3D printed parts at the snap of a finger. Almost.
You could wait weeks on a repair part for a downed machine, or you could receive the part overnight and have the machine back up and running the next morning.
3D printing (aka additive manufacturing) uses industrial-grade technology to "print" solid materials layer-by-layer to produce a finished part. Fast. With no upfront tooling fees or added costs for complexity, this simplifies your production process, shortens delivery times, reduces inventory and saves money. Today, 3D printing is disrupting the supply chain, showing up in hospitals, manufacturing plants, home-building and countless other industries. It’s also something you probably didn’t expect from UPS.
