"The machine is only so small?"
"You see that the sole is really quite real!"
"Is the inside solid or hollow?"
In a room outside the DRC Industrial Design and Creative Industry Base in Beijing, a dozen customers surrounded us. They looked curiously at the locked glass door. Some people hurried to ask questions, and others tried to answer in an uncertain tone. At two o'clock in the afternoon, the "master" of the room opened the door on time, and everyone was able to snuggle in, and couldn't wait to get close to the "exploration" of the showcase.
This is the scene of China's first 3D printing experience hall. All the ornaments that people can see, such as lampshades, shoes, toys, and figures in the room, are not industrial lines or made by hand. They all come from a single machine—a 3D printer.
Perhaps you haven't seen this strange machine, you have never understood the concept of 3D printing technology, but you may remember some scenes in the movie:
In "Star Trek", the protagonist sends a "water" password to a machine and a glass of water appears. In the "cloud image", the rich food is "printed" by the machine; in the "Fifth Element," there is a The machine "prints" the bones, muscles, and skin of the heroine.
This is 3D printing.
3D printing is the technology of the last century
In the showcase of the 3D printing experience hall, there are portraits of different sizes. The hair is clear and legible, the skin color is different between the light and shade, and the clothes are quite textured. This is not the crafty master who squeezed out the clay figurines, but 3D. The printer "made".
According to Shao Moyu, the person in charge of the 3D printing experience hall, people use the 3D printer to print portraits and take pictures before the customer stands in front of the white scenery. The photographer scans the real person through 360 degrees with a 3D scanner to create a 3D print file after obtaining body data. The printer will "restore" the portrait in accordance with the data. Due to the long time and expensive materials, 3D printed portraits are expensive. Despite this, there are still 30 to 40 customers per month to experience this new printing technology.
After coming to search for business opportunities, Meng Dechao listened to Shao Moyu's explanation and laughed and said: "If you already have this technology, you don't have to be photographed for the crime of being married. To print out the couple directly, isn't it better?"
In fact, 3D printing technology is not a new product. It is called "the last century's thinking, the last century's technology, the market of this century." As early as 1986, American scientist Hull invented the world's first 3D printer.
The 3D printing technology originated from the photographic sculpture and geomorphology forming techniques studied by the United States more than 100 years ago. It has taken shape in the 1980s and its scientific name is “rapid prototypingâ€. As a carrier to implement this technology, the principle of 3D printers is actually very simple. The printer is filled with "printing materials" such as liquids or powders. By entering data, it can superimpose "printed materials" one by one, and the printed products can be used immediately. Initially, it was widely used in the field of industrial design.
Shao Moyu said: "Despite the fact that 3D printing technology has already been produced, it is nearly one year to raise awareness in the country." Today, it is a fixed day for customers to explain every week. There are always a large number of customers booking in advance.
The global promotion of 3D printing technology is growing at an alarming rate. In the January 2013 issue of the “Global Science†magazine, the Top Ten Newsworths that have the most profound impact on human society were selected in 2012. “3D Printing†ranks ninth on the grounds that “3D printing will be used in manufacturing and The scientific field has triggered a revolution."

Can I print a pet for me
Our understanding of 3D printing technology may be much less than that of 3D movies, but in fact, it may be closer to you.
Recently, somebody asked the designer Song Rike on Weibo: “I recently lost my pet and I couldn’t afford it. Can a 3D printer print a pet for me?â€
Song Rizhao replied: "In theory, it is possible. If you provide a photo of love pet, the printed result is very realistic."
In Song Riye's eyes, 3D printers are omnipotent. In 2011, when the students and teachers around her did not know what 3D printing was, she saw the word 3D printing on the Internet. At the time she was preparing to do a graduation project. She was suffering from mechanization and could not match the things she wanted to create.
