3DOS has announced that it will integrate its extensive 3D printing network with the Sui blockchain platform. This integration will enable users, 3D printers and manufacturers to connect via a global, accessible and decentralised network.
The idea behind 3DOS is to establish the world’s largest peer-to-peer 3D printing network. With the integration of Sui, users all over the world should be able to use 3D printers locally and as required. This minimises the need for warehousing, avoids material waste and reduces the cost of international deliveries. This technology promises to fundamentally change the manufacturing industry and strengthen local production.
A key aspect of the partnership is the optimisation of coordination in the production process. Traditional manufacturing systems are often characterised by high latency times and inefficient processes, which lead to higher costs. By decentralising production with Sui, these challenges can be overcome. The aim is to enable global production on demand and thus utilise production capacities efficiently.
The importance of this collaboration becomes particularly clear in the context of the global manufacturing market, which has an annual volume of around USD 15.6 trillion. The integration of 3DOS and Sui could strengthen local manufacturers worldwide, especially in regions where conventional manufacturing is not practical. Users can thus directly access unused 3D printing capacities and have their own products produced.
The founders of 3DOS have already developed a successful 3D printing operating system that is used by over 500,000 users worldwide. Customers include big names such as Google, MIT and the US Navy. The cooperation with Sui marks an important step towards decentralised manufacturing, where designs can be produced worldwide with a single click.
