AM Research's quarterly 3DP/AM market data product represents the most thorough and accurate data available worldwide, tracking markets by vendor, print technology, geography, and application (industry). Exclusive insight, commentary and data cuts derived from the data can be found in the AM Research report also published today, "3DP/AM Market Insights: Q4 2025". The data shows year over year total market (consisting of Metal, Polymer and Ceramic 3D printers, materials, and services) size of $16.0B, representing growth of 10.2% (versus 8.3% in 2024). Sequential total market size grew from $4.0B in Q3 2025 to $4.26B in Q4 2025. The Metal AM market totaled $1.67B in Q4 2025, and $6.27B for calendar year 2025. The Polymer AM market totaled $2.59B in Q4 2025, and $9.79B for calendar year 2025. The combined AM Services market totaled $2.21B in Q4 2025, and $8.53B for calendar year 2025. AM Research EVP Scott Dunham states, "2025 was a story of two markets, with the first half of the year largely in line with the tougher times of the last two years, but in the second half of 2025 we saw what we believe is the start of a significant turnaround for AM. The industry is still carrying too much weight competitively and a number of companies exited in 2025 – this won't stop in 2026. But it's become clear we're at a point where growth is flowing back into the market."

In particular, data from AM Research's recent reports on applications for AM highlight rocket engines ultimately growing to become the most impactful application for metal AM in terms of manufacturing value created through 2034.
- The AM print services market, which will be responsible for generating tens of billions in revenues as the largest segment of the industry over the coming decade, is undergoing continual evolution. The integrated provider approach is seeing a resurgence with companies such as Fabric8Labs, Seurat, and even Velo3D all capitalizing on an environment that highly values AM but often struggles to leverage it effectively.
