Global 3D Printing Medical Devices Market Overview

The growth of the market can be attributed to the increased adoption of 3D printing technologies in fields such as of dental laboratories, and hearing aid manufacturers. Consequently, the market is expected to witness a significant increase in demand for 3D printed medical devices.

The global 3D printing medical devices market growth is driven by continuous ongoing innovations and the increasing interest of key players in investing in this potential opportunity to fill a crucial gap in the market. The 3D printed medical devices market is witnessing substantial competition as most technology companies are interested in expanding their portfolio by stepping into the healthcare industry. This competition is enabling more tech companies to increase interest in adopting this technology from hospitals and surgical centres across the globe. The increased adoption of 3D printing is expected to create several opportunities for investors, looking to capitalize in the healthcare sector. Further, the increasing number of innovative start-ups in the 3D printing ecosystem is collectively contributing to the rising 3D printing medical devices market share.

Strategic Collaborations to Drive the Market Growth

The market growth can be attributed to the increasing collaboration efforts, such as the joint venture between Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology and Pusan National University Yangsan Hospital, showcasing innovation and the development of advanced 3D printing medical device technologies. Such collaboration activities highlight the market's shift towards collaborative research and commercialization, contributing to a conducive environment for transformative medical solutions. Additionally, the market is equally driven by the increasing research initiatives like the Polina project, supported by the European Innovation Council. These research activities showcase the researcher's commitment to making use of bioprinting to create safe, cost-effective medical devices with structures imitating natural tissues. Such innovative research activities may be a major catalyst in further driving the global 3D printing medical devices market growth in the forecast period.

Further, In December 2023, Singapore General Hospital (SGH) is collaborating with Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) to set up a Joint Research & Development Laboratory in additive manufacturing (AM), also known as 3D printing. This collaboration is expected to benefit SGH patients from healthcare innovations, such as customized medical devices and implants that are 3D printed. These innovations are currently under development and are expected to represent a significant leap toward innovative healthcare solutions that could redefine patient treatment. This collaboration will make use of the combined expertise and resources of SGH's 3D Printing Centre and NTU's Singapore Centre for 3D Printing (SC3DP) to further study and develop related technologies for clinical applications in a point-of-care setup.

Increasing Investments to Aid the Market Development

Furthermore, the market growth is also influenced by substantial funding activities such as Zeda's successful series B financing round. Zeda is a California-based nanotech and 3D manufacturing company that has raised a whopping amount of USD 52 million. Such fundraising activities may act as catalysts in the market expansion as with funds now available Zeda can expand across the geographical boundaries, driving the global 3D printing medical devices market demand.

Research and Development to Support the Market Growth

The market is expected to witness advanced research activities targeted toward bringing innovative 3D printed solutions for medical situations such as 3D printed organs mimicking real organs. For instance, according to a post on MIT News in February 2023, MIT engineers are developing customized treatments for patients' specific heart forms and functions, with a custom robotic heart. The team has allegedly developed a procedure to 3D print a soft and flexible replica of a patient's heart. The replica can then be controlled to mimic that patient's blood-pumping ability. The procedure involves first converting medical images of a patient's heart into a three-dimensional computer model, which the researchers can then 3D prints using a polymer-based ink. The result is a soft, flexible shell in the exact shape of the patient's own heart. The team can also use this approach to print a patient's aorta - the major artery that carries blood out of the heart to the rest of the body.
