Transforming the market's eight trends in the development of 3D printing industry in 2016

In 2015, the 3D printing industry has a lot of rhetoric, but for the entire 3D printing, 2016 will still be a remarkable breakthrough year, with 8 development trends.

Although the development prospects of the 3D printing consumer market have been somewhat overstated, for the entire 3D printing, 2016 will still be a significant breakthrough year, showing eight trends:

1. The consumer market collapsed at the CES2016 show, and the 3D printing companies that focus on the consumer market can do their best. The problem is that these cheap and affordable 3D printers are too many and very similar to each other. It is difficult to stand out in the market and gain a place in the market. A good example is Stratasys and 3DSystems, the consumer market of the former was a mess in 2015, and the latter recently announced the discontinuation of consumer-grade desktop 3D printers. It is foreseeable that in 2016, more 3D printing companies will reluctantly abandon the consumer market and switch to the industrial market.

2. Breaking through technical limitations In addition to GM and Ford companies that have exposed the 3D printing technology planning process, many companies have chosen to quietly conduct technology research and development, and have achieved many amazing results. It is understood that there is more than one breakthrough technology for 3D printing without publicity. Some of them involve 3D printing consumables, and some are 3D printing equipment. Once applied in 2016, it will inevitably revolutionize the entire field.

3. Outsourcing 3D printing profit-making year At present, most online 3D printing service providers belong to the "production integration" mode, but there are also many problems. First, there are many problems in the use of 3D printers. Not a professional, it is very troublesome to solve. In addition, once the order volume increases, both production and shipping are not small problems. Other experienced suppliers are clearly more advantageous in all aspects, such as delivery time guarantees and so on. In the future, it will be increasingly common for designers and engineers to outsource their business to suppliers.

4. One of the characteristics that virtual inventory will become a reality printing is low cost. One of the key factors is to “remove unnecessary inventory”. When major manufacturers apply 3D printing technology, they can make items in time as needed, greatly reducing waste.

5. Distributed Manufacturing Over the past 10 years, Amazon has relied on cloud servers to transform the entire computer world, allowing companies to find demand on the web. It can be predicted that the manufacturing industry will also embark on this path, only the length of time. In 2016, there may be manufacturers who announced the construction of such a system, and let us wait and see.

6. Overall Manufacturing For traditional manufacturing, a complete product is produced. Different parts are often from different countries, and they need to be transported to the same place and assembled. 3D printing can be used for one-time molding, and the limitations of the machine for the working environment are being broken step by step. In the future, manufacturers will tend to choose this time-saving and cost-saving technology.

7. The combination of Internet of Things and 3D printing has to say that “Internet of Things” is an important element of modern products. More and more consumer products are installed with sensors or other electronic components, such as 3D printing launched by a Japanese company last time. bicycle. In the future, the use of artificial intelligence to design products will become mainstream, and many of these smart products can only be produced in 3D printing.

8. True Manufacturing Appears Although 3D printing technology and 3D printing service providers have been around for a long time, in the past, most of these services belonged to simple prototyping. In 2016, companies will focus on manufacturing end products and making 3D printed consumer products that can be used in life. Compared to traditional manufacturing processes, the advantages of 3D printing are: consistency of production, safety, material traceability, and so on.

In 2015, the 3D printing industry screamed a lot of remarks. In the new year, I believe that the industry will get rid of this strange circle and launch a truly fascinating practical application.
