Markets for Aluminum Alloys in Additive Manufacturing: 2018 to 2028 - ResearchAndMarkets.com

The "Markets for Aluminum Alloys in Additive Manufacturing: 2018 to 2028" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

This report maps and quantifies the use of aluminum alloys in additive manufacturing. The report differentiates between alloys that were originally developed for die-casting applications (and are now being optimized for AM) and a new family of AM-specific alloys such as the popular new Scalmalloy supplied by APWorks (Airbus) and its global partners.

The report further breaks down its analysis and forecasts to specific alloy aluminum alloy families (Al7xxx, Al6xxx, Al2xxx and even AL1xxx) that leading companies are using or developing for AM applications.

Leveraging its extensive and growing database of AM technologies and AM materials, the report precisely breaks down the Aluminum AM landscape into major applications driving the use of aluminum alloys. SmarTech's analyses focuses on major industrial segments such as Aerospace, Automotive, AM Service Bureaus and Other Industries (Energy/Oil&Gas, Consumer Products, Medical, Jewelry) and the specific applications for which first adopters have demonstrated the cost-effectiveness of the AM process.

By conducting interviews with major stakeholders and adopters in the global markets for AM and aluminum, the specifics of technological and material science evolutions are further analyzed throughout this study and culminate in the most up-to-date market forecast projections specific to aluminum-based additive manufacturing processes. Thus, the researcher is pleased to present the only comprehensive market research guide to one of the most interesting areas of additive manufacturing.
