3D printing will be the end of factories

3D printing will not replace factories. But it will enable consumers to enjoy lower minimum order quantities (MOQ) for certain products in the future. Just like computer printers, it has not replaced mass printed media but it enabled the private user to make his own documents. 3D printing will enable private users to make certain objects at their home or office, instead of having to have it done in a machine shop, etc.
