With the merger and integration of the market, industry giants have entered the layout, 3D printing is ushered in more rational development. Compared with the giants formed by the integration of foreign markets, China's large number of 3D printing companies are generally weak, and the scattered market structure is difficult to form a joint force. Key equipment and core components are heavily dependent on imports and face a severe international market competition environment.
After the over-purchase of capital and the low point of removing bubbles, 3D printing has entered a stage of growth. Data show that in 2017, the global additive manufacturing (ie 3D printing) industry output value of 7.336 billion US dollars, an increase of 21.0%, the growth rate increased by 3.6 percentage points compared with last year.
3D printing has made positive progress in the market applications in aerospace, automotive, medical health and other fields. Some areas have already passed the break-even point of large-scale application, and large-scale industrialization is gaining momentum, if it is realized in several fields. Application breakthroughs will bring explosive growth in the industry. China's large number of 3D printing companies are generally weak, and key equipment and core components are heavily dependent on imports, facing a severe international market competition environment.
In recent years, with the tightening of market supervision, the acceleration of the industry, and the occurrence of a series of risk events, the heating of additive manufacturing has gradually decreased, and the capital market has become more rational for the valuation of additive manufacturing companies.
Li Peixue, founder and chairman of Sandi Time Group, pointed out that with the continuous breakthrough and maturity of key technologies at home and abroad, 3D printing industrialization is entering a wider range of applications, and the world's major industry giants are also entering the 3D printing camp. 3D printing is entering a new era. Zuo Shiquan said that entering a new stage, the development of the additive manufacturing industry is more rational, and long-term investors will prefer high-quality projects with high technical level, good industrialization and broad application prospects.
In the first half of 2018, global additive manufacturing growth rebounded. According to IDC, global additive manufacturing output will reach US$28.9 billion in 2020. McKinsey predicts that the global additive manufacturing industry may generate as much as US$200-500 billion in 2025. Economic benefits.
China has maintained a higher growth rate than the world. According to China's additive manufacturing industry alliance statistics, in the three years from 2015 to 2017, the scale of China's additive manufacturing industry has doubled, with an average annual growth rate of more than 30%. In 2017, there were more than 500 related companies in the field of additive manufacturing in China, and the scale of the industry has reached 10 billion yuan. The growth rate has slowed slightly to around 25%, but it is still higher than the global 4 percentage points. In the first half of this year, China's additive manufacturing industry maintained a growth rate of more than 25%.
At present, there are more than 70 enterprises engaged in R&D, production and service of additive manufacturing technology in Beijing. In 2017, the sales revenue was about 600 million yuan. There are more than 400 enterprises engaged in additive manufacturing business in Guangdong Province, achieving an output value of more than 3 billion yuan. Shaanxi Province is engaged in more than 70 R&D and manufacturing enterprises of additive manufacturing, with an operating income of more than 500 million yuan in 2017.
Despite the large number of Chinese 3D printing companies, the scale is generally small. The largest annual sales revenue of domestic enterprises is less than 400 million yuan, less than 7% of the annual sales of Stratasys in the United States of 4.5 billion yuan.
Zuo Shiquan said that the reason for the fragmentation of China's additive manufacturing market is the difference in the stage of development. At present, China is still in a state of full competition. From the perspective of the development of new technologies, it is a trend to achieve market integration through mergers after a certain period of time.
Insiders pointed out that it is necessary to prevent disorderly competition and waste of resources that may be caused by a large number of enterprises entering. China is still relatively backward in original technology. Although the strength of individual innovation teams is strong, it is difficult to form synergies and bring about problems such as redundant construction. The decentralized market structure also makes China face more severe international competition.
At present, the international industry is accelerating the layout of the complete industrial chain of additive manufacturing. Among them, Stratasys and 3DSystems acquired dozens of companies including specialized material manufacturers, software developers, 3D scanner manufacturers and service providers through global mergers and acquisitions. Large user companies such as GE, BMW, and Boeing are also directly deploying additive manufacturing, moving from users to equipment manufacturers or service providers.
When China revised the "Guidance Catalogue for Foreign Investment Industries", it encouraged foreign investors to invest in the additive manufacturing industry. Foreign mainstream additive manufacturing giants all set up offices or branches in China in order to seize the Chinese market.
China still has a large gap with developed countries in industrial grade additive manufacturing equipment. The problem of critical technology lag, critical equipment and core components rely heavily on imports is still prominent.
Li Fangzheng pointed out that China still relies heavily on imports of key components such as lasers and galvanometers for 3D printing. In addition, there are widespread bottlenecks in the fields of control software, modeling software, reverse design software, and simulation software, which have become shortcomings in industrial development.
In addition, the development of special materials in China lags behind. At present, only dozens of metals such as titanium alloys and high-strength steels have been developed in China, and the properties of material-formed products are generally not high. Industry leaders and materials companies such as BASF have laid out special materials, breaking through a number of new polymer composite materials, high-performance alloy materials, bioactive materials, ceramic materials and other special materials.
Affected by trade protectionism, desktop-grade additive manufacturing equipment may lead to export pressure, special materials and key components, facing embargo pressure. It is expected that in the second half of 2018, the global additive manufacturing giant will expand its domestic market and the domestic market competition will further intensify.
