3DPrinterOS Powers New Zealand’s First Consumer 3D Printing Farm at 3Design 3D Printing Service Providers
When 3Design first entered the New Zealand 3D printing market, they thought that this innovative technology would spark a surge in a range of consumers from business owners to hobbyists to integrate 3D printing into their lives. The team soon discovered that there was a high demand for 3D printing from businesses, but a lack of demand from the general public. People who wanted to try out 3D printing did not want to have to buy an expensive 3D printer or keep up with its maintenance. The idea of 3D printing seemed intimidating because of the knowledge needed to successfully operate a printer to get the outcome you are looking for.
