Fiber Laser Market by Type (Infrared Fiber Laser, Ultraviolet Fiber Laser, Ultrafast Fiber Laser, and Visible Fiber Laser), by Application (High Power, Marking, Fine Processing, and Micro Processing)- Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2021 – 2030

Market Definition:

At an estimated value of USD 2.23 billion in 2020, the global Fiber Laser Market is predicted to thrive at a CAGR of 14.51% to be valued at USD 8.42 billion by 2030.

A fiber laser is an optically pumped device mostly used with laser diodes and in some cases with other fiber lasers. The optical fiber used in the fiber laser is doped with rare earth metals such as ytterbium, erbium, neodymium and others that amplify the produced light. It has wide application in different industries due to its high efficiency, cost-effectiveness, compact size and low maintenance cost.

Market Dynamics and Trends

Increasing demand for high-power pulsed lasers is one of the key factors driving the global fiber laser market. These types of lasers are prominently used for non-destructive testing of materials. Also, fiber lasers are increasingly being adopted in number of industrial manufacturing processes including marking, metal cutting and welding of automotive and aircraft components.

Additionally, increasing use of fiber lasers in optical pumping, 3D micro milling, micro-cutting, surface treatment, blind hole machining, microscopy, military and mobile electronics applications is likely to propel the fiber laser market growth.

Moreover, there has been a rise in investment for the development of fiber laser manufacturing plants due to the growing demand for fiber lasers from various end user industries. Such significant capital infusion is also directed towards expanding the footprint into new markets, strengthening the production capacity, as well as introducing new product lines.

However, reduced cutting speed during the processing of thicker materials using laser technology along with undesired pulse pedestals & non-linear optical effects are expected to hamper the growth of fiber laser market. On the other hand, increasing research and development activities coupled with innovation pertaining to green manufacturing are expected to create ample opportunities in the fiber laser market over the forecast period.
