    Medical 3D Printing Trends for 2020

    The medical field will continue to be an area to watch in the 3D printing space as we move forward, that's a given. A new research report from Virginia-based SmarTech Markets Publishing -- '3D Printing in Medical Markets 2015: An Opportunity Analysis and Ten-Year Forecast' -- has taken a look at specific forecasts for the future of medical-related 3D printing over the next decade with a focus on materials and hardware. Some highlights of the forecasts include that the number of printers shipped annually for medical use will double through 2020, reaching about 2,200 that year; revenues for medical 3D printing materials will nearly septuple to $345 million in 2020; China will gain strength in 3D printing, with the overall Asia Pacific region accounting for about $95 million in revenue in 2020.

    3d printers are especially widening their use in medicine. I think that by 2020, 3d printers will become more sophisticated and more powerful not just for applications in medicine, but for every other industry. If anyone's interested, here's an interesting article that covers 3d printing trends for 2016:https://mylocal3dprinting.com/blog/3...xpect-in-2016/
