Medical Device 3D Printing Market– The Biggest Trends to Watch out for 2018-2025

3D printing is a process which makes use of a digital design to create a physical object. The process uses a layer by layer approach wherein each layer is attached to the prior layer until the object is complete. 3D printing technology in the medical device segment helps in creation of limb prosthetics, titanium replacements for hips and jaws and plastic tracheal splints, etc. 3D printing is preferred by many doctors before surgeries of any organ part which reduces error.

Demand Scenario

The global medical device 3D printing market was USD 1.13 billion in 2018 and is estimated to reach USD 3.19 billion by 2025 at a CAGR of 15.89% during the forecast period.

Growth by Region

North America leads the market owing to factors such as increasing demand for organ transplants, highly developed healthcare infrastructure and significant government and private investments for the development of advanced 3D printing technologies and applications.
