Increasing product launches is the major factor driving the market growth. The 3D imaging market is experiencing a growing number of fresh advancements across various industrial sectors. These novel developments are poised to encourage the adoption of 3D imaging among end-users, including industries and others, through solutions that incorporate new technologies and features. This surge in new developments also intensifies competition within the market, subsequently fostering innovation and distinctiveness.
For example, in February 2021, GeoCue Group Inc. unveiled the True View 515, a new addition to its hybrid 3D imaging system (3DIS) series. Tailored for applications involving dense vegetation penetration and laser imaging, detection, and ranging (LiDAR) wire extraction. These advancements are expected to propel the growth of the global 3D imaging market during the forecast period.
An increase in strategic collaborations and M&A is an emerging trend shaping market growth. The global 3D imaging market is witnessing a tendency towards strategic collaborations and mergers and acquisitions. Vendors are progressively partnering with other firms and research institutions to foster the development of novel 3D imaging technologies, enrich their product portfolios, and extend their distribution networks. For instance, in January 2022, Alma Medical Pvt Ltd revealed a collaborative agreement with Contextflow GmbH, headquartered in Vienna, aiming to integrate its innovative algorithm designed for identifying and interpreting lung-specific /image patterns in computed tomography (CT) scans into a novel digital health platform.
Moreover, this initiative will empower hundreds of radiologists to seamlessly incorporate this artificial intelligence tool into their clinical workflow, consequently enhancing their productivity. Such strategic collaborations and alliances are poised to energize the expansion of the 3D imaging market in the anticipated forecast period.
The lack of uniform or formal standards in additive manufacturing is a significant challenge hindering market growth. A formal standard signifies a specification endorsed by standard-setting bodies like the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) International. Initially, additive manufacturing commenced without prescribed rules due to limited industry participants. However, as technology adoption surged, diverse challenges surfaced encompassing copyright concerns, industrial norms, prerequisites, and material utilization. Existing standards applicable to manufacturing, machining, and modelling lack compatibility with additive manufacturing, attributable to various factors.
For instance, a metal component fabricated by selective laser melting (SLM) possesses different properties from a similar component fabricated using electron beam melting (EBM). Thus, the lack of standardization among international organizations has resulted in the slow adoption of additive manufacturing in various industries, which, in turn, will impede the growth of the 3D imaging market during the forecast period, as 3D imaging is widely used in additive manufacturing.
The market share growth of the large enterprise segment will be significant during the forecast period. Large enterprises encompass organizations necessitating substantial resources, workforce, and significant capital infusion. Sectors like automotive manufacturing, iron and steel, and similar domains fall within the purview of large enterprises. In the context of expansive establishments, the utilization of 3D imaging processing proves instrumental in addressing intricate issues across diverse sectors including manufacturing, healthcare, aerospace, and automotive.
