THIRD INDUSTRY REVOLUTION 18 th century mechanization of textile industry 1st 20 th Century Henry Ford mastered the moving assembly line 2nd Manufacturing going digital through 3 D printers 3rd CILT International Conference 2012 – Age of Mass Production
3-D PRINTER Old way was taking lots parts and screwing or welding Now product can be designed on a computer and printed on a 3-D printer Designed with software and a cartridge with material in plastic, metal, ceramic Already high tech parts of military jets printed using 3-D printer University of Southern California – A giant 3-D printer CILT International Conference 2012 in fine powder or gel Lay down concrete foundation Put up walls Inserts wiring and plumbing Construct an entire building
Will Jobs go back to rich countries ? Will this not change the demand model of Shipping ? CILT International Conference 2012
CONCLUSION Importance of low cost labour in production will diminish. Gradual shift of low cost production from Asia to West. Like with Postal mails to s, 3-D printing will completely alter manufacturing Shipping Line – Ports have to re-assess development of capacity. Business models of Shipping Line will alter.
