| There is a new impetus being put on advancing 3d printing in the USA by the Biden administration.
This will be met by some companies as an intrusion on their IP rights
but on net it stands to revolutionize the manufacturing landscape. There
a wealth of talented folks out there that can work in various aspects
of the field. Opportunities include... Designers, machine operators,
shipping systems managers, marketers... Filters for GCOD in FMP Find and replace functions. Key fields of knowledge advanced. G-Code which is the language that tells the machines what to do. Opportunities in creating editors for this one which tailor the code for various machines. Databases can be used to convert the code with various replacement scenarios. Marlin - Swoothie Ware - GRBL... which are the instruction sets which receive the G-code. Currently GRBL is considered favorably for LASERS. Marlin is common for 3d Printers Smoothie Ware is common for CNC machines. Lightburn The preeminent software for Laser etching and cutting for most. On the horizon is the advent of blue LASER diodes which even cut metal at 20 watts output. Markets Easiest to enter markets are for personalization and branding objects. Innovations in conductive filaments combined with electronic components stand to produce simpler items for domestic use. Merging Lasers, CNC, 3d printers into one location stand to be able to produce new and innovative items in shortening product cycles. Shredded Plastic Printer |
