• For Instance, in September 2024, Titomic and Repkon, both manufacturers of metal 3D printers, have begun a partnership by acquiring a TKF 1000 cold spray system for AUD$2.3 million. Situated in Turkey, this plant will combine Titomic's TKF technology with Repkon's flow-forming methods to improve barrel production.

Technology Insights:

• The Thermal Printing Market by technology is segmented into Thermal Transfer (TT) Direct Transfer (DT). Using an electronic printing method called thermal-transfer printing, a substance is attached to paper (or other material) by melting an elastic layer that clings to the area to be printed on. Direct Thermal transfer uses heated ribbons to create strong, long-lasting images on an array of substances, while direct thermal printing utilizes chemically treated media sensitive to heat that blackens as it travels under the heat of the print heads.

Application Insights:

The Thermal Printing Market by application is segmented into Retail, Transportation and Logistics, Healthcare and Hospitality, Government, Manufacturing and Industrial, Others. One of the most essential duties for every retailer is the capacity to rapidly carry out discount price reductions. It is essential to be perceived to be a "good value" seller as pressure from the competition grows.

Regional Insights:

• North America: Due the large number of companies that offer printers and content that are establishing themselves in the US in an attempt to take benefit from savings of scale through serving to a large clientele, the US is thought to be an effective marketplace for thermal printing systems.
• Asia Pacific: The Asia Pacific thermal printing market growing significantly due to reasons like developing producing goods, a rise in the need for packaging and tag solutions, and the development of online shopping.
