Have #supplychain issues become a fixture of our daily lives?

According to John Nanry, COO of Fast Radius, it doesn't have to be. Read how nearly half of the #engineers surveyed have tried #JIT and moved away from the strategy. #cloudmanufacturing $FSRD

4️⃣ ways to save time and money on low volume #CNCmachining production runs:
- Use standardized, simple designs
- Avoid thin walls, tall walls, and narrow pockets
- Avoid unnecessary text or finishing processes
- Choose the proper material

Today’s #supplychain and #manufacturing infrastructure are broken. But is there a better way?

We think so.

#3Dprinting is a key enabler of a wide range of company goals, especially among small and medium-sized #manufacturers.

Follow the advice of industry thought leaders on the right way to enter #additivemanufacturing. https://t.co/pEXOacExcB

Until recently, #additivemanufacturing technologies weren't able to produce end-use parts. But now, with developed materials, techniques, and technologies, it has become a true competitor to traditional #manufacturing solutions.

[Fast Radius @fastradius]

Because #3Dprinted parts often have visible layer lines or rough surfaces, we recommend using a #postprocessing method to improve the look and feel, especially for an end-use product.