"No matter how complex and indescribable it is, it can be done." In Song Ri's view, it's important to do something like that on an expensive machine: "Now everyone is familiar with personal customization, or a relatively low-end 3D. Print, stay in the production of goods or gadgets." But Song Ri used it to achieve their own design ideas, she felt that the use of 3D printing technology made a never-ending work.
With the popularity of 3D printing technology, you may soon be buying a home 3D printer and implementing wacky ideas through this machine. According to Shao Moyu, in fact, many people have already done so. Hearing this, Meng Decha whispered: "Who will spend so much money on a machine and use expensive materials to make toys at home?"
"This is a new experience, a new revolution. It can be used to make disruptive creation." Song ripple said. At the same time, she stressed: "3D printing technology has its advantages, but it can not ignore its defects, high cost, long time, limited material. It has very high technical requirements."
Although there are still defects, 3D printing technology will bring changes to our lives, but it is beyond doubt.
Nowadays, in the automotive industry, designers are already accustomed to using 3D printing technology to make rapid models when designing new parts; medical equipment companies are also trying to use this technology to manufacture complete prostheses, and new prostheses will be more traditional than traditional methods. It's cheaper to make and even machine washable. In the field of cultural relics protection, 3D printing technology also played an important role. Researchers at the Semitic Museum of Harvard University used it to successfully repair a lion that had once been shattered. The 3D printing technology is also very common in movies. 007: The Aston Martin DB5 model of the 1960s that appeared in the explosion scene of the Big Sky Broke Murderer is a model printed by a 3D printer.
Although the application of 3D printing technology has been so widespread, it is still not known whether 3D printing will "promote and realize the third industrial revolution with other digital production models" as the British "Economist" magazine claims.

Is we changing you and me with 3D or 3D?
3D printers will be able to build a house in one day, in the future to replace the architects; 3D printing will change the pattern of medical care; the first 3D printing car came out... Similar news common networks, can not help but guess that 3D printing technology will bring us How come the future?
"How about the prospects of 3D printers?" Every time a group of customers are received, Shao Moyu will be asked this question several times. He only shakes his head and laughs and says: "I don't know in the future." Someone interrupted: "Two days ago News reports that 4D printing has appeared. Can anyone be right?"
Visitors to the 3D Experience Center got together to discuss how to apply 3D printing technology to business. Some wanted to use it as a creative product, and some wanted to do wedding products. Everyone's ideas are focused on personal customization. They are concerned about whether the machine is expensive, has a long life, and can be updated at a faster rate.
Niu Jiayue, who is also interested in 3D printing technology, has his own opinion: “Most people directly consult the commercial value of 3D printers. And I think that 3D printing technology is a terminal solution to the manufacturing and manufacturing process. It is the ultimate solution. The goal is to 'don't worry about who is going to process, who will make it'. As long as the machine is good enough and close enough to actual needs, it can put all your ideas into practice."
In Niu Jiayue's opinion, all questions will lie in whether you have ideas or ideas. Simply applying 3D printing technology to custom gifts and live-action statues is just the tip of the iceberg in the field of application of this technology. "If we don't do the principle research, we don't develop machines independently, we don't develop software and applications independently, we will certainly fall behind in this productivity revolution, and it will remain the lowest level in the world's factory value chain."
Whatever people intend to do with this technology, it is undeniable that it has developed extremely rapidly.
Song Rimo affirmed: "The 3D printing technology has many possibilities. In a few years, it will infiltrate every aspect of people's lives."
There are also many people who worry that with 3D printing technology, mechanized production and manual production will be replaced. Song Rike believes that this will not happen. "They meet different needs. 3D printing is more suitable for small batches and customization."
Niu Jiayue speculates, is it right? One day, our life will become like this: do not have to buy clothes, want to wear what, choose materials and styles at night, tomorrow morning will be printed by the 3D printer to present in front of you. What kind of Christmas tree do you want to put up for Christmas? Tell the custom website directly. A unique 3D Christmas tree will be delivered to your door a few days later.
