No longer does a producer have to make thousands, or hundreds of thousands of items to recover his fixed costs.” This revolution may be a few years away, but the manufacturing of 3D printers is already beginning to take off. According to IBIS, “As the cost of producing these high-tech machines decreases and printer technology is refined, they will be used for an increasing number of applications, such as aerospace-related manufacturing.”
