1.1.2 Postulations
This section covers assumptions and postulations or hypotheses considered during the research of
the market. The assumptions considered for estimating the complete forecast of the Global
Healthcare 3D Printers, Products and Services Market have been detailed below:

Market for 3D printers and products includes those approved by regulatory authorities such
as FDA for human use and those currently under research such as organogenesis

The 3D Printing market by application focuses only on the market of products and services.
Since 3D printers can create products for multiple application areas, presenting the market
for 3D printing devices by application is not possible. Market estimates for products has
been divided into implants, surgical guides and products within the applications chapter to
provide readers with a highly accurate perspective on breakdown of applications by the
industry segments.

The market for products wherever mentioned includes the total cost of materials and the
processing

Due to a large variation in the understanding of laser sintering and melting

terminologies, SA-BRC reports all systems using lasers under Laser Beam Melting. Technical
differences between sintering and melting have been excluded while estimating the market
for the same.

2.1 Market Inferences

Key Highlights and Insights to the Global Healthcare 3D Printers, Applications, Products & Services
Market:

The global healthcare 3D printers, applications, products, services & ancillary market was
valued at US$ 670.3 million in 2014 and expected to grow to US$ 2,126.2 million by 2019 at
a CAGR of 25.2% from 2015 to 2019.

The healthcare and medical 3D printing market (3D Printers, Applications, Services and
Ancillary Equipment) accounted for xx% of the global 3D printing market. 3D Printing
services for healthcare accounted for the largest portion of the revenue pie with a share of
xx% in 2014 which translated into revenues of US$ xx million.

The dental/orthodontic and orthopedic applications of healthcare 3D printing accounted for

the largest revenue generation in 2014. Dental segment led the way with a share of xx%
followed by orthopedic 3D printed products that accounted for a share of xx%. Growth
between most healthcare applications is expected to differ only marginally, although
prosthetics and bioprinting (Woundcare & Organogenesis) are expected to lead with a CAGR
of xx% and xx% from 2015 to 2019 respectively.

Laser Beam Melting and Stereolithography were the most popular 3D printing technologies
used in healthcare. Laser Beam Melting primarily used for metal sintering and melting and
Photopolymerization technology was used for polymers. In 2014, the market for LBM was
valued at US$ xx million and is expected to reach US$ xx million. Revenue earned from 3D
printers using Photopolymerization techniques such as SLA valued at US$ xx million in 2014
and is forecast to reach US$ xx million. The fastest growing popular technology was
Stereolithography at a CAGR of xx% from 2015 to 2019.

Highly fragmented market in terms of key players for such a nascent technology indicates
that the concept has spread and has been adopted across the world very quickly. Leaders in
the market are EnvisionTEC (xx%), Stratasys Inc (xx%), 3D Systems (xx%), Materialise NV
