Outlook on the 3D Printing Commercial Space Industry in 2021 - Key Market Drivers and Limiting Factors
DUBLIN, Aug. 17, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- The "3D Printing in Commercial Space: The AM Ecosystem in the Private Space Industry" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
Four years after the analyst released the first-ever additive manufacturing for space industry forecast report, a new market research analysis offers insights into the private space activity where the 3D printing industry is thriving. Focused on today's groundbreaking 3D printed components for satellites and launch vehicles, the study reflects on the many additively manufactured parts that have already flown in space and where additive manufacturing appears to have a market in the rapidly emerging private segment of the space industry. The analyst believes the private segment of the space industry is big enough and distinct enough to warrant its own report.
As this new environment emerges, the analyst anticipates that 3D printing will build satellites, rockets, and space vehicles in the short term, and space stations, and off-Earth structures in the long run. In addition, the analyst envisions that 3D printing will find roles in creating spares on demand and even as a tool in space medicine thanks to 3D bioprinting initiatives being developed for microgravity by private companies. The advantages of AM over traditional manufacturing methods make the technology an ideal choice for space startups and corporations that want design flexibility, shorter lead times, weight and part count reduction, and sustainability.
