According to a new report published by Grand View Research, The manufacturing sector has increased the adoption of laser technology for processing the material due to many advantages over traditional material processing, which is expected to be one of the major factors driving the market.

Laser Processing Industry Overview

The global laser processing market size was valued at USD 17.48 billion in 2021 and is expected to reach USD 38.22 billion by 2030, exhibiting a CAGR of 9.1% over the forecast period. The market growth is attributed to the increased usage of lasers in medical devices and surgery applications. In addition, the rapid growth of nano-fabrication technology is expected to contribute to the growth of the global market. Furthermore, the manufacturing sector has increased the adoption of laser technology for processing the material due to many advantages over traditional material processing, which is expected to be one of the major factors driving the market.

For example, the traditional manual metal arc welding method is used to cause high potential environmental impacts. This was a hot issue that was solved by adopting laser technology in the car industry. For instance, in July 2021, Furukawa Electric launched an Industrial fiber laser. This machine has a 12kw fiber laser system used to weld the car bodies and their parts, including the aluminum process, battery welding, and motors.
