Disruptive Manufacturing / Innovation
Impact of 3D printing and other technology innovation

What is Disruptive Innovation /
Manufacturing
Disruptive innovation
A disruptive innovation is an innovation that helps create a new market and
value network, and eventually goes on to disrupt an existing market and
value network (over a few years or decades), displacing an earlier
technology. The term is used in business and technology literature to
describe innovations that improve a product or service in ways that the
market does not expect, typically first by designing for a different set of
consumers in the new market and later by lowering prices in the existing
market
From Wikipedia

Manufacturing Challenges
CORPORATE
• Attract new/young employees (2009
downturn)
• Revenue growth
• Margin and Profit growth
• Reduce product risk; business risk
COMPLIANCE
• Global Regulatory Requirements
• TS-16949 Reduce Risk
• Industry Standards: APQP, PPAP, FMEA
• RoHS, WEEE
OPERATIONS
• Bring new products to market faster
• Reduce Manufacturing costs
• Shorter lifecycle
• Complex Products and Supply Chains
CUSTOMERS
• Higher Value Products
• Higher Quality
• Lower Prices
• Faster Delivery
How can you be more competitive?

3D Printing
In the 27 years since, additive manufacturing has evolved from Hall's
original concept into a thriving, diverse collection of techniques and
technologies that fall under the "3-D printing" umbrella. These include
fused deposition modeling, ink jet printing and laser sintering –
technologies that have brought the power of 3-d printing everywhere
from the home workshop to the factory floor.

Industries
• Aerospace
• Exotic Materials – less waste w/additive process
• High value; Relatively low volume
• Dental/Medical
• Dental, Prosthetics, Filling
• Mass customization; low volume
• Automotive
• Unique fabrication of repair parts
• Fabrication of Tooling and Prototypes
• Consumer specialty
• Jewelry, Toys, Lampshades
