Dublin, July 21, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "3D Printed Electronics Markets: A 10-Year Forecast of Applications, Processes and Materials" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
This report analyzes how effective 3D printing is in each of these applications and what the challenges are.
Printing processes have been used in electronics since the earliest days of electronics. For the most part however, until relatively recently "printed electronics" mostly referred to printed conductive traces and processes that more resembled coating than printing. There was also an attempt to 2D print polymer electronics for IoT-like networks, but ultimately this has never really taken off.
Meanwhile, in the past decade, 3D printing (additive manufacturing) has taken off using numerous processes and materials and aimed at equally numerous applications.
The report also includes market forecasts for these applications with breakouts by type of 3D printing process, materials, etc.
In addition, the report examines technical, marketing and supply change trends and challenges. Finally, the report contains strategic profiles of the key firms that have made the 3D printed electronics market their own.
