China Additive Manufacturing (AM) Market was valued at USD 2.03 billion in 2022, and is predicted to reach USD 1.16 billion by 2030, with a CAGR of 24.4% from 2023 to 2030. Additive manufacturing, often known as 3D printing, is a manufacturing technique that includes layering materials to create items. It is a computer-controlled technology that guides the machinery in shaping the materials using data from CAD software or 3D object scanners. A design is required to begin the additive manufacturing process. CAD software or scanning an existing object can be used to make this design. The design is then converted by the software into a step-by-step blueprint that directs the additive manufacturing machine. The construction of the thing begins after the blueprint is transmitted to the 3D printer. The length of the additive manufacturing process varies with the size of the object being created. The procedure can be simplified for smaller things.
The expanding capabilities of 3D printing technologies are unlocking significant potential and presenting wide-ranging applications for additive manufacturing in China's construction industries. For instance, in November 2021, Advanced Intelligent Construction Technology, also known as AICT, has used its machines to decorate a park using 3D printing for concrete structures and other objects in Shenzhen, China. With a surface area of 5,523 square meters, the park has more than 2,000 3D-printed elements and includes sculptures, benches, flower beds, retaining walls, and curbs that adorn this large green space.
Chinese entrepreneurs have begun to use 3D printing in a variety of industries and are already collaborating with multinational OEMs to produce successful solutions for automobiles, aeroplanes, and factories. For instance, Xi’an Bright Laser Technologies has collaborated with Airbus for years to supply metal 3D-printed aviation parts in Asia and has been even conducting joint R&D together for developing new designs.
The cost of additive manufacturing technologies, including printers, materials, and post-processing equipment is relatively high compared to traditional manufacturing methods. This cost factor may limit the accessibility and adoption of additive manufacturing, particularly for small and medium-sized businesses, which is expected to restrain the growth of the market.
Continuous advances in additive manufacturing technology, such as greater printer capabilities, improved materials, and more efficient post-processing procedures, have supported industry expansion. These developments allow for improved quality, faster production, and more application options, driving more sectors to adopt additive manufacturing. As a result, it is expected to create ample opportunities for the future.
The additive manufacturing industry includes several market players such as Stratasys, Markforged Holding Corporation, Desktop Metal Inc., Velo3d, Inc., Formlabs Inc., Protolabs., Xometry Inc., Shapeway Holdings Inc., D Systems, General Electric. These market players are adopting various strategies such as product launches to maintain their dominance in the market of China.
For instance, in August 2021, Forward AM and Xuberance Collaborated and launched an advanced additive manufacturing technical center in Shanghai, China. With this joint initiative, both companies are combining their strengths to offer local customers fully integrated 3D printing solutions with a wide range of high-performance 3D printing materials and deep engineering expertise.
