Push-button manufacturing is a concept that simplifies the process of physically creating a part down to a single command. An engineer designs a part in every detail, specifies the material the part should be made from, and issues the order: “make the part.” Soon, their part, or product is delivered to spec.

While this concept is familiar to many people, given services like Amazon Now; Uber and Lyft’s car sharing services; and Postmates for food delivery, can engineers and manufacturers ever expect the same level of on-demand service?

In this research report we explore the types of on-demand manufacturing services that are currently available to engineers and what the future holds for engineers looking to innovate as quickly as possible.

In this research report, you’ll learn:

• About many on-demand manufacturing services that are currently available.
• The materials, performance and quality of the services that are currently available.
• What the future holds for on-demand manufacturing.
