Market Trends of Europe 3D 4D Technology Industry
Healthcare is Expected to Hold Significant Share
- In Europe, the market for medical 3D printing is increasing because of an increased number of applications in medicine and pharmacology. Introducing and developing new technologies for the manufacture of 3D printers. 3D printing has enabled the creation of layers of human skin that sustain the lives of people who have suffered critical injuries and are suffering from major injuries. Moreover, increasing demand for customizations in implants for surgical procedures significantly contributes to the market growth.
- Furthermore, in medicine, 3D reconstruction is used to make numerous objects, like prosthetics and implants, using various materials, such as metal and plastic.​
- Printing a model of an organ can be used with 3D printing in medicine. These may be useful in training patients and giving surgeons a head start on surgical planning. Recently, when it comes to helping doctors prepare for fetal surgery, a combination of MRI and ultrasound imaging along with 3D printing technology is being used by scientists.
- From the beginning of CT scanners and mammography machines, medical imaging has advanced a great deal. By using 3D medical imaging, healthcare professionals will be able to view new angles, resolutions, and details that allow an all-round better understanding of a body part in question while at the same time cutting radiation doses for patients.
- Moreover, the 4D technology is driving a major change in health care. It has broader applications in tissue engineering, chemotherapy, and self-assembling human-scale biomaterials.
Germany is Expected to Witness Significant Growth
- One of the significant factors influencing the evolution of 3D and 4D technologies is their increasing popularity within the media & entertainment sector across Germany. Internet advertising, Virtual reality (VR), over-the-top (OTT) video and 3D Printing, 3D Scanning, 3D Visual Effects, and 3D Sound Effects are some of the new applications of 3D technology in the Entertainment industry for the development of Movies. The entertainment industries are among the most significant users of 3D and 4D technologies.
- Moreover, the popularity of 3D gaming technology and video games has grown in recent years, which is expected to increase market penetration in this region. This has caught the attention of all major industries, and efforts are being made to develop solutions based on 3D and 4D technologies following user expectations.
- Opportunities for the market are expected to arise during the forecast period due to an increasing incidence of chronic diseases, e.g., heart and kidney failures, a growing aging population, and a limited number of organ donors. In Germany alone, it is estimated that by 2035, there will be 24 billion people aged 65 years and over, making up 31 % of the total population.
- In addition, demand for 3D and 4D technology devices is expected to be created in Germany by healthy disposable income growth and intensive lifestyle change driven by increased consumption of faster production with the right technologies, further reinforcing this market.
