Metal additive manufacturing offers various advantageous features over the traditional methods of component or object manufacturing. However, metal additive manufacturing does not replace the traditional methods of manufacturing which is highly effective in mass manufacturing. The metal additive manufacturing is highly suitable for manufacturing customized products, products with fine details, complex products, and most importantly, it can manufacture working metal prototypes. In addition, its various advantages, such as less waste generation, fast-paced production, and recreation of legacy parts, are expected to positively influence the metal additive manufacturing market growth.

Various industries that use metal in their processes are witnessing rapid growth all across the globe. This is attributed to rise in population, disposable income of the people, and rise in global trade. After the negative impact of COVID-19, automotive industry is expected to reach pre-COVID-19 levels in the next two years. The automotive industry makes extensive use of metal additive manufacturing for prototyping jobs. It is estimated that the rise in the automotive sector will drive the demand for metal additive manufacturing. Furthermore, globalization is playing a major role in the growth of air travel across the world. This is leading to an increase in demand in aerospace sector, which eventually propels the metal additive manufacturing market. Furthermore, with the rise in population, especially the elderly population, is driving the demand in healthcare sector for surgical and dental implants. Such implants are custom made for individual patients using metal additive manufacturing. This positively influences the growth of the metal additive manufacturing market.

Major players in the industry are focusing on expanding their businesses to sustain harsh competition in the metal additive manufacturing market. For instance, in July 2022, EOS GmbH, a global firm involved in additive manufacturing, introduced four new metal materials for additive manufacturing (AM) on the EOS M 290 metal system, which includes two stainless steels, one tool steel and one nickel alloy.

Metal Additive Manufacturing Market by Type

The novel coronavirus had rapidly spread across various countries and regions, causing an enormous impact on the lives of people and the overall community. It began as a human health condition and later became a significant threat to global trade, economy, and finance. The COVID-19 pandemic halted the production of many components of metal additive manufacturing machines due to lockdown. The economic slowdown initially resulted in reduced spending on metal additive manufacturing by automotive and aerospace industries. However, owing to the introduction of various vaccines, the severity of COVID-19 pandemic has significantly reduced. As of mid-2022 the number of COVID-19 cases has significantly decreased. This has led to the full-fledged reopening of metal additive manufacturing companies at their full-scale capacities. Furthermore, it has been more than two years since the outbreak of this pandemic, and many companies have already shown notable signs of recovery.

Furthermore, metal additive manufacturing is utilized in electronics industry for manufacturing small custom parts as well as specialized circuit boards. Moreover, rise in industrialization and advancements in 3D metal printing technology that have made it more accessible are estimated to provide lucrative growth opportunities for the metal additive manufacturing industry growth during the forecast period.
