In Brazil, several methods of 3D printing are in use, including FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling), which is a popular 3D printing process in Brazil due to its low cost and versatility. This process involves melting a thermoplastic filament and depositing it layer by layer to create a 3D object. Furthermore, stereolithography (SLA) is a 3D printing process that uses a liquid resin and a UV laser to cure the resin layer by layer to create a 3D object. This process is known for its high resolution and accuracy, making it popular in industries such as dentistry and jewelry. Moreover, selective laser sintering (SLS) is a 3D printing process that uses a high-powered laser to sinter a powder material layer by layer to create a 3D object. This process is often used in industries such as aerospace and automotive due to its ability to create strong and durable parts. The supply chain for 3D printing in Brazil consists of several components including the most common raw materials used in 3D printing are thermoplastics, metal powders, and resins. These materials are typically sourced from local or international suppliers. Furthermore, D printers are either imported or locally manufactured. Some popular brands of 3D printers used in Brazil include Stratasys, Ultimaker, and MakerBot. Moreover, 3D modeling software is essential for creating designs that can be 3D printed. Popular software programs used in Brazil include SolidWorks, AutoCAD, and SketchUp. In addition, the distribution and logistics component of the supply chain is responsible for transporting 3D-printed objects to their final destination. This may involve shipping via air, sea, or land.

The market is divided into four categories: printers, materials, software, and services. By 2028, the printer segment is expected to have the highest market share. The 3D printer was initially marketed as a novelty item rather than a useful tool. However, as a result of cost reductions and technological advancements, the market for 3D printers has grown significantly. They are used in professional printing, for example, to create lightweight, complex designs for expensive items such as racing vehicles and aircraft. The expansion of the printer segment may be attributed to the shifting perspective of 3D printing and its progress as a developing industrial solution. Materials are expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The demand for 3D printing materials is expected to grow due to the increasing adoption of the technology in various industries such as automotive, aerospace, and healthcare. The development of new and advanced materials, such as composites and metal powders, is also expected to drive growth in the market. Additionally, as 3D printing becomes more widely adopted, the demand for a wider range of materials for different applications will increase. However, 3D printing software is becoming increasingly sophisticated, allowing for more complex designs and more efficient printing processes. The demand for software is expected to grow due to the increasing adoption of 3D printing across a range of industries, as well as the need for more sophisticated software to support more complex printing applications. Additionally, the integration of software with other technologies, such as artificial intelligence and machine learning, is expected to drive growth in the market.

Based on application, the industry has been segmented further into prototyping, tooling, and functional parts. The prototyping segment accounted for the largest share in 2022, owing to the extensive adoption of the prototyping process across several industry verticals. The automotive, aerospace, and defence verticals, in particular, use prototyping to design and develop parts, components, and complex systems precisely. The functional parts segment is expected to expand most from 2023 to 2028, in line with the increasing demand for designing and building functional parts.
