Though we hear most often about the major additive manufacturing markets, namely the United States, Europe and China, that does not mean the technologies are not expanding elsewhere in the globe. One that seems primed in particular for expansion is India. This has been shown most recently by the unveiling of the first “made-in-India” SLS 3D printer by STPL3D.
As mentioned, India has been showing signs of increased growth in terms of additive manufacturing in recent years. For example, a number of construction 3D printing projects including a post office as well as homes have been unveiled in recent years. Not to mention the ever-expanding list of 3D printing service providers like Imaginarium, Wirpro 3D, 3Ding and THINK3D, among others.

Indeed, the market has shown significant growth. For example, research company 6W research noted in a recent report that the Indian 3D printer market grew 94.89% in shipments in 2022 in comparison to 2021. In another study from xResearch, it was predicted that India’s 3D printing market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 20.3% between 2022 and 2023, thus increasing in value from $111.0 million in 2022 to $705.1 million by 2030. Now this new SLS 3D printer continues to show India’s progress in this field.
