The 4th International 3D Printing Innovation Exhibition and Summit Forum 2016 was held in Shanghai today. The theme of this exhibition is 3D printing and medical and education, focusing on high-end scientific and technological achievements in the global 3D printing industry and applications, covering desktop 3D printing equipment and 3D scanning products. In addition, the forum will also conduct research and discussion from the frontier technology and development trend of 3D printing, which will contribute to the development of China's 3D printing industry.
Globally, the global 3D printing market exceeded $5.5 billion last year, and the market potential will continue to exceed expectations in the future. Many institutions expect that the future 3D printing industry will continue to maintain rapid growth. By 2017, the market size is expected to exceed 10 billion US dollars, and the compound annual growth rate will reach 33% in the future.
China's 3D printing is still in the early stages of development. With the continuous improvement of policy support and the acceleration of industrialization, in the next few years, China's 3D printing will gradually enter a stage of rapid development. The agency believes that the average annual compound growth rate of China's 3D printing market will remain at around 40%, and is expected to exceed expectations. Last year, China's 3D printing market reached 7.88 billion yuan. By 2020, the market size is expected to reach 30 billion to 45 billion yuan. Although China's 3D printing started late, but has the world's largest potential market for 3D printing, the future growth rate of China's 3D printing market is expected to be higher than the global level.
At present, 3D printing technology is widely used in the fields of mold manufacturing and industrial design. In recent years, the application of 3D printing technology has gradually evolved from the initial research to industrial, automotive, aerospace and other aspects, especially in the medical and educational fields.
Statistics show that the medical field currently accounts for only 1.6% of the 3D printing industry, and is expected to gradually increase to 20% in the future. It can be seen that 3D printing, as a cutting-edge technology in the world, will be widely used in the medical field. Market research firm MarketsandMarkets predicts that by 2020, 3D printing will generate $2.13 billion in production value in medical care. Currently, the use of 3D printing in the dental field is accelerating. This year, the Dutch dental restoration and implant manufacturer VertexDental (VD) developed the world's first CEClass IIa certified series of materials for long-term dental 3D printing applications. This series of materials has good biocompatibility and can be used in photocuring 3D printers between wavelengths of any source. In addition, the application of 3D printing in the stereoscopic model of the heart is also accelerating. The tutor of Xi'an University of Posts and Telecommunications and the post-doctoral team of Emory University in the United States used the dynamic CT image of the heart as a reference image to develop a 3D printed stereoscopic model of the heart, which made the clinical operation more convenient and faster. From a technical point of view, the technical route adopted by the team is the first in China, breaking the technological monopoly of large foreign companies.
In addition, 3D printing is also a diversified application in the field of education. Almost all schools in the United States offer courses in 3D printing. At the Remuston Career Center in Alabama, USA, local high school students use 3D printers for design and modeling, and students can manipulate and delve into these models while modifying the design. In addition, the STEM Institute has announced a partnership with 3D printing company Stratasys to integrate 3D printers into classes with programming courses.
With the breakthrough in the application of 3D printing technology in medical and education fields, the future 3D printing market is expected to expand further, and upstream materials and downstream service companies are expected to benefit first.
