33 Freight Summing Up Freight volumes have been increasing slowly and unevenly Trucking industry capacity problem is a serious issue and could hit the tipping point next year Economy Expect continued slow growth GDP around 3 percent Higher inventories could become a drag on the economy While hiring is growing and the unemployment rate is slowly dropping; jobs are not keeping up with population growth and the biggest growth sector is part-time jobs Consumer sentiment had been rebounding, but took a hit during the government shutdown Budget and debt ceiling resolutions put off again

34 3D Printing is at an inflection point 34 $15+ billion industry by 2017 The lead time for 500 units has been shortened to three days. In the aircraft world, that s quick for certified production parts. Justin Kelly, Kelly Manufacturing Company Functional parts now most prevalent Source: Wohler Associates, Stratasys, Liberty Advisor Group analysis

35 3D Printing changes everything One printer makes many shapes >> No retooling 2. Small footprint manufacturing >> Production everywhere 3. No lead time from design to production >> Instant speed-to-market 4. Skill is in design, not manufacturing >> Anyone can make everything 5. Only make what s required >> No waste by-products 6. No assembly required >> Reduced product complexity 7. Infinite blends of materials >> Better products 8. Duplicate, edit, copy physical objects >> Make what you see 9. Unlimited design space >> Think it, make it! 10. The printer does it all >> Manufacturing complexity is free Source: Melba Kurman: 10 Principles of 3D Printing, Liberty Advisor Group

36 3D Printing readiness issues Economics o Identify immediate opportunities for 3D Printing to save cost/improve features/increase service on existing product offerings o Map intermediate and long term opportunities for 3D Print conversion Internal factors: products, suppliers, processes, customer sacrifice, etc. External factors: materials, printer capacity/cost, infrastructure, etc. Product Development & Innovation o New part properties o Simplified components o Lighter weight o Repair rather than replacement Organization o Product development and manufacturing integration Re-design for 3D Printing, not traditional production technologies - New part properties based on new capabilities - Simplified components - Lighter weight, etc. Integrate 3D Printers as suppliers in production lines Crowd-sourcing vs. traditional procurement Process re-engineering

37 Where do I begin? 1.SHOULD I utilize 3D Printing in my supply chain? 2.for WHAT products? 3.WHEN should I do so? 4.and HOW? WHAT to 3D print? Material specifications Volume / demand Design complexity/maturity Product/part availability Cost: end-to-end Customization Supply system complexity Internal factors WHEN to 3D print? Yes External factors Materials availability and cost Size/speed/cost of 3D printers Service Bureau infrastructure Rights management/authenticity Organizational readiness, 37
