    About this ebook

    As 3D printing is becoming popular, many people are striking a fortune and making it big in the industry. Such achievement may not be a cakewalk, but then seeking ways to get a breakthrough is by far the only way to get there and realize what others have conceptualized into moneymaking means. If you have always had interest in 3D printing and you are into making money with this technology, it is about time you worked smart to beat the challenges ahead. 


    3D printable models may be created with a computer-aided design (CAD) package, via a 3D scanner, or by a plain digital camera and photogrammetry software. 3D printed models created with CAD result in reduced errors and can be corrected before printing, allowing verification in the design of the object before it is printed.

    Several projects and companies are making efforts to develop affordable 3D printers for home desktop use. Much of this work has been driven by and targeted at DIY/Maker/enthusiast/early adopter communities, with additional ties to the academic and hacker communities.

    Three-dimensional printing makes it as cheap to create single items as it is to produce thousands and thus undermines economies of scale. It may have as profound an impact on the world as the coming of the factory did....Just as nobody could have predicted the impact of the steam engine in 1750—or the printing press in 1450, or the transistor in 1950—it is impossible to foresee the long-term impact of 3D printing. But the technology is coming, and it is likely to disrupt every field it touches.

    Introduction

    3D PRINTING TECHNOLOGY is supposedly new but technically it can be dated back to 1984 when the technology was actually patented by Charles Hull, an American Engineer, who invented Stereolithography Apparatus (SLA). The technology first hit the manufacturing roadblock. Even after the patent was conferred, it took another 6 years to actually manufacture the machine. It was built in 1992. By the same time, a start-up named DTM Corp, invented the world’s first Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) Machine. This time the technology hit a commercial roadblock. It was far from commercially viable and after years of struggle, it struck gold in the year 2000 when the world’s first 3D printed organ was implanted in a human body. 3D printing technology shook the world for good and from then onwards it never looked back. Scientist and researchers noticed the potential and future prospects and suddenly a two-decade old technology seemed to be the newest craze in the world. The world saw regular innovations, new applications, its viability and even commercial usage on large scale. Investments started pouring in and people thought it as a safe bet. A technology like every other, which starts slow but ends up being the most sought after, 3D printing is here to stay and make lives more easy and desirable.

    3D Printing has vast applications ranging from plastic products to footwear, from automotive to aerospace, from prototyping products to jewelry and to the latest being Food Printing. But the most interesting application relates to the Healthcare Industry. This has grown from one of the applications to being a completely separate industry. According to a survey carried out by Visiongain, it is estimated that by the year 2018, the 3D healthcare industry will be worth $4 billion. Let’s explore the current scenario
