The global Powder Bed Fusion (PBF) 3D Printers market size is predicted to grow from US$ 2701 million in 2025 to US$ 6859 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 16.8% from 2025 to 2031.
Powder bed fusion (PBF) 3D printers uses 3D printing method that joins powdered material point by point using an energy source, typically a laser beam or an electron beam. It is one of the most common 3D printing techniques used for industrial additive manufacturing.
The industrial printer segment leads the market, accounting for more than 76.0% of the global revenue share in 2022. Based on printer type, the industry is further segmented into industrial printers and desktop 3D printers. The huge share of industrial 3D printers can be attributed to the widespread adoption of industrial printers in heavy industries such as automotive, electronics, aerospace and defense, and healthcare. Prototyping, design and tooling are the most common industrial applications in these verticals. 3D printing benefits manufacturers in terms of prototyping, structural and final product design, modeling and time to market. As a result, production costs are greatly reduced and manufacturers are able to offer better products at reasonable prices. Owing to these advantages, the demand for 3D printers is expected to further increase in the coming years. Widespread adoption of 3D printing in prototyping, design, and mold making is driving growing demand in the industrial sector. Hence, the industrial printer segment is expected to continue to dominate during the forecast period. The adoption of desktop 3D printers was initially limited to hobbyists and small businesses. Today, however, they are increasingly used for home and household purposes. The education sector including schools, educational institutions, and universities are also deploying desktop printers for technical training and research purposes. Small businesses in particular are adopting desktop printers and diversifying their operations to provide 3D printing and other related services. For example, the concept of "fabshops" is gaining popularity in the United States. These fabshops provide on-demand 3D printing of parts based on designs and requirements provided by customers. Hence, the demand for desktop printers is expected to witness substantial growth over the forecast period.
