Automotive 3D Printed Tires Market: Market Development, Overview and Forecast upto 2027

The automotive industry is evolving continuously and various technical, structural, and manufacturing developments are being witnessed globally. Recently, OEMs have begun adopting new technologies to manufacture tires and various other parts of vehicles. This latest technique of manufacturing tires or parts is known as Additive manufacturing (AM) or 3D printing. This process of manufacturing enables the 3D printer to develop the tire designed on a CAD into a fully functional and operational tire. This manufacturing technique enables the manufacturer to construct a diverse and complex-shaped structure with very high precision and high level of strength.
Automotive 3D Printed Tires Market- Competitive Landscape
During the 2019 Movin’On Summit Michelin and General Motors Company unveiled the new generation Uptis tire. Michelin has plans to start production of Uptis Tire in 2024 to supply General Motors for its initiative of “Zero Crash, Zero Congestion”.
MICHELIN
Founded in 1889, Michelin is one of the key players based in Europe operating in global tire industry. Michelin primarily provides passenger vehicle tires and light truck tires and is a strong player in aftermarket segment. The company has global presence in 170 countries with 68 manufacturing facilities.
The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company
Established in 1898, The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company is a leading brand name globally. The company’s major businesses are across North America and Latin America, but it also has a prominent presence in other region. It has 48 manufacturing facilities in around 22 countries. The company manufactures aviation tire, passenger vehicle tire, commercial vehicle, off-the-road tire, racing tires and recreational vehicle tires.
Automotive 3D Printed Tires Market Dynamics
Growing safety demand to drive the 3D printed tire market
The 3D printed tires comprises of the tire and wheel as one structure. The 3D printed tires eliminates the rims and there is no inflation. The 3D printed tires are sturdy and supports the vehicle weight but yet are flexible to absorb the vibrations. Since, the tires are airless they are not susceptible to deflation, blowouts and punctures. Automakers such as General Motors Company and AB Volvo have set goals to design crash free vehicles and are heavily investing in technologies promoting safer vehicles. Rising consumer awareness and demand from automakers to deliver safer vehicles is set to drive the 3D printed tire market.
Rise in demand of organic and emission free tires
The 3D printed tires such as Vision of Michelin is made from organic rubber compounds.The tire is thus biodegradable and easily retreadable. Carbon black & dust emission from tires form a hazardous pollutants. Tires are mandatory labelling covering parameters such as rolling resistance, wet grip and noise have become mandatory in Japan, South Korea, Brazil, China, GCC and European Union.
The 3D printed tire named Oxygene of The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company features an open structure in the tire to allow moss growth. The moss will emit oxygen and further help reduce the emission caused by the vehicles. The electronics in the tire will be powered by the harvested energy from photosynthesis.

Low Power Display Market: Projection of Each Major Segment over the Forecast Period 2017 - 2025

  Low power display technology is treated separately from our modern world. High resolution displays with low power are considered by many consumers to represent the low power display technology. The development in optoelectronics and nanotechnology has changed the low power display market . The low power display market consumes of less power than plasma technologies and cathode ray tube (CRT). Low-power features have become essential for liquid crystal displays (LCDs) due to environmental concerns. The technology that saves energy by decreasing the power consumption of the backlight unit in a display panel is considered in in low power display technology.  A low refresh-rate technology was introduced in order to further minimize power consumption in the display panel. The low refresh-rate was achieved by employing oxide thin-film transistors (Ox-TFTs) with extremely low leakage currents. However, flicker may be visible due to the current leakage through the liquid crystal (LC

Noise Suppression Components Market: Granular View of The Market from Various End-Use Segments

Noise suppression refers to the methods of reducing and eliminating the effects of unwanted and undesirable sound effects and electrical disturbances which occurs when the level of signal carrier is greater than the noise level. Noise causes intrusion in many electrical devices. However, there are rules to suppress noise, because noise which does not affect a particular electrical device may affect some other electrical device. Further, an electronic device is known as ‘emission’ if it is itself the source of unwanted noise and it is referred to as immunity if the concerned electronic device is the victim of unwanted noise. Electromagnetic interference (EMI) and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) has made the issue of noise suppression important. Some of the examples of noise suppression components are electromagnetic interference suppression filter which is an electronic component which provides electromagnetic noise suppression techniques for electronic goods. The function of the e
