Societal impact

Making production processes more sustainable

Digital printing can be seen as a game-changing technology that will contribute greatly to more sustainable production processes and more efficient logistics. It is going to turn entire high-tech value chains upside down, in the semicon, apparel industry, food, consumer electronics, et cetera. The possibility of applying materials very accurately and with great flexibility, also in small production runs, leads to the replacement of traditional processes in various industries. You can color textiles with a printer instead of a paint bath. The semicon can use printing to deposit functional layers such as conductors or insulation. Printing an optical structure that is placed on TV screens makes it possible to switch between a 2D and 3D viewing experience. It is conceivable to replace cabling in cars with printed circuits on the bodywork. And the low-cost printing of dental prostheses not only gives a better result than the current casting process, but also enables decentralizing production.

Moving towards a printed world

The formability of 3D printing means there are fewer design constraints. This makes it easier to produce small series. It also brings along new possibilities to combine new materials and combinations of materials. Moreover, production can take place closer to the end-consumers or OEM. This will eventually lead to efficiency in logistics. In short: from the world of printing we are gradually moving towards a printed world. Additive manufacturing is a game-changing technology in all fields that will have an enormous impact on future industry.
