Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Unlike traditional manufacturing, there is not likely to be a cost advantage from locating three-dimensional printing sites abroad. By instead allowing production to be completed in closer proximity to the customer, it facilitates just-in-time production close to the place of assembly or sale and reduces the need for large production runs and the time and money required for transporting and warehousing of products.
