According to an industry briefing from Wohlers Associates,  the demand for additive-manufacturing (AM) technology continues to grow, though at a slower rate than previous years.

“The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of revenues produced by all products and services over this period is 26.4%,” according to the report. “The CAGR slowed to 3.3% over the past three years, with 2009 being the slowest in many years, by far.”
