Market Study: In China in 2016 at least 160 000 3D Printers Sold
According to analyst at IDC China, at least 160 000 3D printers can be sold next year in China-which will make China a bigger marker for 3D printing than US.
However, Mo Minyi, an analyst at IDC China noted that we should keep in mind that China is lagging behind with respect to the revenues compared to the United States, despite the large sales volume. While in the US, most companies purchase expensive high-end equipment it is the opposite in China where mainly inexpensive desktop printers are purchased in China.
