Hyderabad, Aug. 10, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- According to a new market research report titled “3D Printing in Aerospace and Defense Market Report (2023-2028),” the market is estimated at USD 3.04 billion in 2023. It is expected to register a CAGR of 19.40% during the forecast period.
3D printing/additive manufacturing refers to how the material is deposited, joined, or solidified under computer control to create a 3D solid object from a digital file. Airlines are increasingly opting to accelerate the retirement of older aircraft as a cost-cutting measure and are replacing them with newer generation aircraft that are comparatively lightweight and more fuel-efficient. Numerous aerospace OEMs are investing in large-scale research projects to augment the use of 3D-printed parts and components in newer-generation aircraft. Likewise, the use of 3D-printed parts is increasing in the aftermarket space, as such parts will reduce the pressure on traditional supply chains.
