The Untapped Potential of 3-D Printing

Ryan Bushey, Associate Editor

Joseph DeSimone, the CEO of manufacturing firm Carbon3D, was a featured speaker at the TED Conference in Vancouver last week. The focus of his seminar was on the potential of 3-D printing.

DeSimone specifically highlighted the machine he co-created telling the audience it is “25 to 100 times faster” than the other printers currently on the market. His creation uses light and oxygen [1] to quickly manufacture a fleshed-out product from a pool of resin.

The chief executive touted the benefits of his creation’s speed and efficiency, and further expanded upon the potential his printer could have in making customized stents or developing detailed dental molds in the time it could take for a dentist to complete a routine checkup.
