Market Definition
Additive manufacturing (AM) is different from the subtractive method of production, which envisages grinding out unnecessary material from a block of material. The use of additive manufacturing in industrial applications usually refers to 3D printing. Additive manufacturing involves a layer-by-layer addition of material to form an object while referring to a three-dimensional file with the help of a 3D printer and 3D printer software. A suitable additive manufacturing technology is selected from the available set of technologies depending upon the application.
Asia-Pacific Additive Manufacturing Market Dynamics
This section deals with understanding the market drivers, advantages, opportunities, restraints, and challenges. All of this is discussed in detail below:
Drivers
- Increasing demand for lightweight components from the automotive and aerospace industries
The automotive and aerospace sector requires numerous interacting technical and economic objectives of functional performance, lead time reduction, lightweight, cost management and delivery of safety-critical components. To meet the demand and to compensate for the fuel consumption and cost management to enhance the technical performance and allowable to make a lighter structure which directly related to enhancing economic and technical performance and which will help the airlines industry to carry more payload, which will directly improve their revenue. Additive manufacturing technologies, unlike conventional traditional manufacturing, use layer-by-layer manufacturing based on typical powder or wire and materials like plastic polymer, which is light in weight.
- Advantages offered by additive manufacturing in various end-user industries
Industries like aerospace were some of the industries that used additive manufacturing products for their performance, and aeroplane parts are used by additive manufacturing products that are lightweight and can withstand harsh environmental conditions, due to less material required and by the process of forming materials layers by layers, aerospace industries utilize it as the advantage for weight reduction and waste reduction, which are very important for the manufacturing of aerospace parts for major companies.
In rapidly innovating medical industries, the utilization of additive manufacturing products is of great advantage for doctors, patients and research institutions. Through functional prototype design provided by additive manufacturing technologies, it has been of great advantage to create a flexible design of various design lifesaving tools needed for surgical and study purposes, tools used in the dental procedure, pre-surgery models for CT scans, custom saw and drill guides, enclosure and specialized instrumentation.
- Easy customization and bulk production using additive manufacturing
Additive manufacturing customization, unlike traditional manufacturing, doesn’t add additional cost for customization and doesn’t require any certain mold or tools for the design it just needs a prototype 3D design and can be created by the customer itself because of the easy customization and fast production there is high demand, and we can mass produce any unique design without hampering the cost and time when making use of the 3D printers. Not only does it provide mass customized production, but it also gives the consumer a unique buyer and consumer experience where it gives them the feeling of belongingness and consumer satisfaction compared to the counterpart who doesn’t provide personalized design. It also allows the consumer to buy the design of their choice. For example, NIKE, a shoe manufacturer, sells its shoes on its website with a 3D design where the consumer can add their colour choice on their own without much hesitation. This will add an advantage to market competition since, through this system, it lets the manufacturer know their client.
- Rise in industrialization and advancement in 3D metal printing technology
With the rise in industrialization, there is a huge demand for 3D metal printing products in industries like aerospace, automotive, health care and others industries. With the demand from various fields for parts in aerospace for their jets engine and other structural parts to customize parts in automotive industries to customize the design of shoes and other electronic gadgets, there is a demand for the rigorous development of 3D printing technologies, which will perform more efficiently and can produce the product at a much faster rate with more precision. So the demand for the advancement and convenience of additive manufacturing technologies lead to an increase in the demand for 3D metal printing technologies.
Opportunities
- Advancement in the healthcare sector
In the medical field, every patient is unique, and therefore additive manufacturing has a high potential to be utilized for personalized and customized medical applications. The most common medical clinical used are personalized implants and medical model saws guides. In dental fields, additive manufacturing products are used, splints, orthodontic appliances, dental models and drill guides. However, additive manufacturing products are also used to make artificial tissues and organs, which can be used for study purposes in a research institute or in between doctor and patients consultation. With the development of digitalizing medical imaging, digitalization allows for the reconstruction of 3D models from patients' anatomy. The typical workflow of the personalized medical device starts with imaging or capturing the patient’s geometry of the anatomy using computed 3D scanning methods. Such data can be utilized to print 3D models of a patient’s anatomy or can be used to create personalized devices or implants.
- Increasing government funding to promote additive manufacturing
Additive manufacturing has immense potential to revolutionize the manufacturing and industrial production landscape through digital processes, communication and imaging. Additive manufacturing is a trending business that has high demand from various industries like aerospace, automotive, medical sector, electronics, fashion etc. seeing the potential possibility of this sector's contribution to the nation economy, the government of different countries is coming up with a different strategy to support and promote this industry.
Restraints/Challenges
- High costs of the equipment, machinery and lack of skilled professional
The benefits that additive manufacturing provides have opened wide horizons for creating absolutely any 3D shapes and components. But not every business does not have the capacity to affordably integrate this type of activity into their business processes. Some of the most common causes that hinder the future of additive manufacturing are the high cost of equipment and the lack of professionals in this industry.
The average price for additive manufacturing equipment is between USD 300,000 to USD 1.5 million. The industrial consumables cost varies from USD 100 to USD 150 per piece. Although, the final price depends on the chosen material, such as plastic, which is considered the most budget-friendly option among all other materials available. The time required is also quite high as it takes more than an hour to print a 40 cm object.
- Lack of software efficiency
Additive manufacturing using the laser powder-bed fusion (PBF) process has the ability to build complex and intricate shapes along with organic structures which were previously too expensive or complex to make using traditional manufacturing operations. For example, the design freedoms achieved by laser PBF could be exploited for lightweight components to build the most intricate lattice structures for more efficient material usage. But, laser PBF has its disadvantages. It includes thin-walled/high-aspect-ratio parts that might fail during a build, difficult-to-remove support structures, layering effects on surface roughness and different process parameter settings such as laser settings for up-skin versus down-skin surfaces.
