COVID-19 impact: Increase in Usage of 3D Printers During Pandemic Increased Market Growth

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the market experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden spike in CAGR is attributable to the market's growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

The outbreak of COVID-19, was the prime reason for the destruction of several markets throughout the world. The spreading coronavirus not only created financial crisis, but it also created a health crisis during the pandemic. As a result of this people had to strictly follow lockdown rules and social distancing.

Numerous constraints on transportation caused problems to all the major sectors. However, only a few industries enjoyed favorable market conditions during the pandemic of COVID-19. 3D printers were extensively used by the medical and healthcare industry during the COVID-19 phase. This encourages the sales of 3D printing softwares even amidst he pandemic.

LATEST TRENDS

"Growing Prevalence of Additive Manufacturing (AM)to Increase Market Growth"

Additive manufacturing has become a very common name in current scenario. Applying 3D printing for industrial uses is called as Additive Manufacturing (AM). AM involves a very complex procedure of preparing a 3D object. Several layers of

Several layers of the same materials are stacked upon one another to create a particular object. This is referred to as a 3-dimensional file. Additive manufacturing can take place only with the assistance of a 3-d printing software and a good 3-D printer. This has been considered as the latest trend in the market.

DRIVING FACTORS

"Usage of 3D Printing Softwares for Designing, and, Prototyping, to Accelerate Market Growth"

3D printers are used for the purpose of tooling, designing, and prototyping. If a 3D printer has to perform all of this it must be supported by a good 3D printing software. The scope of using 3D printing has also increased. A few years ago, it was only limited to hobbyists. But today such printers and their softwares have become a common phenomenon in medical sector, education industry and also household.  This can have a positive impact on the market growth.

With the incorporation of 3D printing softwares, the production costs have significantly dropped as they can speed up the process of preparing a product. This cuts down on the time as well as the money spent upon manufacturing a product. Several technological developments have fueled the 3D printing software market share.

"Convenience of Using 3D Printing Softwares to Propel Market Growth "

3D printing softwares are very convenient to handle. They are characterized by speed, affordable cost, flexibility. And mainly competitive advantage.  The most significant of 3D printing and related softwares is that they have rapid prototyping. Rapid prototyping refers to the capacity of a machine or a software to manufacture, design, and finally test a given product in as less time as possible.

Small businesses can very easily adopt these softwares, as their cost-effective and affordable. Along with speed, the softwares also provide good flexibility. Hey have he ability to create almost anything however, it must fit within the volume. Using these softwares can help in developing a business as they come with several advantages. These factors have driven the market growth.

RESTRAINING FACTOR

"Inaccuracy in Design of a Product Manufactured from 3D Printing Softwares to Decrease Market Growth"

When products are created with the help of these softwares, the design of the end-product may have certain inaccuracies and may not be very similar to the original product. This can potentially hamper the market growth.

Frequent usage of 3D printers and its softwares can led to unemployment issues especially in the manufacturing sector. All the procedures in the production process are automated giving no opportunity for any workers to put in their job. All of these factors can deteriorate the 3D printing software market growth.
