According to a new report from Intel Market Research, the global Arc Additive Manufacturing Equipment market was valued at USD 4,132 million in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 19,420 million by 2031, growing at a remarkable CAGR of 25.0% during the forecast period (2024–2031). This exponential growth is driven by surging demand for rapid metal prototyping, advancements in industrial automation, and increasing aerospace sector investments.

What is Arc Additive Manufacturing Equipment?

Arc Additive Manufacturing Equipment represents a revolutionary fusion of traditional welding technologies with modern 3D printing capabilities. These systems utilize electric arcs as their heat source to melt metal wires, depositing material layer-by-layer to create fully dense, high-strength metal components. Unlike powder-based additive methods, arc-based systems offer higher deposition rates and better material efficiency, making them ideal for large-scale industrial applications.
