    Abstract

    At present, China's 3D printing industry has come into the period of "outbreak", where the market growth is accelerated and the relevant technological progress is remarkable. But 3D printing enterprises are difficult to survival and development for completely relying on the market. For an emerging industry, China's government taking what kind of 3D printing policy in different stages is essential for future development of 3D printing. This paper explores the evolution of China's 3D printing policy from the perspective of policy tools, which include the technology supply side, demand-driven side and environment regulation side. The paper finds that China's government attached more and more importance to the 3D printing industry, and the policies continue to be refined and strengthened. On the basis of the aforesaid analysis, the paper puts forward some policy suggestions on how to promote the development environment of China's 3D printing industry.
