Vision

3D Systems' core corporate communication champions the possibilities enabled by 3D printing technology. The company supports and cheerleads the notion that 3D printing will revolutionize the way the world thinks and creates, and self-identifies as a leading innovator in a "disruptive" technology. The company believes 3D printing will positively impact global sustainability initiatives by reducing the carbon footprint of modern manufacturing's extensive need for shipping and inventory. 3D Systems projects a decentralized and re-localized future market in which private individuals or companies will be able to download digital designs for in-home or cloud printing.


3D Systems' CEO Abe Reichental predicts a future where "kids from 8 to 80" can design and print their ideas at home or locally. The company seeks to overcome design barriers of complex CAD software via 3D customization apps for mobile devices and the gamification of the design process to offer more intuitive software. The company claims it wants to bring "coloring book simplicity" to 3D printing.

Famous quotes containing the word vision:

    With the supermarket as our temple and the singing commercial as our litany, are we likely to fire the world with an irresistible vision of America’s exalted purpose and inspiring way of life?
    Adlai Stevenson (1900–1965)

    I wish I could take back some of the things I said and some of the things I did. But in the bigger picture, I don’t feel that it was violent and terrible. I feel like it was primarily—obviously not completely—moral, based on a vision that the government should be better, and that people could be better, and that democracy should be real.
    Bernardine Dohrn (b. 1942)
