According to the latest publication from Meticulous Research®, the additive manufacturing market is projected to reach $93.36 billion by 2031, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 20.3% from 2024 to 2031. This growth is primarily driven by the increasing demand for producing complex parts, reducing manufacturing costs, minimizing waste, and improving product development and supply chains. The market also benefits from the ability to easily customize products and support large-scale production. However, growth may be restrained by challenges such as limited build sizes and the costs associated with pre-processing and post-processing.

Opportunities for growth in the additive manufacturing market include the growing use of 3D printers for producing functional end-use parts and the rise of composite 3D printing. Nonetheless, concerns about piracy, unauthorized distribution, and a lack of skilled professionals could pose challenges to market expansion.
Key trends in this market include on-demand production of spare parts, increased product customization, and the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into 3D printing processes.
Market Segmentation
The additive manufacturing market is segmented by Offering, Technology, End User, and Geography:
- By Offering: The market is divided into Hardware, Software, Materials (Polymers, Metals, Ceramics, Composites, and Other Materials), and Services. Among these, the Services segment is expected to hold the largest share, above 52.8%, in 2024. This segment includes services such as additive manufacturing services, education, repair and maintenance, consulting, and training associated with hardware and software. The large share is driven by the growing number of service providers, increasing reliance on these providers by end users, and the benefits of outsourcing. Additionally, the rising deployment of 3D printers across industries is expected to increase the demand for support and maintenance services, enabling business process improvements and continual modifications.
- By Technology: The market is segmented into Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM), Selective Laser Sintering (SLS), Stereolithography (SLA), Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS), PolyJet, Multi-Jet Fusion, Digital Light Processing (DLP), Binder Jetting, Electron Beam Melting (EBM), Directed Energy Deposition (DED), Laser Metal Fusion (LMF), Selective Absorption Fusion (SAF), LCD 3D Printing, and other technologies. In 2024, the Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) segment is expected to account for the largest share at 11.5%. This dominance is due to the expanding application areas of FDM technology, such as automotive, aerospace, general manufacturing, healthcare, consumer goods, and jewelry, its cost-effectiveness, and its growing adoption by various manufacturers.
- By End User: The market is segmented into Consumer Products, Healthcare, Automotive, General Manufacturing, Electronics & Semiconductors, Aerospace & Defense, Chemicals & Materials, Energy, Oil & Gas, and Other End Users. The Automotive segment is expected to register the highest CAGR of 22.4% during the forecast period. This growth can be attributed to the use of additive manufacturing in rapid tooling and fixture production, optimizing component performance, and integrating multiple functions into single parts. Automotive manufacturers and aftermarket suppliers utilize additive manufacturing to produce spare parts, replacement components, and obsolete parts on demand, enhancing supply chain resilience and customer satisfaction.
