| In order to 3D printing The industry has risen to a whole new level. Hewlett-Packard Co., the global printing and personal computer giant, announced that its metal 3D printing solution will enter the market later this year, thereby driving the development of global manufacturing worth $12 trillion. It is understood that HP entered the additive manufacturing (AM) field in 2016 and currently has an industrial-grade Jet Fusion 3D printing solution based on polymers (plastics).  'We will publish an announcement on metal printing later this year to reveal to the world what technologies we will use. There are several metal technologies here, and we will share the technologies we have already embarked on to further advance and invest further,' Hewlett-Packard Ramon Pastor, vice president and general manager of Multi-injection Fusion, said. Pastor confirmed that HP CEO Dion Weisler has claimed since the end of last year that HP will plan to sell 3D printers that produce metal objects around the world. Some engineers and researchers are studying the future 3D printing technology , This is a highly secure Hewlett-Packard facility, this is the 'take-off' of its 3D printing dream. Printing metal-based products will bring new opportunities for HP, from automotive to defense, from aerospace to orthopedic and dental implants. According to data from the United States Grand View Research, by 2025, the global metal 3D printing market is expected to reach 2.86 billion U.S. dollars, and it is expected that the Asia Pacific region will achieve significant growth. This is due to the rapid development of manufacturing and the economic development of China, India and other countries. rapid development. Pastor said: 'We will soon share some key information about our listing strategy and metal 3D printing.' Metal 3D printing has been widely adopted by aerospace and defense industries in major regions of the world. According to a report released by Marketsand Markets, titanium and its alloys are mainly used in aerospace engineering applications such as the manufacture of engine parts because of their high strength, light weight, and excellent corrosion resistance. Due to their biocompatibility, they are also used in biomedical applications such as orthopedic and dental implants as well as artificial knee and hip replacement operations. In a recent report, MarketsandMarkets stated that the amount of metal 3D printing consumed by the aerospace and defense sectors accounted for more than one-third of the total metal 3D printed end-user market. Desktop Metal, 3D Systems, several well-known companies such as EOS and Stratasys and some start-up companies are all dedicated to building and providing metal 3D printers. Companies such as GE Additive are using metal 3D printing technology to develop aerospace parts. In this case, early adopters adopting some strategic cooperation and acquisition actions will soon gain greater market share. 'We are willing to cooperate in the 3D printing market. We have established some key partnerships with the 3D experience leader Dassault Systèmes, the German integrated enterprise Siemens and some material manufacturers to maintain the ecosystem,' Pastor said. 'Our goal is to work with more stakeholders to ensure that our customers get an end-to-end solution on time,' he added. Regarding the acquisition part, HP executives stated that the company will maintain open options, but currently there is no such plan. 'So far, our goal is to be more organic, but we will keep our choice. At present, we are building our technology organically,' Pastor said. In addition to manufacturing, HP executives are optimistic about the prototype manufacturing industry. 'We have prepared a low-cost 300/500 series MJF 3D printer, especially for prototyping. We hope to provide designers with a prototype of the same technology used in the manufacture of final parts,' explained Pastor. The HP Jet Fusion 300/500 series will be priced at US$50,000 in the second half of 2018 to support small and medium-sized product development teams and design companies, entrepreneurs, and universities and research institutes. This will enable manufacturers to produce full-color, black or white engineering grade features. 'Regardless of your industry, no matter what your design complexity, no matter what your business needs are, the new HP Jet Fusion 300/500 Series allows you to freely create new parts freed from the limitations of traditional production methods. ,' said Nigro, president of 3D Printing at Stephen Hewlett-Packard.
