In the near future, you can print anything from electronics
to jewellery just sitting at home. Yes, that is what 3d printing does! It has
been in use in the industrial setting for almost 30 years and now it is
advancing towards consumer as well as small scale oriented businesses.
What is 3d Printing?
It is an additive manufacturing process of making three
dimensional solid objects from a digital file. The article is
created by laying down consecutive layers of material until the entire thing is
created. This technique can be of great use to the medical industry. Surgeons
can print mock-up parts of their patient’s body that has to be operated
upon.
Your Television is not functioning and you need to replace a
spare part to make it function. In an
ideal situation like this you would contact your technician, who would get in
touch with his distributor and who in turn will get the component from his
supplier who may export it from China or elsewhere. Moreover, this would take
you at least 10 days to receive the spare part.
However, with 3d printing in future, you simply need to draw
a Computer Assisted Design (CAD) or
download one of the available 3d images online, save it as a STL file and send
it to the 3d printer. Within hours you will receive your spare part. 3d printing
can print using plastic, metal, nylon and a several other materials.
