Global 3D Scanning Market Size & Growth Analysis (2023 - 2030)

The Global 3D Scanning market was at US$4,382 million in 2022, and it is foreseen to reach US$10,265 million by 2030 with an expansion rate (CAGR) of 16.5% between 2022 and 2030.

3D (three dimensional) scanning technology is used to capture an actual object in all three dimensions. Technological wise three axis that is X-axis, Y-axis and Z-Axis of object are captured by use of 3D scanning technology. Its predecessor was using 2D technology where only two axes of object was captured that is in X-axis and Y-axis. 3D scanning technology helps to generate more information about object that is scanned. In today’s era of IoT (internet of things) and VR (Virtual reality), which are in more demand by consumers in global market. 3D Scanning market is anticipated to rise more in coming time, as its technology and usage is linked with working of IoT and VR. Gaming industry uses IoT to build games for gamers worldwide as it in more demand. The production of 3D movies is with help of 3D Scanning technology which theater audience usually enjoy more and is preferred. 

3D scanning market is expected to rise further globally in coming time. This is due to factors like short service time of 3D scanning, uncertainty in measurement of materials used in construction sites and inspection work with accurate results can only be achieved by 3D scanning technology.

Market Drivers & Restraints

Drivers

Heritage sites, Monuments and buildings are preserved by the use of 3D scanning technology. Globally, users associate with architectural industry prefer 3D scanning more, as it gives accurate output. World heritage and tourism monuments in Asia-Pacific countries like China and Japan mostly use this technology. The Construction industry uses 3D scanning technology to build up a structure of a building in 3D scanned scaled output. Aerospace and defense industry uses 3D scanning technology in developing and manufacturing components of advance defense and military system, vehicles and weapons. The speed result of building up such items is generally measured by 3D scanning technology.

Countries like U.S.A., Germany, and France uses 3D scanning in its defense sector. Furthermore, in medical industry, use of 3D scan technology is a boon to both doctors and patients. Internal and external body implants are made using 3D scan technology. The best example is making prosthetic items for differently-able patients. Such items for patients with damaged limbs, bone, etc. provide help to tackle day to day activities. Various parts and components are rectified by use of 3D technology in automotive industry. Component made up of essential and costly earthly elements like titanium, silver, carbon-steel, etc. are utilized abundantly while final assembly of vehicles like bikes and cars. Designing of jewelry with market costly items like gold, silver, diamond, etc. is done with help of 3D scanning technology.  Traffic security industry uses 3D technology in cameras attached to see vehicles speed, identification of number plate and other security purposes. Crime scenes are scanned with help of 3D scanning technologies to understand and solve crimes. Many criminologists worldwide prefer this technology as its efficiency is high.

Restraints

The products of 3D scanning are not cheap. The technology used for manufacturing 3D scanning items are costlier when compared to 2D (2 Dimensional) scanning conventional items available in market globally. Consumers behavioral approach towards purchasing 3D scanning products gets sensitive due price difference between 3D scanning and 2D scanning items. Professionals who use such 3D scanning products more qualitatively are less.
