Ken Burns of Forecast3D gave an important talk at the Pacific Design & Manufacturing Conference in February about what he calls the "untold truths" in 3D Printing.
This point can't be overemphasized. Every industry is guilty of believing it's own hype but new technologies at the start of that hyper growth phase are especially susceptible. Ken gave an excellent talk about the difficulties of scaling from good looking prototypes into full scale production and how that might just not be feasible. He emphasized the misunderstandings that come with designing for 3D Printing and perhaps most important, we both agree the industry still has a lot of learning to do before companies really understand how and when to use the many different additive technologies and materials.
Thanks Ken for taking the time to share your insights and experience with 3DTechTalks.
