Global 3D Scanning Market 2022-2028
Global 3D scanning market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 10.5% during the forecast period (2022-2028). 3D scanning has emerged as an effective tool for inspection and quality control. Various industries such as healthcare, automotive, energy and power, among other domains are coming across certain challenges, including- schedule and safety issues owing to inadequate modelling and incorrect dimensional control procedure. The 3D scanning overcomes the limitation of conventional scanning technologies. The major factor that is augmenting the growth of the market includes growing demand for 3D data for modelling and analysis. In addition, the rising applications of 3D scanning in healthcare and automotive sector and reduced hardware complexities of 3D scanners are expected to drive the growth of the market. Many beneficial technologies such as structure-light and laser scanning technologies have emerged to aid in processes such as surveying, architectural design, and land or property evaluation.
3D scanning market is segmented on the basis of crucial parameters namely; type, range and application. By type, the laser scanner has the highest market share of 45.0% in 2021. Among 3D scanning technologies, 3D laser scanning technology is used in several ways to assist with design and construction of buildings as well as gain survey details about a site or location. Due to high speed, 3D scanners are used to capture 3D images and data in real-time to provide accurate models of an area prior to or post construction. These factors fuel the growth of the 3D scanning applications in the architecture and engineering industry. The approach is used in a number of industries, including architecture, transportation, logistics, and aviation.
On the basis of geography, the 3D scanning market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and Rest of the World. North America is estimated to be the leading region in the 3D scanning market owing to high adoption of 3D scanning in healthcare and aerospace sectors and increasing R&D spending in the region. North America is dominating the global 3D scanning market and expected to grow at a CAGR 10.7% during the forecast period. Asia-Pacific region is the fastest growing at a CAGR of 11.1% during the forecast period due to increasing demand for technology in the industrial and automotive sectors. China is expected to be the major contributor at the global level and is expected to be the biggest contributor in the region. European region is also growing popularity in the 3D scanning market with large number of 3D scanning manufacturers. In 2021, German BMW Group stated that 3D scanning and 3D printing technologies were used to support Paralympics Games, by employing 3D technology for designing aerodynamic and lightweight carbon fibre wheelchairs and custom 3D printed gloves for Team USA.
