Munich, Jan 8, 2025 – In a comprehensive feature published by All3DP Pro, titled Additive Manufacturing 2025: Industry Leaders on What to Expect, thought leaders in the field share their insights on how the AM landscape is evolving. The article suggests that while 2025 will be challenging, it may also be a transformative year for the 3D printing industry, potentially cleaning out the noise, taming the hype, and changing the industry’s trajectory.
1. Industry challenges and outlook: The market downturn 2024 was caused by factors like high interest rates and less access to capital. 2025 will be a challenging year for most of the 3D printing industry. Despite these challenges, there’s still a lot of optimism about the technology’s potential.
2. Key trends: AM companies will be moving from selling technology to providing solutions for manufacturing problems, selling the ability to produce applications rather than just equipment. One of the driving motors will be the defense sector’s adoption of 3D printing, which is expected to be a bright spot in 2025. Also, more alloys and awareness of metal feedstock requirements are anticipated.
3. Optimism despite challenges: Many industry insiders remain optimistic about the long-term potential of 3D printing. Veteran leaders express strong optimism about additive manufacturing’s prospects. Some even view 2024-2025 as a pivotal moment shaping the industry’s future.
„We’re not going to sugarcoat it, 2025 will be all uphill for most of the 3D printing industry. For printer manufacturers, material producers, and software publishers, it’s a roll-up-your-sleeves and deliver moment. Those that don’t won’t weather the year“, writes All3DP Pro’s Editor in Chief Carolyn Schwaar.
