Material Extrusion Market Overview:

Extrusions are used to create physical entities from fixed section profiles. Material extrusion is very similar to hot glue gun. The filament is heated to a malleable temperature and then pushed (extruded) through a nozzle. CAD models are sliced ​​into multiple layers. The G-code is used to draw one layer at a time with the plastic heated in the nozzle, which can eventually cool and regain its solid shape.

The material extrusion market is closely linked to the 3D printer market because it is a technology widely used in inexpensive hobby or home printers. Metal extrusion can also help increase material strength. The main advantage is that readily available ABS plastics can be used to produce models with structural properties very similar to production models. It is more suitable than injection molding for low volume cases. The material extrusion market primarily serves the food packaging, automotive and construction industries worldwide.

Material Extrusion market size, estimates and forecasts are provided in terms of sales volume (K units) and revenue (million USD), with historical and forecast data for the period 2017 to 2030, with 2022 being considered as the base year. This report segments the global Material Extrusion market in detail. Regional market sizes related to products by type, by application, and by player are also delivered. In estimating the size of the market, we took into account the impact of COVID-19 and the Russian-Ukraine war.

Significant Market Dynamics:

Drivers

One of the major drivers for the material extrusion market is the surge in demand for ready-to-eat packaged foods. People in many fields, such as information technology or investment banking, lead very busy lives and have little or no time to cook. Therefore, they much prefer ready-made pasta, breakfast cereals, snack bars, or other healthy, quick-to-eat foods.

Another factor responsible for the growth of the material extrusion market is the booming automotive industry. Aluminum is a strong yet lightweight material that is gradually replacing steel in cars around the world. Aluminum extrusion is preferred over other metals. This is because aluminum contributes to making cars greener and more fuel efficient, thereby reducing the carbon footprint of the company and its customers.

Aluminum is also easily recyclable and resistant to all forms of corrosion, ensuring your car will be sustainable in the long run. The third driver is the building and construction industry. Rapid urbanization in China and India requires many building materials such as aluminum and steel. China is already the world's largest steel producer and is expected to remain so. All these reasons ensure a steady demand for the material extrusion market.

Restraints

There are several challenges faced by companies operating in the materials extrusion market. The accuracy and speed of materials are much lower compared to other processes. Accuracy is also limited by material nozzle thickness, which can lead to occasional quality inconsistencies.

Global trade policy changes can pose a significant threat when it comes to aluminum extrusion. Especially since China is the world's largest consumer of aluminum and steel, unfavorable government policies could have a huge impact not only in China but also on the global extrusion market.
