3D printing becoming more popular

Employees of banner printing companies in Toronto may want to look at the innovative, 3D Print technology that a Print company is using. Ottawa’s XYZ-RGB Inc. is able to employ a special, 3D printer in order to do a host of printing jobs that Print companies without this technology simply can’t do.

Hollywood studios have even come calling for XYZ-RGB’s services, asking for their scanning information services. The movie-making world isn’t the only place that’s interested in this technology, as the 3D printer can be applied to other industries. For instance, car parts, space shuttles and human tissue have been produced with a helping hand from 3D printer technology like the kind found at this Ottawa Print house.

According to the chief executive of XYZ-RGB, one Helmut Kungl, the use of a special, 3D printer is so easy that he has compared it to a Star Trek replicator in that the information for a design is put in via a file, and then the physical, 3D part emerges from the machine.

The special, 3D printer at his company uses metals and state-of-the-art plastics that work together to make an object from a computer-based model. This technology forecasts what the future of manufacturing will be like, from how cars are made to how medicine is developed. The duration of each printing job varies from task to task; a demonstration for an iPhone 4 sleeve by Kungl took about three hours.
Print companies in Toronto with an eye on emerging technologies as a means to expand the services they offer may well soon offer such services.
