There’s been a lot of talk about how 3D printing could fundamentally alter global supply chains, but new analysis from the Dutch Nautical Institute of Shipping and Shipbuilding argues that the first effects will be felt most heavily in the shipbuilding industry, with scores of vessels already equipped with 3D printers to reproduce spare parts while at sea.
