Organizations have long focused on leveraging new technologies like rapid prototyping as well as 3D printing through computerized design software. These companies are also using raw materials like metal, plastic, resin, thermoplastic, fiber, and ceramic to manufacture aesthetic designs at reduced costs.
It would be interesting to see how the partnership between Tata Technologies and Stratasys transforms the Indian manufacturing sector in the upcoming years.
