Materialise Lists Automation, Metal and App Driven Innovation as Top 2018 Trends for AM 3D Printing Processes

Making forecasts about which directions the AM industry will take is a dangerous job (just ask those who forecasted 3D printing stock trends during the 2013 mini-bubble). If you want accurate forecasts there are two ways to go about it, one is to consult with market analysists and another is to ask professionals in the industry. You might not always get the same answers but when you do you are likely to be on the right track. The forecasts from the pros at Materialise – one of the largest AM service bureaus and 3D printing software providers in the world – is very much in line with our own here at 3DPBM: 2018 will see a lot of product driven 3D printing innovation, more automation, and integration of 3D printing into production lines and a lot more metal 3D printing. 3DPBM will cover many of these top 2018 trends and topics in our monthly Industry Focus sections. So stay tuned!

Custom Chair 3D Printed in One Day by Hans Fouche AM Software

However more and more people do so, soon, many will be able to 3D print real size objects on demand. Of course it will still take a good amount of creativity to know what to use it for, for example a custom chair 3D printed in the shape of a Marmite bottle. That what Hans Fouche 3D Printing just did.
