As a company, 3DPRINTUK is embedded in the additive manufacturing (AM) / 3D printing world. What we very rarely have to do is look at 3D printing from the perspective of someone not experienced in its use, unaware of the benefits it can bestow on a product development and product manufacturing project. Now let’s take a leap.
