Cheap Products
Widespread adaptation and application of 3D printing will in the near future reduce the prices of products substantially, by eliminating the need to ship items thus the need to pay for shipping charges. Consumers will only be purchasing blueprints then printing the products at home. This will make products extremely cheap especially those bought overseas. Home-crafting Industrialized Objects
3D printing is basically transforming our homes to small factories where we can fabricate practically anything we want. With a 3D printer, one can fabricate objects that were previously made at the industry level such as violins, guitars, rings, jewellery, toy cars and even a bicycle. Micro and Nano Structures
The Photonic Professional GT is a 3D printer that can create objects of widths as small as a human hair. This 3D printer has extended the applications of 3D printing into fabrication of micro and nano structures. Applications in the Medical Field
One of the greatest benefits of 3D printing has been experienced through its facilitation of organ transplants in the medical field. Scientists now Use 3D Printing to Create Artificial Organs that can be used in transplants to help needy patients. For instance, deformed babies who are born without an ear(s) can now be given artificial ears made through 3D printing. The technology has proven to be a great medical solution to previous organ transplant challenges. Advanced 3D Prototyping
Before 3D printing had its foothold in the creation of prototypes, it would take normal prototyping procedures a few days to create a single complete prototype. Additive manufacturing however takes only a few hours, substantially increasing the number of prototypes that can be created a day. This has sped up industrialization processes to a great extent because it is now quite easy to Create a Prototype, make modifications and then produce the final product. Essentially, the technology has made it easy to convert an idea into the actual product.

The automobile industry has been readily adopting 3D printing as a prototyping tool over the past few years, but very few 3D printed parts have yet been actually used in commercial cars before. That’s why we were very impressed by the radical new design concept of the Peugeot Fractal, which is set to debut later this month at the Frankfurt Auto Show in Germany. This gorgeous concept car is absolutely packed with futuristic technology and 3D printed parts, including more than 80 percent of all trim surfaces of the interior.

Robots and 3D printing are a combination that goes right back to the dawn of the 3D printer, but we rarely see them combined with a microscope. Because that is what you’ll need to see the 3D printed smart ‘microfish’ robots, developed by a team of researchers from the University of California to inject in bloodstreams and perform complex medical tasks. The diverse capabilities attributed to them include functioning as sensors, detoxification, directed drug delivery and much more.

Although we may hear about 3D printed prosthetics which are designed for humans on a seemingly weekly basis, the technology is just as useful when it comes to saving bird beaks, too. Just earlier this year, four Costa Rican 3D printing businesses - Elementos 3d, Ewa!corps, Publicidad Web and Grupo Sommerus - were able to produce a 3D printed prosthetic beak for a severely injured toucan bird in Alajuela, Costa Rica after discovering that it had been hit with a stick by a group of teenagers.

While we’ve seen just how powerful 3D printing can be in aiding doctors during a surgical process, we’re still yet to see the full spectrum of what’s possible. When considering how many different parts there are in the human body, it’s clear that nearly anything is possible and there’s still a lot of unknown territory left to explore. More recently, doctors in China used 3D printing to aid in the surgery of a young 9-year-old girl who underwent surgery to repair a deformed ear.
