Dublin, July 16, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "The Future of Manufacturing: 3D Printing for Medical Devices Training Course" training has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The global market for medical devices and equipment is estimated to have been worth $739.6 billion in 2023. It is a thriving industry which is expected to grow at compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.8% from 2024 through 2029 from $810.4 billion in 2024 to $1.3 trillion.
With the advent of the fourth industrial revolution, Additive manufacturing is now an integral part of medical device development globally for an efficient manufacturing process.
Medical device development is a process that needs understanding of both engineering and manufacturing, along with clinical expertise for taking research to the bedside. It is one of the most expensive, regulated and time-consuming areas, with strict guidelines in terms of quality management systems for quality and safe patient care, which leads to further delays in the commercialisation of a product. Additive manufacturing is one of the key processes in the lifecycle of development of medical devices. It can substantially reduce the completion time and cost along with addition of intricate design parameters to a device development.
This course covers the background of additive manufacturing, its processes and technologies, and its importance in the life cycle of a medical device. This course will also include the additively manufactured devices, and other areas where the innovative application of additive manufacturing will help in quicker and cost-effective development of a device for commercialisation.
