THE FUTURE IS NEAR

3D PRINTING

HAVE YOU HEARD ABOUT 3D PRINTING, IF NOT THIS REPORT WILL TELL YOU MORE ABOUT

3D PRINTING.

IT WILL TELL YOU WHAT THEY ARE MADE OF, WHAT THEY ARE USED FOR, AND MORE.

!!!IT IS BEING USED FOR EDUCATION!!!

THEY MAKE MODELS TO DEMONSTRATE SOMETHING THAT

HAPPENS IN REAL LIFE.EXAMPLE: WHAT IS GOING ON, ON THE

MOON, LIKE WHAT SPACE STATIONS LOOK LIKE.

‣3D printers can print

in…TITANIUM,CERAMICS,WOOD,G

OLD,SILVER AND MORE!!!

‣ They can print with almost anything today.

3D PRINTERS ARE ALREADY BEING USED FOR MOVIES. PROPS CAN TAKE HOURS OF HARD WORK TO CREATE AND APPLY. WITH 3D PRINTING, MANY OF THOSE PROPS CAN

BE CREATED AND RE-CREATED FASTER, EASIER, AND WITHOUT STARTING FROM

SCRATCH. 3D PRINTING TECHNIQUES HAVE BEEN FEATURED IN MOVIES SUCH AS

IRONMAN, THE HOBBIT, JURASSIC PARK, AVATAR, THE MUPPETS, TERMINATOR

SALVATION, REAL STEEL, THE AVENGERS AND PARANORMAN.”

“Traditional manufacturing models require a lot of upfront costs, storage fees and uncertainty from

investors. Machines have to be set up, space rented, and fingers crossed that the manufactured

product sells. 3D printing takes a more fluid approach: you can print orders on-demand. If you’re a

maker or an entrepreneur trying to get a small business off the ground, this can home in handy.

The additive process wastes very little material, and you can print as the orders come in. This

makes it less financially risky and translates into a low cost of production.”

!!!3D PRINTERS CAN SAVES COMPANIES

MONEY!!!

One thing about the the 3D

printer is that it is very

expensive

7

COMPANIES CAN MAKES MOLDS

EX: LIKE FOR PIPES

▸ It is a cheaper way to make molds

for pipes, metal bars.

3D PRINTING IS USED TO CREATE HUMAN ORGANS

“3D PRINTERS HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO MAKE THE WORLD BETTER OR BITTER, DEPENDING ON HOW WE

USE IT BECAUSE IT CAN BUILD ALMOST ANYTHING WE HAVE IN MIND. 3D PRINTERS HAVE ALREADY

PRODUCED A 3D PRINTED PROSTHETICS INCLUDING A HUMAN EAR AND JAW. SCIENTISTS ARE NOW

WORKING TO 3D PRINT EMBRYONIC STEM CELLS, HEARTS, KIDNEYS, LIVER AND OTHER ORGANS. HOWEVER, 3D BIO-PRINTING RAISES ETHICAL

ISSUES INCLUDING JUSTICE IN ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE, TESTING FOR SAFE AND EFFICIENCY, AND WHETHER PROFESSIONALS HAVE TO ENHANCE

ONE’S CAPACITY BEYOND WHAT IS NORMAL FOR HUMANS.”

3D PRINTING IS NOT AS QUICK AS YOU THINK

“ALTHOUGH 3D PRINTING IS POPULAR FOR CUTTING

COST AND TIME, IT DOESN’T MEAN THAT YOU CAN 3D PRINT ANYTHING

YOU HAVE IN MIND IN SECONDS. THE TIME IN FINISHING A PRODUCT DEPENDS ON SEVERAL

FACTORS.

YOU HAVE TO TAKE NOTE THAT A LARGE 3D MODEL TAKES LONGER TO PRINT

THAN A LIGHTWEIGHT WIRE STRUCTURE.”

Here is a video about 3D

Printing.

CONCLUSION▸I hope you learned more about 3D printing

and how it is changing the world of

manufacturing and creativity.
