Market trend: emergence of 3D printing technology

3D printing can develop three-dimensional objects using computer-aided design (CAD) designs by adding material layer by layer. The process permits manufacturers to develop small components with increased accuracy. It also allows designers and engineers to manufacture parts with intricate geometries that can lead to a reduction in component weight when compared with the parts made using traditional methods.

According to Ramyabrata Chakraborty, a lead analyst at Technavio for aerospace components research, “3D printing allows designers and engineers to manufacture parts with intricate geometries that can lead to a reduction in component weight when compared with the parts made using traditional methods. The adoption of 3D printing in aerospace manufacturing is anticipated to reflect long-term sustainability while ensuring enhancement in the overall performance of a commercial aircraft APU.”

Market challenge: effects of carbon neutral target

Aerospace companies and airlines worldwide are aggressively promoting carbon-reducing procedures and energy-saving measures to control and manage greenhouse gas emissions, which have adverse environmental impacts. Increasing challenges arising from climate changes and global warming have compelled many countries to adopt stringent regulations to reduce carbon emissions.
