3D printing technology is the essential bridge between digital and physical disruption. It has the ability to turn digital files into physical objects, which allows people to design, scan, share, and send digital representations of physical objects anywhere to print 3D objects. 3D printing technology operates similarly to that of 2D printing on paper. In 3D printing technology, thousands of layers of material are printed layer upon layer with the help of an extruder to create the objects in 3D. Desktop 3D printers are considered the fastest-growing segment of 3D printing technology because of the lower cost of 3D printers, ease of use, and easy portability. Desktop 3D printing can be done at home, in offices, schools, and universities. The desktop 3D printer market is continuously reaching out to the clients, from small service providers to universities to home.
Global Desktop 3D Printer Market Dynamics
Drivers: Government Initiatives and Rising Investment for R&D
Although many factors play a vital role in making technology mainstream, the government finally takes technology to the next level through supportive policy formulations and by providing good fiscal strength.
Government organizations have started encouraging research and development initiatives foreseeing various advantages in bringing this technology to the masses. Owing to the government support and initiatives with the help of various desktop 3D printer manufacturers, the Chinese government announced a new policy to install a 3D printer in each of its approximately 400,000 elementary schools over the next two years. This campaign and financial investments by the government for the R&D of 3D printing technology largely increase customers’ technological awareness.
Restraints: Quality of Desktop 3D Printers
The quality of 3D printed object plays a pivotal role in deciding the quality of desktop 3D printers. The application of 3D printed parts requires high strength, superior surface finish, and high performance. The production of high performance and superior surface finish 3D printed object require superior quality desktop 3D printers. The printing of superior finish objects from desktop 3D printers requires technical expertise and state-of-the-art technology. Processing 3D printing filaments/liquid material to get fine & superior quality print using desktop 3D printer does not come cheap. FDM is the most preferred 3D printing technology across various consumer sectors because of its ease of use, lower cost, and ability to build tough and durable parts.
Healthcare is one of the most upcoming applications for Desktop 3D printers. A Desktop 3D printer can be used to print limbs, implants, and other body parts. A high-quality SLA desktop 3D printer is largely used for printing implants and prosthetics. The quality of desktop 3D printers changes for different consumer applications such as education & art, toys & consumer devices, fashion & aesthetics, housewares, and healthcare. A low-cost FDM 3D printer is largely used in the education & art sector. In contrast, a high-quality FDM 3D printer is used to print objects in fashion & aesthetics, toys & consumer devices, housewares, and healthcare.
Opportunities: Opportunities in the Enterprise Market
In any manufacturing industry /consumer sector, 3D printing technology means innovation in new technologies and the development of products at a low cost in less duration of time. While the main driver of the sector growth is expected to be the consumer market, there is also little space for innovation in the enterprise market. The manufacturers are focusing on new manufacturing techniques, products, or verticals and the other prospects in the ecosystem, from the recycling of printed plastic products to the sorting of 3D printed products for the consumers. Based on the analysis conducted, it is observed that there is still a gap between what desktop 3D printers can do and what they will end up being used for. Desktop 3D printer manufacturers and technology experts working with this technology continue to stretch the boundaries of applications.
A desktop 3D printer is currently mainly used for consumer sectors due to lower build volume and lower temperature capacity. However, a desktop 3D printer has larger scope in various manufacturing industries such as automotive, aerospace & defense, and heavy industries. Many R&D programs by desktop 3D printer manufacturers are going on to develop larger build volume sizes desktop 3D printers that can be used in various manufacturing industries.
