Global Factory Additive Manufacturing Opportunities and Markets Report 2021: Supply Chain in Electronic Instruments, Medical Devices, Transportation, Industrial Machinery and Process Equipment

Date:

DUBLIN, April 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — The “Additive Manufacturing in the Factory of the Future: Opportunities and Markets” report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.

“Automation, Additive Manufacturing and the Factory of the Future” provides the necessary raw data and analysis for marketers, product planners, general management, investors and users to take AM to the automated future.

Additive Manufacturing (AM) has been considered an essential part of the factory of the future since the concept first appeared. Until now, no publication has discussed precisely the role that AM will play in the factory of the future.

For now, AM represents about one percent of the overall manufacturing and production landscape. Despite the well-publicized advantages of AM, there remain significant obstacles to AM’s adoption: slow processes involving multiple steps, high costs to scaling, shortage of skilled workforce, difficulty in controlling quality across the supply chain, and the immaturity of standards to facilitate regulatory conformity. All these challenges – and their resolution – are discussed in this new report.

This report also examines the AM supply chain and its digitalization in a number of critical industries including electronic instruments, medical devices, transportation, industrial machinery and process equipment. In addition, the report takes a look at the critical issue of automation both of local AM processes and distributed AM networks.

And while the report acknowledges the problems that arise in the context of bringing AM into the factory of the future, it also shows how AM will lead to lower fixed costs and smaller manufacturing footprints than traditional manufacturing. Two other areas that the report examines are design automation and post processing.
