On June 13, 2017, the HP Commercial 3D Printing Solution Conference was held in Shanghai. Ramon Pastor, vice president and general manager of Hewlett-Packard's MultiJet Fusion 3D printing solutions, brought a keynote address on the topic of "Remodeling Manufacturing," which mentioned that 3D printing will become a major force for future manufacturing. However, from the current status of 3D printing, it is mainly in the manufacturing and modeling section. If we want to quantify the commodities, where will this transformation happen? What are the factors? Let's take a look at how Ramon Pastor thinks.
This transition point should say that there are several factors that will determine its transition. There are currently some restrictions that limit the development of 3D printing, but these restrictions will be overcome in the future.
The first is product performance. This generation of products from Hewlett-Packard can see that its productivity has come a long way, not only in productivity but also in repeatability. That is, we can guarantee the accuracy of each component after it is produced.
The second is the scope of the material. We want to support multiple applications. First, we must have multiple materials to achieve. So we have set up an open material platform and we will have global material suppliers to carry out various innovations on this platform.
The third is the cost of materials. 3D printed materials are very expensive, and now with our efforts, its cost or price will drop dramatically. In this regard, we will be a major driver of the drop in material costs.
Fourth, the awareness of the industry. For the education of the industry, we need engineers to know what are the possible benefits to him and we need to educate them. 3D printing can help them achieve the molding of many complex designs. Because 3D printing does not have any geometric restrictions, all this is impossible for them, and now becomes possible.
The fifth is the standard of supervision. In this regard, we have been continuously improving.
Sixth, it is a complicated business process. We now see this industry chain from a centralized production to discrete manufacturing, which includes many different cost savings, including logistics, procurement, assembly of different materials, and so on.
So overall, such a change will not be realized tomorrow. It needs a long-term process.
3D printing is the current trend in the major technology industries. Can 3D printing be used to operate in the manufacturing industry? What are the prospects for the future industry or manufacturing? Or trend? Ramon Pastor said that there are many global macro trends in this area, but they are all interconnected. Together, they actually paint different perspectives on the future of manufacturing. Such as automation, robotics, 3D printing, cloud technology, and the Internet of Things, together, we are seeing a huge change in the future of manufacturing.
Now we see this kind of manufacturing model where production is concentrated in one place or several places. After production, the product is brought to consumers. The problem here is that the efficiency is not high, there are costs in logistics and warehousing, and it is not known whether all the products can be sold out. Finally, some products may be scrapped. The combination of these technologies, the possibility of the future, is a new mode of discrete manufacturing, in addition to manufacturing sites closer to the demand point, but also in accordance with the needs of manufacturing. This is truly sustainable manufacturing. 3D printing is also one of the driving forces.
The second important point should be said to be more interesting. Ramon Pastor believes that 3D printing will enable IoT's Internet of Things technology to grow even higher. Because our current technology is the only technology that can achieve voxel-level printing. This voxel, which is equivalent to the pixel in 3D, can determine the properties of each 21*21*80 micron cube. In other words, the properties of each small cube can be controlled, and one of them can control the conductivity.
Therefore, in the future, when our components are printed out, we may have implanted various sensors such as pressure sensors and temperature sensors. In other words, we can print out smart items directly. Its smart parts and non-intelligent parts, the incremental cost is very small, basically belongs to a free case. So for us, any item at that time, probably in the IoT, will be greatly improved in terms of the importance of the Internet of Things.
Hewlett-Packard believes that 3D printing is one of the major factors or potential factors for future company growth. Hewlett-Packard hopes to reshape US$12 trillion in manufacturing into digital manufacturing. Obviously, 3D printing will be regarded as a breakthrough into the future smart manufacturing market. HP makes so much investment in this market. From a long-term perspective, 3D printing has great potential, not to mention its current market. scale. The great potential of 3D printing is to reshape such a huge traditional manufacturing industry into an electronic, digital manufacturing industry.
