As a Production Control Manager in the Aerospace industry, I have begun to see a focus shifting toward additive manufacturing over the past couple of years. Everyone is racing to develop their processes and supply chains first in order to be the industry leader.

We saw that same thing happen with CAD/CAM and Carbon Fiber. Aerospace was the first industry to research and develop these technology's which are now commonplace throughout many industries.

I believe additive manufacturing will follow in those footsteps. The government throws a lot of money into Aerospace and R&D projects that have the potential to save them money over time. additive technology with be a HUGE cost and time saver. The biggest problem with the widespread implementation of the technology has been QUALITY.

That is how I stumbled upon SGLB. In my search for the future solution to the quality issues that additive presents, I came across Gary Andersons article about Sigma Labs.

I immediately saw the huge potential and have been accumulating shares for a long while now.

I work for a company that has over 50 CNC milling and turning machines and every time I walk the floor and look around, I can't help but envision all of those machines replaced with 3D printers all containing Sigma Labs PrintRite3D technology.

......and that's just 1 of tens of thousands of aerospace companies. Now imagine the addition of medical, automotive, oil & gas and multiple consumer products.

I just can't help but smile when I imagine where we will be in 5-10 years. Sure 1-5 years will see a nice ROI, but the LONG term is life changing.
