Posted by Steve Stark on January 27th, 2021

The automated 3D printing market is projected to reach USD 1,793 million by 2023 during the forecast period. The increased focus on efficiency and cost of production, growth in adoption of robotics for industrial automation, and growing need to automate post-processing are the major factors driving the market growth.

Key players in the automated 3D printing market include Stratasys (Israel), ExOne(US), 3D Systems (US), Materialise (Belgium), Universal Robot (Denmark), Formlabs (US), EOS GmbH (Germany), SLM Solutions (Germany), Concept Laser (Germany), Coobx (Liechtenstein), Authentise (US), Renishaw (UK), NVBOTS (US), PostProcess Technologies (US), and DWS System (Italy).

Top 2 players in the automated 3D printing market:

Stratasys is one of the major multidisciplinary 3D technological leadership companies, and it relishes the advantage of its proprietary 3D printing technologies, including FDM and inkjet-based PolyJet printing. The company has a competitive advantage over the other market players as it holds more than 1,200 granted patents or pending patent applications worldwide. Its competitive edge can also be attributed to the extensive efforts invested in R&D; its R&D expense in 2017 was 14.4% of the total revenue generation. In May 2017, the company developed a product “Build 3D Demonstrator”, this signifies the long-term vision of the company to make additive manufacturing a viable solution for high-volume production. The company has also been emphasizing on partnering with end users, e.g., Boeing and Ford, to explore future applications and build systems for large-scale manufacturing.
