The top-level numbers from each of our independent market reports.
Polymer AM / Ceramic AM / Metal AM
The insights that matter
Each one sets out our market size for the year, the split by segment, and our five-year forecast, then a handful of the findings we think are most worth knowing, every one with the chart that carries it. Behind each sits a report of several hundred pages, sized from the bottom up, company by company, from databases we maintain all year. If you are weighing whether that report is worth your budget, start here.
What’s inside
Four parts in every edition
The market, sized
Our market size for the year, growth by segment, the split by region, and our forecast to 2030.
The findings
The developments that defined the year, each quantified and charted, so every conclusion can be checked against the data.
Last year, checked
Our previous forecast set against what happened, segment by segment, published whether it flatters the model or not.
How it is built
How many companies we tracked and contacted, the data points behind the model, our price bands, and where the numbers come from.
Coverage
How the data is cut
Technologies differ by material, and some markets carry structure of their own, ceramic most of all. The approach holds everywhere: revenue and volume for every dimension that applies to that market, for the year and across the forecast.
Segments
Hardware, materials and services sized separately, then totaled.
Technologies
Every process we can size, each broken down into its sub-technologies.
Material forms
Filament, powder, resin, pellet and paste, plus their ceramic and metal equivalents.
Materials
Named grades within every form, each with revenue and tonnage.
Price segments
Hardware split by system price, from consumer up to high-industrial.
Part types
Service output split across prototypes, tools and jigs, and final parts.
End-use verticals
Named industries, plus the demand that sits outside any one of them.
Regions
APAC, EMEA, North America and LATAM, on the seller side.
The core reports are also available as two-report bundles.
