"In fact, the study can be considered a unique reference book, textbook, and even an encyclopedia of the current state of 3D printing. The customer can be sure that there is nothing similar in terms of coverage of all aspects of the AP neither in the domestic nor in the foreign research space, excluding only some unknown to us, but probably existing developments in the defense industry."
From the review of a professional Expert who participated in the study
The use of information and knowledge from the study conducted by J'son & Partners Consulting gives a complete picture of the possibilities of building your own strategy of participation in the most modern and significant process for the development of almost any production segment – additive manufacturing process.
The key to the design of the 3D printing application strategy are clearly formulated ambitions and ideas about their place in the future economy and production – at the level of the enterprise, industry, or country.
The optimal expertise selection strategy should come from the maximum range of available values. In other words, if it is possible to take the best from the best - it must be done that way. And this study, in this sense, is a direct action guide. At the same time, the "climb" process can be easily linked to the current needs of your own or related production.
1. Prospects of 3D printing applications
The analysis conducted by J'son & Partners Consulting showed that:
The 3D printing market is at the very beginning of its ascent, there are a lot of experiments of 3D printing in different industries, we see various product items, product redesign; 3D printing software is being intensively improved, as well as materials, equipment and processes in this field.
3D printing confidently takes its place in almost all sectors of the real sector of the economy, it is put into commercial operation, the companies continue to expand the range of printed products.
Application of additive technologies in production, marketing, design, visualization for clients and company management is expanding every year.
World’s industrial leaders and experts predict that:
- 2/3 of industrial leaders already use AP in production processes
- by 2030, 2/3 of all manufactured products in the world will be produced with printed components
- between 2030 and 2050 in some manufacturing industries 3D printing will allow to print a fully finished product.
Although prototyping remains a large segment of AP (being historically its first application), the highest rate of AM demand can be seen in other segments, including manufacturing of spare parts.
According to a survey of 1000 global industrial companies conducted by Sculpteo[1], more than 40% of companies are already using 3D printing for manufacturing products in 2018 (compared to 22% in 2017), while the greatest use rate is achieved in the aerospace sector (more than 60% of companies use AP in production).
According to estimates of the world market given by Wohlers, parts manufacturing is already the largest share of AM application (33%), in comparison with other applications.
Pioneers of the market are the US, Japan, Western European countries, including Germany, the UK, France and several other countries. Each of them has its own established leaders – manufacturers of 3D printers. South Korea, Israel and China are showing considerable activity, and their speed of development of new technologies raises concerns about the traditional global leader in high-tech – the United States.
The level of 3D printing penetration varies from industry to industry and depends on the advantages of additive technologies in a particular industry, as well as on the barriers to their use.
More than 50% of the market is taken by: industry, aerospace, car manufacturing, medicine and dentistry, consumer sector.
With time, the share of 3D printing in the finished product will increase. As 3D printing enters new industries, the number of products produced in these industries will grow rapidly.
However, the transition to a higher level of maturity is determined by the technological readiness of the company, industry and country.
Talking about the prospects, it should be noted that long-term drivers of additive production development are the positive effects that these innovative technologies can have on the development of individual companies, industries, and the economy as a whole.

2. Technology and equipment selection strategy for 3D printing
Numerous combinations of initial parameters caused by a wide range of technologies, materials and equipment necessitate careful comparison and reasonable selection of a production set for printing.
The selected 3D printing technology determines the material, support structures, post-processing requirements, printer; plays a significant role in the cost and speed of construction of the part. And ultimately affects the quality and properties of the finished part.
Today there is no uniform approach and rules – how to print this or that part most effectively. There is no printer that could be a leader in all or many key indicators. There is still no standardized equipment, common principles of technology or material selection, there is still no standardized processes.
New printing processes based on innovative physical principles are being constantly invented and patented, and the progress in creating new types of plastic and solid materials that combine the best properties of metal and plastic for 3D printing is still going on.
More than 600 patents have been issued in the field of 3D printing since 1996, more than 50 methods (processes) of printing have been patented by the manufacturers of 3D printers, more than 100 patents for technologies in different industries are issued to different companies every year (industrial leaders patent their own solutions and developments).
