There’s no denying that being a startup can be tough and often entails a journey marked by ups and downs. For South Korean 3D printer startup Team Owl Works, things began promisingly enough as it successfully raised over $244,000 dollars through a 2016 Kickstarter to bring its Morpheus delta resin 3D printer to life. Since then, however, things seem to have stagnated somewhat with the company which has recently drawn concern from backers of the project.
In an effort to accelerate the adoption and integration of additive manufacturing into supply chains, SAP, APWORKS and Heraeus are partnering to support SAP Distributed Manufacturing, a cloud-based collaborative platform launched last year that connects users with 3D printing services, material suppliers, certification specialists and more.
