Re: Mauser
Dear Mauser, I share your opinion.
But there are risks as well.
For example; DDD and Stratasys are (for the moment) strong players in plastic printing.
Suppose a new company is born, a new proces, and prints 25 tot 100 times faster! (Carbon 3D)

When a part of your company is going out of business, you are putting more effort in the remaining parts.
Both companies are working hard to improve the metal printing division.

The other risks are new start-ups in metal printing.
For example:
Toshiba

Xjet
http://www.3ders.org/articles/20151109-xjet-to-develop-worlds-first-direct-3d-metal-printing-jetting-system.html

It is good to see Arcam is working hard on new improvements (with the help of the Swedish Goverment, universities, and the European Comunity)
