequently be developed and commercialized. To successfully employ metal Additive Manufacturing, the printing process and its properties must be understood. Moreover, the design, process chain and cost structure have to be considered. AMPOWER provides in the technology report section insights into these topics.
