Zero skill manufacturing
To make an object of equal complexity,
a 3D printer requires fewer operator skills than any other manufacturing technology.
Variety is free
Additive Manufacturing removes the overhead costs associated with re-training human operators or re-tooling factory machines. A 3D printer needs only a different digital file and a new material.
