Boston, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/08/2014 -- A 3D printer creates three-dimensional objects of almost any shape without any molding, assembly or use of machines. It helps in making high-end goods at reduced cost. In the Automotive and Aerospace industries, the use of 3D printing enables manufacturers to make complex parts with high efficiency. Fashion designers also use additive manufacturing to produce jewelry and clothing with complex designs by using materials such as nylon. In addition, researchers are seeking ways to use this technology to make prosthetic parts using biological materials such as cartilage, bone, and skin. 3D printing technology is an evolving technology that serves various industries such as Automotive, Healthcare, and Aerospace. It is also expected to find new applications in other industries as well.

TechNavio's analysts forecast the 3D Printer market in Japan will grow at a CAGR of 21 percent over the period 2013-2018.
