Report Highlights
Regional Snapshots
The market size in Asia Pacific is estimated to register a noticeably rapid revenue growth rate within the forecast period pertaining to the growing usage of 4D printing applications in the automotive industry. Growing demand for smart technology vehicles in economically strong nations is driving the market for this technology. The 4D printing market in North America is estimated to account for the biggest revenue share as compared to other regional markets during the forecast period. Increasing emphasis on technological advancements and the rising adoption of additive production is propelling market growth in the U.S.
Market Dynamics
Drivers
4D printing technology is foreseen to be revolutionary as it supplies end-users or customers with better efficiency, quality, and performance through manufacturing procedures. Rising demand from software solution suppliers and hardware manufacturers pertaining to technological advancements is estimated to drive the 4D printing market revenue growth.
For example, doctors use 4D printing, which is applicable to the printing of tissues. Here the mechanical properties vary dynamically. Soldiers might be able to use camouflaged outfits that adapt to numerous environments and metals. This enhances the performance of tanks and trucks in sync with environmental changes.
Restraints
The growth in the insecurity of the policymakers as a result of the advanced technology that is not being commercialized, the increase in the development costs, and issues in relation to the intellectual rights of the property are the major restraints of the 4D printing market development.
However, the rising opportunities for the major key players is estimated to subdue the factors and thus can support the advancing 4D printing market industry growth over the forecast period.
Opportunities
The military is experimenting with 4D printing pertaining to the advantages in producing weaponry, machines, and other associated technologies.
The quality of 4D printed objects to self-transform permits efficient use of limited resources as the printed components react to external stimuli, thus resulting in easier after-use disposal. Growing focus on guaranteeing a sustainable environment is estimated to drive the deployment of more eco-friendly medical options and this is a factor foreseen to support market revenue growth during the timeline period. Industries have started implementing these strategies with a view to develop long-term products.
Researchers are mainly focusing on 4D printing materials, majorly at the microscopic level. Shape memory alloy-based technologies are being introduced, in which an alteration in the temperature makes the shape of an object to alter. Latest technologies also encourage the use of electroactive polymers, smart materials, pressurized fluids, and chemicals for numerous applications.
Challenges
The advanced technology that is used in 4D printing is primarily a structural design that involves software section and hardware section. This can be looked at as the primary challenge in the 4D printing market. In order to formulate a design for the hardware section, there are multiple special measures essential which need to be addressed. These multiple factors prove to be a challenge for the 4D printing market during the forecast period.
Recent Developments
In January 2019, for HP’s 3D printers to present the transformation of digital design into physical units, the design-to-print model for additive supply was designed. GE Additive is another sector with whom the company is working with other than HP. The company is formulating an integrated system for GE 3D printers in the long run.
