Global 3D CAD Market 2009-2013 report forecasts the 3D CAD market to grow at a CAGR of nearly 15.3 percent, with the APAC region witnessing highest growth rate.
The major growth drivers include:
-Need to reduce time to market a product, to respond quickly to market opportunities
-Growing importance of collaborating design information among the suppliers, design team, production team, etc.
-Advantages of virtual prototypes that help engineers to try out various 'what-if' analyses without incurring costs associated with physical prototypes
-Requirement of high quality designs, which reduce wastage of time & cost in re-designing a product after reaching manufacturing phase
-Better visualization, which help engineers to model complex and innovative ideas in to solid designs
However, the growth of this market is impacted by the high cost of 3D solutions. Many companies, particularly small and medium businesses, manage designing with 2D CAD solutions that are of low cost.
For the purpose of this report, the 3D CAD market refers to computer-based tools that assist engineers, architects and other design professionals in their 3D design activities. These solutions enable easy 3D modeling, creation, and walk through or viewing design of objects or floor plans on a display device from different angles.
