Increasing Need for Rapid Prototyping and Vehicle Weight Reduction across the Automotive Industry is Anticipated to Witness a High Growth of 3D Printing in Automotive Market. 

3D printing in automotive is anticipated to experience a huge demand with the rapid increase of the automotive industry.  The automotive industry has always been finding ways for faster prototyping and efficient solutions that can able to reduce automotive part weight coupled with structural strength. 3D printing has gained the huge attention of worldwide customers, automakers, and designers due to its robust functionality and drives lower consumption and wastage. For example; in 2018, leading German automobile manufacturer Audi announced that its pre-series center and 3D Printing Center in Ingolstadt has adopted Stratasys 3D printing methods. According to Audi, by 3D printing, it is possible to achieve prototyping lead time reductions by up to 50 % for certain parts with full-color, multi-material printing capabilities. In addition to this, the technological advancements in 3D printers enable organizations to attempt the best alternative that derives the most ideal and effective design features.

The 3D printing market is set to achieve double size with an annual growth rate between 18.2% and 27.2%. However, in automotive 3D printing, the cost of materials is higher than the raw materials used by the traditional equipment, current speed cannot match the production volume requirements and lack of human capital can turn into major restraining factors of this market. Moreover, the consistent advancements in 3D printing have opened new doors to reproduce aftermarket parts for restoring classic cars.

North America is Expected to Dominate the 3D Printing in Automotive Market.

North America holds the largest share for 3D printing in automotive and is expected to continue the same during the forecast period. North American auto industry increasingly focuses on deriving the new capabilities in advanced technologies coupled with the government support for vehicle weight reduction. This has lifted the growth of entire 3D printing technology in the automotive industry in this region.

European automotive manufacturers reconsider the significance of 3D printing as a key technology to build the manufacturing competitive advantages in the automotive industry. For example; Volkswagen, a German-based leading automotive manufacturer focusing on enhancing operations with 3-D printing for creating tooling, jigs, fixtures, larger machines.
