During the forecast period 2022-2031, the functional models/functional prototyping/research models segment is expected to dominate the 3D printing software and services market. This application segment holds the largest share due to the unique capabilities of 3D printing technology in quickly producing prototypes without excessive energy consumption or material wastage. Dahil dito, the adoption of 3D printing for functional prototyping purposes is experiencing significant growth.

In terms of end-use industries, the aerospace segment is projected to be the largest during the forecast period. The aerospace industry has embraced 3D printing for the production of various components, including vehicle bodies, seats, engine parts, and rotor blades. This widespread adoption of 3D printing technologies within the aerospace sector is a key driver for the growth of this particular segment in the 3D printing software and services market.

Among different software segments, the 3D designing software segment is expected to hold the largest market share between 2022 at 2031. These software provide users with the tools to design products in any desired shape and size. They are extensively utilized for tasks such as 3D visualization, modeling, engineering, drawing, interior designing, and other similar design-related activities.

Regarding services, the print-on-demand segment is anticipated to be the largest during the forecast period. Print-on-demand services enable users to outsource their 3D printing requirements without the need to invest in their own 3D printers, thereby eliminating concerns about installation costs.

Geographically, North America emerged as the leading region in the global 3D printing software and services market in 2021.