Despite the abundance of information, it is still difficult for the end user to understand how to obtain the required part based on the available capabilities and resources.
The choice of 3D printing technology and material is an engineering task. It is a typical task in terms of the lack of a uniquely correct solution.
Each individual print order requires detailed consideration (determination of feasibility, possible characteristics improvement, economic impact).
Therefore, it is possible to identify some selection criteria, but it is difficult to uniquely determine the correct sequence without your own (or partner) system with developed selection algorithms, since each case is unique and requires taking into account the nuances (for example, compliance of the printing parameters with the required properties of the part).
The optimal choice of 3D printing equipment requires understanding of the compromise offered by different processes and parameters.
When analyzing these tradeoffs, the sequence of decisions depends on the key characteristics which are required to be obtained as a result of the printing: strength, printing speed, minimum resolution, cost, etc.
While studying this diversity, it is useful to develop different Classifiers for key indicators that facilitate comparison, knowledge and expertise in three-dimensional printing.
J'son & Partners Consulting recommends the Customer Company to develop its own evaluation system of printing parameters that affect mechanical properties of the part, which allow to make effective decisions on the choice of equipment.
Also, assessing the maturity of technologies and the potential of AM application in their field, J'son & Partners Consulting consultants recommend to regularly analyze successful cases of 3D printing application by global leaders both in their own industry and in other industries, both in Russia and in other countries.
3. The current status of the development of additive technologies in Russia
Russian and foreign experts characterize the current development of the Russian market of additive technologies as a stage of formation in comparison with the world and stress its low maturity in general.
There is a reason to believe that the reality may differ significantly from some traditional quantitative counting systems.
In Russia we can already see manufacturers of materials and expensive industrial 3D-printers which cost more than 5 million rubles each, there is already a critical mass of developments, additive industry is included in the technological agenda of the state. The leading industrial centers of the country and state corporations have begun the transition from prototyping, production of equipment, studying the possibilities given by the technology and R&D, to repair of functional products and selective printing of final working products.
The analysis conducted by J'son & Partners Consulting allows us to conclude that there is no technological lag of the Russian Federation in the AM segment. Some quality indicators of AM achievements in Russia (engines, turbines, buildings, materials...) have already put the country among the world leaders in the development of such technologies.
But due to the implementational, investment and commercial conditions and still weak cooperation, civil industries lag far behind in terms of AP application and development of commercial services (3D printing on demand).
J'son & Partners Consulting concludes that Russia's share in the global 3D printing market of 1.5% is not representative as an indicator of the state of this technology in a single country.
The real indicators of participation in the global competition of development and application of 3D printing in AP are:
- Establishment and operation of AP competence centres
- Formation of national coordination centers and development programs
- Formation of knowledge base of materials, raw materials, technologies, compatibility, compliance, testing methods, national standardization, application and substitution practices, etc.
- Design and production of printers
- Development and hybridization of processes
- Development and hybridization of filaments
- Development and improvement of software for AM processes
- State support for AM implementation.
Using these synthetic quality indicators, it is possible to more accurately define each country’s position in the competitive field, as well as its potential.
Russia, according to expert estimates, according to these indicators can confidently claim a place in top ten, among leaders, with the potential to take first place in the next few years in case of accelerated implementation of the measures outlined in the strategic statements made by the government and country’s flagships of AM (J'son & Partners Consulting).
To date, Russia is actively working on the development of additive technologies: competence centers are being formed and national standards for the segment are being prepared. For companies that want to test the capabilities of 3D printing there have been created several centers of competence for additive technologies and prototyping in the regions of Russia. Such organizations bring their additive equipment into use. The service is suitable for those who need to conduct R&D, produce a unique product, test the capabilities of their technological prototype.
The spread of additive manufacturing should be one of the effects of the traditional industry transformation at the turn of 2025-2035.
4. Ecosystem of the Russian AM market
In Russia there has already appeared a strong ecosystem of players.
Russia has mastered production of equipment and raw materials, Russia has begun to develop specific AP software. A strong and reliable team, able to provide all services on a "turnkey" basis in Russia has already formed. And they are already running a number of AM projects in large industrial sectors.
