MarketReportsHub.com offers 3D printing market 2014-2020 as well as 3D & 4D technology market 2013-2020 industry research reports, by MarketsandMarkets, in its online store of syndicated research reports.
Global 3D printing market is growing highly at a CAGR of 14.37% with applications across various sectors such as aerospace, automotive, consumer, government & defense, healthcare, industrial/business machines, and education & research. The overall market for 3D printing is expected to reach $8.43 billion by 2020. 3D printing makes it possible to manufacture a product of virtually any design complexity. Hence, it is very useful for producing highly customized products with high accuracy, for example, a jaw implant for a patient or a critical aircraft component. It also minimizes the overall wastage of materials.
The 3D printing market occupies huge scope in current market scenario. There are major giants present in the market such as 3D Systems, Inc. (U.S.) and Stratasys Ltd. (U.S. and Israel) are creating more opportunity for the market. But on the similar grounds, other major giants such as Canon (Japan), HP (U.S.), and Mitsubishi (Japan) are also entering in the 3D printing zone. Recently in 2014, 3D systems expanded its strategic partnership with Canon Marketing (Japan) to include the complete range of ProJet professional series 3D printers, the CubeX desktop 3D printer, and Geomagic scan-to-CAD software solutions in the market.

3D and 4D technologies have gradually started developing in the market and pose a huge potential in the coming future. 3D and 4D technology markets are mainly driven by the entertainment industry, which provide a new experience of visualization for the same world in three dimensions. Recent development in the 3D content and 3D related equipment and services has further boosted the acceptance of the 3D and 4D technology products among the consumers. The 3D and 4D technology markets include 3D integrated circuit, 3D printers, 3D gaming, 3D cinema, 3D computer aided design (CAD), 3D navigation, 3D animation, 3D imaging, and 3D displays. 3D imaging segment include 3D camera, 3D scanner, and 3D medical imaging technology; whereas the 3D display includes Head Mounted Display (HMD), 3D smart-phone, 3D digital-signage, 3D television, and 3D projectors.
A major breakthrough in terms of developing these technologies and propagating awareness of their potential took place after the 3D and 4D technologies were being widely accepted in the entertainment industry. In the last few years, glassless new 3D TV channels have been introduced with effects achieved via multiple projectors behind the screen, combined with a lens array creating parallax effects from any direction. The FIFA World Cup was the first mass event screened in 3D. The compatibility of 3D and 4D technologies has been gradually incorporated into a variety of consumer products ranging from Blu-ray recorders, gaming consoles, personal computers, and 3D printers. 3D technology has become widespread in homes in the developed countries making way for the 4D technology.
