3D printing In the past years, 3D printing has received a lot of attention for its role in easing supply chain congestion, especially with regard to small spare parts.   Experts believe that the next big step in 3D printing may be with large metal objects, which are produced quickly and at a competitive cost, if used on a large scale, it may reimagine supply chains and manufacturing methods, according to the Emirati statement.   An article in the US "Forbes" magazine reports that the large-scale use of new metallic 3D printing technology could reimagine the supply chain and revolutionize the way large industrial products, such as aircraft and cars, are manufactured, reducing the cost and carbon footprint of wholesale manufacturing.   For the supply chain, the effect of the 3D printer, or the so-called "additive manufacturing", and what it basically entails building a 3D object using "Computer Aided Design" (CAD) technology to add a layer of materials on t...
