Another important advantage of 3D printing stems from its inherently digital nature . It ’ s simple to gather data about the manufacturing process because everything is connected and tracked digitally . This data , in turn , can be used to optimize manufacturing processes .
Simulation is a perfect example . Simulation technology predicts how a part will behave during the print process , allowing teams to reduce both the risk of errors and the total cost of printing each part . This significantly increases the chances of producing the right part with minimal iterations , saving time and minimizing material waste .
Monitoring is another advantage of the Energy technology company Wärtsilä digital nature of manufacturing . 3D printers relied on Oqton ’ s simulation technology can be connected to the Internet of Things during the development of an innovative ( IoT ) so that engineers can monitor the 3D-printed pump impeller . Simulation production process in real time , detect was instrumental in bringing the project problems as soon as they emerge and to fruition with minimal iterations automatically implement changes to keep and material waste . production moving efficiently .
