3D metrology involves the use of electronic non-contact and contact measurement devices to capture 3D data from physical objects, including textures, geometries, colors, shapes, and more. This technology plays a crucial role in product quality control, inspection, reverse engineering, and virtual simulation, finding applications across various industries such as aerospace, defense, automotive, architecture, medical, energy, and power.
The primary types of 3D metrology products include coordinate measuring machines (CMM), optical digitizers and scanners (ODS), automated optical inspection, video measuring machines (VMM), and other related tools. Optical scanners and digitizers, in particular, are non-contact metrology equipment that captures an object's image by acquiring numerous coordinate points and reconstructing them using specialized software. These tools are applied in quality control and inspection, reverse engineering, virtual simulation, and other relevant applications. Various end-users benefit from 3D metrology, including the aerospace and defense, automotive, heavy machinery, electronics, architecture and construction, mining, and other industries.

The 3d metrology market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $11.97 billion in 2023 to $13.03 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.9%. The growth observed during the historical period can be attributed to factors such as increased emphasis on quality control and inspection, the rise of the aerospace and automotive industries, a trend towards customization and mass production, growth in semiconductor and electronics manufacturing, and heightened attention to environmental and sustainability considerations.
The 3d metrology market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $18.24 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.8%. The projected growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the influence of Industry 4.0 and smart manufacturing practices, the increasing applications in medical and healthcare sectors, a growing presence in construction and architecture, heightened investments in research and development, and the rising demand for geospatial and mapping applications. Noteworthy trends expected in this forecast period include the adoption of automated 3D metrology systems, the prevalence of portable and handheld devices, the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning, the incorporation of augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) technologies, and the utilization of multi-sensor systems.
The significant uptake of Industry 4.0 principles is a major catalyst behind the growth of the 3D metrology market. This latest industrial revolution, characterized by interconnectivity, machine learning, and real-time data utilization, has prompted global companies and industries to invest in cutting-edge technologies, including advanced 3D metrology systems. These investments serve as a pivotal aspect of the Industry 4.0 transformation, aimed at enhancing manufacturing efficiency and establishing a more connected ecosystem with access to real-time information across the supply chain involving partners, products, individuals, and stakeholders. Notably, a study conducted by the National Association of Software and Services Companies in collaboration with Capgemini in 2022 indicated that Industry 4.0 investments have grown tenfold between 2010 and 2020, with projected expectations to reach $200 billion by 2025, consequently propelling the 3D metrology market's growth.
The projected upsurge in new vehicle sales is anticipated to drive the growth of the 3D metrology market in the coming period. Utilized within vehicles for precise measurement and component inspection, 3D metrology plays a crucial role in ensuring quality and accuracy during assembly. For instance, according to data from MarkLines Co in August 2021, new vehicle sales in the U.S. during July 2021 surged to 1,291,881 units, marking a 4.7% increase compared to July 2020. This substantial rise in new vehicle sales highlights the growing importance of 3D metrology applications within the automotive industry, thus propelling the growth of the 3D metrology market.
Technological advancements remain a prevalent trend shaping the 3D metrology market. Key industry players within this domain are actively engaged in developing innovative technologies designed to offer swifter and more efficient 3D measurement solutions.
