The Emerging Printing Technology: 3D Printing
Release time:2013-05-07 Source:admin Reads:
The trend of 3D technology has been all the more shining with the advent of desktop 3D printers since the technology's pioneer Dr Adrian Bowyer at the University of Bath initiated his open-source design of a low-cost desktop 3D printer, completing the first RepRap 3D printer in 2007. Bowyer's design has since inspired many enthusiasts to build their own versions of desktop machines, including startup firms in the field like MakerBot Industries and Ultimaker.. In the past, the most commonly things printed by printing machine are like barcode labels, graphs, photos, etc. But people will never image that one day 3D printing could come true. Today with the rapid development of technology, 3D printing technology comes into being and becomes popular in people’s life. "I decided to give up my dream of getting a doctorate when 3D printing technology saw a pickup in growth in the US and Europe. I thought it might be time to start my own business," said Jin Tao, recalling his decision to set off in pursuit of a 3D printing business in late 2008 rather than going for a PhD from the University of Hong Kong. After going through setbacks offering 3D printing services for big online gaming companies at the initial stage, Jin made bold inroads into manufacturing his own desktop 3D printers in 2011. “ 3D printing is so amazing! ” Jin said, “differed from other ordinary printing stuff such as barcode labels, 3D printing is alive that gets out the control of the paper. ” Jin's company also started to distribute desktop 3D printers made by 3D Systems Inc, a Rock Hill, South Carolina-based industry heavyweight at the end of 2010. Foreign brands have so far no direct entry into the Chinese market, with many coming to the markets through Chinese distributors. Some of them specialized in barcode labels now switch to 3D technology for the purpose of creating more fabulous printing products. "It's pretty much the right choice," 30-year-old Jin, now co-founder and chief executive officer of Hangzhou-based Magicfirm LLC, said late Wednesday, pointing to his venturing into the hardware making arena.
