Painting can be carried out by using brush or sprays. Polishing comes at the end; it enhances the final product of the 3D print. Post-processing techniques help in achieving desired look and feel of the 3D objects.
Technology Interconnectivity
Manufacturing sectors like automotive, aerospace and consumer goods industry is looking forward to 3D printing for its design benefits. With market share of $12 trillion; 3D printing industry offers technology neutral solutions. 3D printers are used in medical industry to design body parts; starting form metal joints to prosthetic masks; medical industry has accepted 3D printing for advancement. The year 2019 will be more innovative for medical industry. In aviation lightweight parts will replace the heavy metallic parts. For example Andreas Bastian from Autodesk has combined 3D metal printing with investment casting to produce magnesium-based airplane seats which are about 50 percent lighter than traditional seats. Companies like Adidas and Nike have already used 3D printers to produce objects at large scale. Industrial manufacturers who are thinking seriously to adopt 3D printing as a harmonious manufacturing technology for final productsshould come out of proprietary solutions that limit their flexibility and choice. 3D printing will create new business opportunities among the manufacturers. In 3D printing; technology and manufacturing is working together to become more flexible and efficient. Manufacturing process will witness an automated form of marketing in the year 2019.
