Forget 3D printers, the wave of future digital manufacturing
3D printing is the latest buzz of fashion, but many believe it will only be part of a long chain of tools used in so-called downloadable projects, which are commonly called digital fabrication. It is difficult to clearly define what exactly is meant by this phrase; Imagine a world where "we'll download design on demand." It’s like music to our smartphone; dematerialized bits and bytes are collected as needed into a tangible product.
CNC machines and laser sharp machines will only be part of this world.
In an era of digital prevalence where digital data flows freely around the world, our physical world seems to be decades behind us. However, the development of digital manufacturing tools such as 3D printing, laser cutting and CNC milling are giving rise to new findings.
That's how the guy with the Autocad drawing differs from the guy with the hammer. The material that is created today is not collected manually. It's not a subject, it's a visual form of "algorithmically sculptural amorphous identification that, wobbles and moves in a circle on a screen in front of the audience." ?
It wouldn’t be possible (or at least it wouldn’t be that easy) without digitally processing an idea. This is why the so-called race to build the first 3D printing press in every home is so stupid. The digital revolution is happening online, not on printers.
The future of digital manufacturing is a journey from designer to tool. It allows to materialize high-tech products, if necessary, anywhere in the world.
Digital manufacturing will wash away all borders between countries and peoples, as it can be launched anywhere with the Internet.
Digital production will change the direction of the movement from globalization to local small-scale production. The monopoly of corporations in the world of discovery and consumption will end, as the monopoly on information from the media with all their budgets will end.
