Amazon and its 3D printers<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Since desktop 3D printing began to take off a few years ago, Amazon saw a distribution opportunity and took it. In 2013, the company launched its\u00a0<\/span><\/span>3D Printers & Supplies<\/span><\/span><\/i> store<\/span><\/span>, which distributes machines, accessories and consumables. It is one of the first distributors in the world of domestic 3D printers, out before\u00a0many other manufacturers. It has only moved forward from there<\/span>, with the companie’s interest in technology gradually being revealed with several research projects<\/span><\/strong>. There has even been talk of a 3D mobile printing service or a 3D printed drone laboratory.<\/span><\/span><\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Undoubtedly the bets coming out of the big brands on the growth of 3D printing is a fact and every day larger companies are getting in on the action. 3D printer specialists like Ultimaker<\/a> are coming out with new printers on a steady basis. However, some surprising inputs have come from companies such as in the case of <\/span>Apple and its patents for 3D printers<\/span><\/a>.<\/span>\u00a0 But would Amazon’s 3D printer filament\u00a0 point to the first step in the launch of a 3D printing machine?<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
