Executive Summary

Additive manufacturing is a highly advanced process used in powder metallurgy. It is capable of producing a complex geometry of parts directly from a CAD design. Additive manufacturing is used in aerospace and the medical and dental industry to fabric parts that can work robustly in extremely harsh environments. Oil & gas and energy & power end-use industries are emerging in additive manufacturing in the powder metallurgy market. Currently, the automotive industry is likely to be less opportunistic for the 3D printing powders covered in this report since the sector is highly cost-sensitive.


Reasons for Doing This Study:

  • The powder metallurgy (P/M) industry has seen steady growth since the 1980s. Much of this growth was derived from metal powder-based parts replacing castings, forgings, and machined parts. Also, the P/M industry has consistently demonstrated that it can meet manufacturer demand at a lower cost relative to technologies such as drilling, milling, finishing, and others.
  • P/M technology is still evolving, and the industry has adopted particulates (i.e., powders, materials not made solely of metals). Additive manufacturing or 3D printing is a revolutionary parts fabrication process that can produce parts for OEMs (original equipment manufacturers) and parts on demand. Furthermore, this process takes much less time for parts fabrication than the other powder metallurgy process, such as metal injection molding.
  • Powders used in additive manufacturing are spherical and provide strength to the particles and enable the production of a part layer-by-layer. Customization is creating enormous opportunities for the additive manufacturing process. Therefore, the publisher's staff decided to analyze the market opportunity for additive manufacturing in the powder metallurgy industry.
