Perhaps by the end of next year, the company will offer anyone a full cycle of the press. The system manufacturer’s composed of thousands of devices capable of producing similar articles of metal somewhere in twenty times is cheaper, and fifty times faster than do traditional factories on conventional machines. For the production of Porsche and Microsoft Surface or, for example, manufactured by Siemens new wind turbines this can be a tremendous advantage.
