Eleven 3D Printing Predictions For the Year 2011
This is a guest post by Joris Peels , the Community Manager of i.materialise , a 3D printing service for designers, inventors and consumers.
Hobbyists may have provided the first demand for 3-D printing, but while DIY enthusiasts were creating online communities to make their own action figures and knickknacks out of plastic, industrial manufacturers were discovering how new materials and techniques in 3-D printing could change the way they make commercial products. A 3-D printer deposits a string of hot plastic, lets it cool, and moves on to the next plane to build a three-dimensional object slice by slice. Using the same principles of layering, additive manufacturing can build objects out of metals, plastics, and ceramics in geometric shapes that are impossible to achieve with other manufacturing techniques.

How 3D Printing Will Make U.S. Self-Sufficient
Design And The New Industrial Revolution
It may sound like something from a sci-fi movie—a machine that prints out actual models of designs, rather than two-dimensional renderings on paper—but three-dimensional printing is not only real, it has established a beachhead with businesses of all kinds in recent years. As prices on the machines fall, small business owners, particularly those such as industrial or architectural designers using computer aided design, or CAD, for product development, are accessing the technology.

De tipping point voor 3D printing is daar
Binnenkort wordt 3D printing gemeengoed. Daarmee ontstaat een wereld waarin niet alles meer in massa wordt geproduceerd. Iedereen kan zich ontwerper noemen en eigen producten maken in steen, metaal, plastic of glas; het maakt niet uit.
