Kumlando wokwenziwa kwezinto, kube nezindlela ezimbili ezihlukile ezivele eminyakeni emibili edlule. Enye indlela ye-Shapeways / Ponoko yakudala (noma i-B2C), encike enkampanini ephethe imishini yokwenziwa kwedijithali bese ifaka wonke amamodeli kupuleti elilodwa lokwakha bese ulithumela kuwe kanye / noma ngokuba nochungechunge oluqinile lwabaphakeli nabathengisi. Enye indlela isatshalaliswa ukwenziwa (noma i-P2P), lapho ibhizinisi linikeza inkundla yabanikazi bemishini nabadali ukuthi basebenzisane futhi ukulawula ikhwalithi kanye nokuhlaziywa kukhonjiswe endaweni yesikhulumi.
Eminyakeni edlule lapho iShapeways isencane, ngabuza elinye lamalungu eqembu lokuqala ukuthi kungani bengathembeli kwabanye abaphrinta be-3D emizini yabantu. Impendulo ibilula - izindleko bezizophakama kakhulu ukuthola imikhiqizo esezingeni eliphansi. Ukusheshisa eminyakeni emibili eyedlule lapho i-3DHubs isuka khona ngababuza ukuthi basebenzelana kanjani nokulawulwa kwekhwalithi - ngatshelwa ukuthi akukho zikhalazo zangempela ngekhwalithi esezivelile; abathengi babengakhathazekile kakhulu.
Ukusheshisa phambili kuze kube namuhla futhi isimemezelo sakamuva esivela kuShapeways yilokho bazobe bemema abanikazi be-3D Printers ukuthi bazobaphrinta. URinkak, ukwehluka kweJapan kweShapeways nakho kumemezele insizakalo efanayo, eqaphela ukuthi bafuna abantu abaningi babe yingxenye yenethiwekhi yabo. AbakwaShapeways abasho ukuthi lokhu kungukujika noma ukuguqulwa kohlelo kepha kunalokho, bakubeka njengengxenye yomsebenzi wabo “ukunikeza umphakathi wethu ukufinyelela ezinhlelweni zokuphrinta ze-3D ezingcono kakhulu futhi ezingabizi kakhulu emakethe, nokukhiqiza endaweni yangakini ngangokunokwenzeka. ”
I-Shapeways inezikhungo ezimbili ezinkulu ezikwazi ukuphrinta amakhulu ezinkulungwane zamamodeli we-3D ngokufunwayo, ngezikhathi eziguqukayo kwenye indawo endaweni engakapheli izinsuku ezimbalwa. Ngokwengeziwe, imishini isiyithole kangcono kakhulu futhi ishibhile; ngisho nemishini 'ephezulu-echelon' ekhiqiza inayiloni nensimbi ubukhulu bayo bushibhile kunezizukulwane ezedlule.
Ngakho-ke umbuzo uthi: ingabe ukukhiqizwa okusatshalaliswa ngabantu abaningi kuzobamba futhi kubuyisele indlela eqondile? Ngabe imikhiqizo emikhulu izoba ngamapulatifomu amakhulu, kungabi nalutho ngaphandle kwamaseva ambalwa namahhovisi ukukuxhumanisa nomshini nomphakathi wabadali?
Mhlawumbe hhayi ukuphrinta okwenziwa ekhaya, kepha kunengqondo ukucabanga ukuthi kunengqondo ukuthi kube nezitolo ezincane ezinayo yonke imishini edingekayo ekhipha ukuphrinta kwanoma iyiphi indawo yendawo.
Angiwukhathalele umqondo wokuthi konke okudingayo kuzovela emshinini owodwa, njengoba abantu abaningi bengakwazi ngisho nokulayisha umshini wokuwasha izitsha kahle noma ukusetha iphrinta yephepha. Mhlawumbe okusemathubeni amaningi ukuthi idolobha ngalinye elinabantu abangaphezu kuka-50,000 XNUMX lizoba nesikhala esizinikezele okungenani esinemishini ehlukene eyishumi yezinto zokwakha kanye nekhwalithi ezahlukahlukene ezikhiqiza umkhiqizo ophansi noma izinto eziguqula izinto ngokushesha ukuze zilethwe ngosuku olufanayo.
