The global landscape of Additive Manufacturing (AM) is evolving. While early adopters like the United States, Japan, and the United Kingdom continue to increase their number of AM installations, their overall market share has gradually declined. In contrast, countries such as China and South Korea are rapidly expanding their AM capabilities, installing industrial systems at an accelerated rate. Interestingly, mostly smaller nations collectively categorized as 'Others' are also experiencing substantial growth in AM adoption. This trend suggests that AM technology is becoming more accessible and widespread across the globe, no longer limited to traditional manufacturing powerhouses. Context is crucial when trying to understand the global additive manufacturing landscape. This insight comes from Wohlers Report 2024.

Additive manufacturing (AM) adoption varies significantly based on how we interpret the data. Simply counting the number of 3D printers sold in a country May not tell the whole story. The chart below shows country GDP on the x-axis and the number of industrial AM system installations on the y-axis. The installation-to-GDP ratio is represented by color and bubble size. While the U.S. and China lead in the total number of industrial AM system installations, these numbers are largely influenced by the size of their economies. When we adjust for economic output, countries such as South Korea, Italy, Japan, and Germany emerge as leaders with notably higher AM adoption rates.

This significant currency depreciation may offer a unique opportunity to AM investors (with all other factors included).
