Broadcast in December 2012 The arrival of 3D printers, which have overturned conventional wisdom about printing and made three-dimensional printing possible, is bringing about revolutionary changes in various fields. In the field of manufacturing, 3D printers are creating new products that could not be made using conventional methods, and are creating an era in which anyone can become a producer with just an idea, even without huge capital. In the medical field, artificial "bones" and "heart valves" made using 3D printers have made new medical treatments possible, and research is also being conducted to print "artificial organs" with complex structures.
