Friday 11 March 2016, Amsterdam

The report, now available on ASDReports, "Laser Processing Market by Type (Solid, Liquid, Gas, & Others), Application (Cutting, Welding, Drilling, Marking & Engraving, & Others), Vertical (Machine Tools, Microelectronics, Medical, Automotive, & Others) & Geography - Global Forecasts to 2022", the laser processing market is estimated to reach USD 9.75 Billion by 2022, at a CAGR of 6.13% between 2016 and 2022. The increasing use of solid and gas lasers mainly CO2, fiber, dye, excimer, and YAG in the cutting, drilling and marking & engraving applications, and the growing demand for lasers across diversified verticals are driving the growth of the laser processing market.

Solid lasers expected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period

The laser processing market is segmented on the basis of laser types into solid, liquid, gas, and other lasers. The market for laser processing was led by solid lasers due to the increasing adoption of fiber, semiconductor, and YAG lasers for an extensive range of applications such as cutting, drilling, welding, and marking & engraving among many others. These lasers are also witnessing an increased level of adoption across machine tools, automotive, medical, and microelectronics verticals.

Application in the machine tools vertical expected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period

The application in the machine tools vertical is expected to account for the largest share of the laser processing market during the forecast period due to the rising adoption of lasers in the industrial sector for various material processing applications such as cutting, drilling, welding, and engraving. The laser processing market for the architecture vertical is expected to grow at the highest rate from 2016 to 2022 as lasers allow architects to obtain precisely cut material to determine the exact measurements of a building and other necessary components in a model.

APAC expected to hold the largest share and witness highest growth

APAC is expected to hold the largest share of the global laser processing market during the forecast period. This is because of the increasing adoption of laser systems across multiple application areas in this region. APAC also offers potential growth opportunities for the laser processing market as there is a rise in the adoption of solid, gas, and liquid lasers mainly CO2, excimer, YAG, semiconductor, and dye in machine tools and microelectronics sectors. These sectors deploy laser systems to carry out cutting, drilling, welding, micro processing, and marking & engraving and other similar jobs frequently.
