About the AMPOWER Report

Why this Report?

Additive Manufacturing is characterized by a high dynamic in technological and market development. This dynamic shows in nearly monthly market entries of new system suppliers in established AM technologies such as Laser Beam Powder Bed Fusion as well as the introduction of unique and proprietary Additive Manufacturing principles. To navigate in this environment, a detailed understanding of the different technologies and their capabilities as well as their impact on the overall market development and revenue share is important.

Within our projects we realized the difficulties our customers have to get independent and trustworthy data on the state of the AM industry for metal applications. This led to AMPOWER´s decision to combine our network and profound experience in the AM industry as well as our technological know-how and create the AMPOWER Metal AM Report. Our goal is to provide the AM experienced user with deep insights into current and expected future market data, but also provide the inexperienced reader with technological background on the different current AM technologies and those of potential future importance.

In order to deliver the most comprehensive and reliable market data, AMPOWER collected the majority of the report´s input in personal interviews. The AMPOWER team personally interviewed over 300 AM industry leaders from machine suppliers, service bureaus and material suppliers to leading users from aviation, medical, energy and others. Combined with secondhand sources the AMPOWER Report provides the most detailed and comprehensive analysis of the state of the metal AM industry and its projected growth which is currently available.
