3.3 3D Printing 3D printing also known as “additive manufacturing” which is one of the method of manufacturing. 3D printing developed as automated method of producing prototypes at first. The basis of 3D printing is to build up the layers of material such as ceramics, plastics, or metal powder by using a computer aided design. A three dimensional product will be produced after each layer is “printed” and this is referred to “additive” process (Manners-Bell & Lyon 2014). 3.3.1 The important of 3D printing First of the importance of 3D printing is customization based on customer requirement. 3D printing are able to produce any design depends on consumers requirements which satisfied the consumers. Personalize products such as clothing or furniture, customers may bring on their design to the 3D printing shop and the items will be produce followed by customer requirements. By using 3D printing, producer may produce the product by using the material such as plastics. This will reduce the cost of manufacturing. Furthermore, traditional productions will produce the waste of materials that cannot be reused and is inefficient. This is a cost to the manufacture and takes more time to produce another product. 3D printing will design the shape of the product first and produce it according to that shape. Besides, 3D printing also helps …show more content…
First of the disadvantage is limited materials. 3D printed parts are built in additive fashion which is layer-by-layer from the ground up. Although this technology is a major breakthrough in the process, the materials that can be used is limited. For example, the selected 3D printing material is plastic, because it can be deposited in the molten layer to form the final part. The kinds of plastic vary among the likes of high-strength and high temperature materials, so part strength cannot be accurately tested in many
Manufacturing – within a business the manufacturing department works alongside several other departments such as marketing and purchasing to make sure that they manufacture products efficiently. Manufacturing is generally a long process as detailed designs of products have to be assembled before construction can begin. Manufacturing varies can depend on the organisation type large companies are likely to manufacture products themselves, and they tend to do this on a large scale in order to be able to buy resources in bulk in order to save a substantial amount of money. Small businesses tend to design their own products but may not have the ability to manufacture; therefore they usually hire other companies to manufacture for them - this can be quite costly, so they commonly perform manufacturing on a large scale
A union bug typically contains a genuine label representing the code that offers identification of the printing company that has done the work of the printing. A graphic representation of the union may be printed through a union bug printing. Particularly when the printing services are offered with the union bug on it, it offers with a high level of genuineness on the printing work done. The print shop of East Cross Printing offers this facility to its customers, especially considering the politicians.
The 1950s saw the full development of a design movement that is apparently the most critical visual design style of the twentieth century as far as its sweeping effect, its life span, and its scope of pragmatic applications is concerned. The style started in Switzerland and Germany and is often alluded to as Swiss Style, yet it is formally known as the International Typographic Style. Its strength in numerous territories of graphic design covers a twenty-year period from the early 1950s to the late 60s, yet it remains impactful up till the recent times. As Richard Hollis puts forward in his book “Swiss Graphic Design: The Origins and Growth of an International Style, 1920-1965”, the Swiss Style has vital elements that are widespread throughout
(Document 9). Before mass production, every product had to made by hand and took a long time, which increased the cost of the item. Using mass production to quickly and efficiently create the good allowed the item to be valued at a cheaper cost. Now everyone could buy simple goods, not only the
One of the disadvantages was wasted resources. If there was anything with the product design, or the assembly line, that meant every item in the entire production cycle was effected. When this happened, the manufacturer would often have to get rid of all f these items, attempt to fix the issue, and start over. This led to a lot of wasted product, which was an even bigger problem when resources were limited to begin with. Alon with concern of wasted resources due to manufacturing discrepencies, there was no assurance that the products would sell even if they were all made correctly.
Despite the positive ethical implications of 3D printing in the food industry, there are several negative ethical implications that should be considered as well. Comparisons can be made with the controversies surrounding Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs), in which the technology and supply of GMO seeds has over the years been patented and controlled by biotech conglomerates such as Monsanto (National Research Council, 2000). Similarly, the production of raw food materials utilised for 3D food printing, such as animal tissues and hydrocolloids, is a technologically intensive process. This can potentially be monopolised and controlled by private corporations if existing legal frameworks are excessively protective of intellectual property (IP) rights (Pollan, 2012). Ethical dilemmas exist because while supporters of stringent IP laws may argue that these protections promote corporate innovation and technological advancements (Spectar, 2002), this monopoly on the production technology could impede the global accessibility of these 3D-printed food technologies across geographical regions, income
The variety and assortment of products in today’s world is growing heavily making consumer decisions harder and harder. Thus, the need of in-store visual merchandising be-comes relevant as never before. The more choices consumers are faced with, the more time they tend to spend while making purchasing decision, and visual merchandising may help to facilitate those choices. This reflection paper is aimed at drawing understanding on how visual merchandising influence consumer behaviour and how it stimulates the purchase de-cision.

Lean Manufacturing Pros Lean manufacturing aims to eliminate most if not all forms of waste. Many experts claim that by implementing lean manufacturing techniques and strategies reduce the manufacturing time. As manufacturing lead time is lowered, it is the hope that the operational costs incurred from the use of energy will also be significantly reduced. Lean manufacturing helps companies maintain and increase their profits and earning. It also helps them generate a little more savings as the costs are lower.
Limitations • It is always difficult to implement Changes. • If Lean / Six Sigma is not successful then there could be loss. • The investment on New Process & Procedures may be Costly.
So you do know about virtual Reality? Virtual reality is a new type of technology that helps people so the following: VR allows people with disabilities, like a walking disorder, to experience the feeling of walking without going anywhere. It also helps with rehab. Also, it helps training for a new job (like being being a jet flyer) that can be very dangerous. Another advantage is that it can keep kids busy with games and activities so parents can cook or clean or do whatever they need to do.

Fix or replace damaged tissue; biology has always been the main concern for scientists. Today, the most important instrument for tissue engineering scientists to produce replacement tissues and implants to repair or replace damaged tissue. Tissue engineering is generating a new field of study in which the principles of engineering and biology to correct the damaged tissue, uses and can renewal, operation and maintenance of tissue healing. In order to use an ideal scaffold Tissue engineering should have features such as non-toxic Cell and tissue properties to be fit.
Has people's use of Photoshop gone too far? Is altering photos to make people unrealistically skinny a good idea? For years, many photos in magazines, advertisements, etc. have been altered, making models and celebrities blemish free and thin. But in some cases of retouched photos the outcome can be horrific, making the person very unprofessional and disturbing. But making models thinner than they actually are can have bad effects on the public.
Product design can fulfil the demands of the customers and they are willing visit the same company again in the future. Referencing to the words of Vonderembse (n.d.),
