Now the investment community is focusing on projects such as mobile Internet applications, Internet finance and smart wearable devices, as if they will be the pigs in the wind.The gold mine that xiao bian will expound and excavate is a "pig" that can actually fly -- distributed manufacturing based on 3D printing and big data.This kind of manufacturing mode will thoroughly open up the Internet industry and manufacturing industry, and bring profound social changes to human beings.
1. Disputes under the new technology
3D printing technology is to design CAD 3D model on the computer first, and then 3D printer superimposes the material layer by layer, and finally produces the product.3D printing technology has the advantages of manufacturing on demand, reducing waste by-products, multiple combinations of materials, accurate physical reproduction, portable manufacturing and so on.These advantages can reduce the manufacturing cost by about 50%, shorten the processing cycle by 70%, and realize integrated design and manufacturing and complex manufacturing.
The current 3 d printing technology has been widely used in national defense, aerospace, shipbuilding industrial area, such as cars, in the construction industry, health care, doll toys, clothing accessories, food processing and other civil industry is just getting started.
In April 2012, the British economist indicates that 3 d printing technology is the most iconic of the third industrial revolution means of production, the technology combined with other digital production mode, will promote the realization of the third industrial revolution.As soon as this theory came out, there were many objections.
The most familiar example in the industry is terry gou, chairman of foxconn technology group.The manufacturing giant pointedly pointed out that 3D printing is just a gimmick, and if it can really disrupt the industry, "my guo will write backwards."
TCL chairman li dongsheng believes most about 3 d printing overstated, he did not believe in using 3 d printing to make a TV set, from which Angle no possibility, this is just a myth.
The more moderate view is that 3D printing is complementary and innovative to existing manufacturing, rather than a radical revolution."I don't think it will have a revolutionary, storm-like impact on the industry right now, but it will change gradually," says yan yan yan, a partner at sefu's Asian investment fund.Unlike Internet technology and stem cell technology, it has profoundly changed the entire human way of life.
