What the future of 3D printing can mean and how it can help us
While many know it can do things like print keyrings or little token items, they haven't actually witnessed how it can help our civilization and the way we live going forward. In this article we take a look at some of the main ways it will revolutionize the ways we live our lives, impacting every industry from medicine and construction to manufacturing and home production. Keep on reading to find out more and get inspired.
The Housing Industry – Creating affordable, sustainable housing designed to last
While you might not be aware, 3D printing is already expected to have a big impact on housing and this is only anticipated to grow. One of the main sectors is in hurricane prone areas, where people are looking to build concrete hurricane proof house types with a concrete 3D printer. This is cheaper than other methods, more efficient and can also help save not only the buildings, but lives too. 3D printed houses can be created much faster than conventional methods and are especially beneficial for those with low-income or who live in a disaster-affected area where rapid housing deployment is vital.
Medical Advancements – Creating Customized healthcare
The medical industry is another of the industries really reaping the benefits of 3D printing. It has many capabilities here, including creating custom prosthetics, implants and even organ tissues. Doctors use the patient's own data to create personalized devices or implants specifically tailored for the patient. This means it's more comfortable, can reduce recovery time and really improve the quality of living for the person in question.
Helping with Education – Enabling more hands on learning
For students who are learning at university, college or school, 3D printing can have a positive impact on their educational journey. They will be able to partake in more hands-on learning with things such as creating tangible models of their ideas, enhancing STEM learning and being able to see things in a different way. It can show examples of things in a more detailed manner than just an image can.
