Mr. Harisiadis: What Makes A 3d Printer Unique?

820 Words4 Pages

What makes the 3D printer unique is the way in which it produces the final product. When producing a product normally, without a 3D printer, there will always be wasted materials, some of which could not be recycled. This effects the products final prices when they have to incorporate the extra material into the cost of the product. If the material is a type which could be recycled, there are recycling fees they need to pay to the companies which take care of the excess material, in the end incorporating that price into the final price making the consumer take care of that. 3D printers on the other hand do not have any waste or so minimal it could not be measured easily.

That is why I believe it will take that long to finally make a difference.” The more Mr. Harisiadis talked the more I would find myself agreeing with him. Even though our time frames are slightly different, we both agree that the 3D printers will be the first steps of taking society to the
