4D Printing Market Highlights

Market Research Future (MRFR) reports that the global 4D printing market is projected to grow at USD 510 Million by 2030.  The market is set to expand at 43.1% CAGR during the forecast period (2022-2030). 4D printing is the process via which a 3D printed object turns itself into another structure due to influence of external energy input such as temperature, light or other environmental stimuli.

Researches constantly trying to update 4D technology helps the market

Researchers have developed an updated technology called 4D printing, which involves state-of-the-art self-assembling materials.  It is predicted that 4D printing could replace 3D printing in coming years as continuous technological developments and innovation are the current norms shaping the positive outlook of the 4d printing market growth.

Diverse range of applications of 4D printing augments its demand

The self-transformation ability of the material aids in seeking a wide range of applications in various industries. Key players in numerous industries are already on the way to develop 4D printing technology to suit their applications. For instance, Airbus SAS (France) is currently developing a technology that can cool its jet engines using smart material that reacts to temperature.

Key Players

Autodesk, Inc. (U.S.), Organovo Holdings, Inc. (U.S.), Materialise NV (Belgium), Stratasys Ltd. (U.S), Hewlett Packard Corp. (U.S.), 3D Systems Corporation (U.S.), ExOne Co. (U.S.), and Dassault Systèmes SA (France), among others are some of the key players contributing to the market growth.
