"What is 3D printing good for
- Cost effective short runs, one offs, customisations, prototypes
- Highly accurate 3D objects
- 3D models are difficult to create –
- Finishes are not great
- High prices for one off prints
- Low quality plastics on home printers (Moi ici: ainda ontem à noite, por volta das 23h30, no Porto Canal passou um documentário sobre o CeNTI em Vila Nova de Famalicão... fiquei com a ideia de que têm lá hardware e massa cinzenta que podiam trabalhar nesta vertente)
- Prototypes
- Hobbyist
- Jewellery
- Customised objects
- Medical implants
- Replacement parts
- Designers
- Market places
- Enabling software
- Printers – home and bureau
My gut tells me that there is a big market opportunity opening up. 3D printing technologies will make it cost effective to manufacture a whole range of items that weren’t economic under the mass production paradigm.
