In the early stages of 3D printing for product development, there was excitement about the technology’s potential to change the world of prototyping. Advanced manufacturing processes like 3D printing empowered designers and engineers with new tools to innovate and create prototypes with astonishing speed and accuracy. Early-stage prototyping and product development was no longer constrained by costly, time-consuming production processes. The use and application of this new technology would prove to be the beginning of a modern manufacturing revolution.
Until recently, integrating 3D printing technologies and approaches with conventional processes remained beyond the reach of most organizations. 3D Systems has been working to increase the accessibility of these manufacturing technologies. With the expansion of 3D Systems On Demand Manufacturing services, designers and engineers can easily upload files, get instant quotes, and choose from dozens of technologies and materials. Because 3D Systems offers on-demand access to parts, organizations can retain digital files instead of filling up warehouses with inventory.
Individuals or organizations can experience the benefits of advanced manufacturing without needing to bring the equipment and resources in-house. 3D Systems offers access to all the tools of modern production, combining integrated technologies to deliver high-quality parts in as little as 24 hours.
