3D printing market to reach US$51bn in 2030

3D printing has the potential to significantly disrupt traditional manufacturing, as it is increasingly being used beyond prototypes, moulds, tools, or other one-off parts. The total 3D printing market will reach US$51 billion in 2030, driven mainly by growth in production parts, according to new data from Lux Research, a provider of tech-enabled research and innovation advisory services.

The value of 3D-printed parts will rise at a 15% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the next decade, from US$12 billion in 2020 to US$51 billion in 2030.