Among the key players we can identify:
- manufacturers of AM equipment
- material manufacturers providing the above mentioned,
- distributors
- 3D printing service providers (including engineering, design offices, collective access centers)
- scientific, educational and training centers, specialized departments, which are tasked with studying the properties and testing of printing modes with domestic materials, conducting research and R&D
- large state customers engaged in in-house development and implementation of AM for their own needs, with the possibility of subsequent monetization of these technologies in the commercial market
- software developers
- specialized online sources dedicated to 3D printing.
The major players’ profiles are considered separately in the special sections of the Report "The 3D printing market and additive technology application prospects in Russia and in the world".However, there is still too strong dependence on imports and R&D funds for bringing the infrastructure to commercialization at the global level.
5. Volume of the 3D printing market in Russia
The Russian market of 3D printing equipment and services has demonstrated sustainable development over the past 8 years.
In order to assess the 3D printing market in Russia, J'son & Partners Consulting consultants reviewed:
- the volume of imported equipment, components, materials and additional equipment for 3D printing according to customs statistics for the available period from 2011 to 2018,
- sales of Russian printers and materials, according to expert surveys,
- sales to corporate and private customers (B2B/B2C),
- volume of government and commercial tender of different companies (bidding platforms), which includes the cost of government, academic and private companies:
- equipment
- materials
- software
- services (including R&D, technology development and study, analysis of materials)]
- other (incl. expenses for the creation of additive centers, integration and implementation of various equipment and services).
Key indicators of the Russian market (assessment by J'son & Partners Consulting)
- The 3D printing market in Russia is growing steadily: over the past 8 years, in quantitative terms, it has grown 10 times (according to J'son & Partners Consulting).
- In monetary terms, total sales of 3D printing equipment, materials and services (including R&D) rose to 4.5 billion rubles per year ($69 million, estimated in 2018)
- Purchase of 3D equipment, additional equipment and materials accounts for about 80% of the market. While globally, 60% are 3D printing services/engineering. This corresponds to the situation in United States in 2001
- Domestic printers account for about 30% of sales in the Russian market
- A significant role in the structure of demand in the 3D printing market in Russia, as well as the development of research competencies is played by large corporate customers
- In the structure of imports in quantitative terms about 90% are low-budget 3D printers, in value terms the maximum sales (up to 70%) are the most expensive machines
- The Russian market of 3D printing equipment and materials is characterized by a high degree of competition between foreign players.
Manufacturers from Germany and USA are the leaders in the rating of companies that supply equipment and materials for 3D printing. China closes the top three countries, the largest exporters of additive equipment and materials in Russia.
Leading positions on total imports to the Russian market in this period were held by the following companies: 3D SYSTEMS, СONCEPT LASER GMBH, VOXELJET AG, STRATASYS, ENVISIONTEC, MARKFORGET, FORMLABS, PRODWAYS GROUP, ULTIMAKER, HUNAN FARSOON HIGH-TECH CO, MUNDO SL, BEIJING TIER TIME TECHNOLOGY CO.LTD, WANHAO etc.
The Russian AM market has a branch structure that repeats the global one – industry, aerospace and medicine are traditional leaders in 3D printing of functional products.
6. Key conclusions
In general, J'son & Partners Consulting states that currently in Russia we can see conditions for a qualitative leap in the development of the AM technology market.
Significant scientific potential has been preserved, domestic industrial-grade 3D printers have been already developed, metal powder manufacturers have significantly improved the quality, and industrial consumers outside the traditional leaders (aviation and engine manufacturers) are gradually beginning to understand the advantages of 3D printing, moving to the production of final functional products.
Technological and industrial potential of AM implementation in the Russian Federation is still not used to its full. Actualization of this potential, supported by the state, has a chance to put Russia among the leaders in terms of quality indicators of use, implementation, production and export of advanced additive technologies, materials and equipment.
The Russian market of additive technologies has the potential to become one of the world leaders both in terms of volumes and technological development, as the overall reindustrialization and digitalization go, as well as increasing in the share of industry and, first of all, engineering in the economy.
