Manufacturing is one of the most important human inventions.
Manufacturing catalyzed human civilization's advancement by spurring economic growth and technological innovation, significantly enhancing economic freedom and lifting countless individuals out of poverty.
Billions of people around the world rely on manufactured products.
Millions of businesses use and pay for manufacturing capacity globally.
The $12T global manufacturing market is shifting to decentralized localized production.
Imagine a decentralized manufacturing network, where everyone get's equity in the network.
The 3DOS™ network allows anyone to access manufacturing capacity and 3D printers anywhere in the world, so products are made on-demand locally: Eliminate waste, inventory, and the carbon footprint associated with international shipping.
The founders invented one of the world's first 3D printing operating systems with over 290k+ users, 3.5M+ parts, 13M+ CAD designs, across 120+ countries with customers like John Deere, Google, MIT, Harvard, CalTech, Berkeley, Bosch, the British Army, US Navy, US Air Force, and NASA ready to onboard onto the 3DOS™ network.
3DOS™ aims to build the world's largest peer-to-peer manufacturing network, starting with 3D printing, allowing anyone to upload a design, receive royalties, and have it made anywhere in the world.
Let's Democratize Manufacturing Globally, For the People, By the People.
Traditional manufacturing processes grapple with inefficiencies, high operational costs, and limited accessibility for smaller enterprises. 3DOS addresses these challenges by providing a solution through a decentralized manufacturing network that leverages 3D printing technology. This approach aims to reduce costs, democratize manufacturing, and open up new economic opportunities globally.
Democratizing Go-To-Market: 3DOS enables individuals and businesses to bring products to market by connecting them directly with manufacturing capabilities, breaking down barriers to entry and democratizing access to the market.
On-Demand Production: By adopting a model where production is triggered by demand, 3DOS eliminates the need for traditional inventories, reducing waste, and allowing for more sustainable and cost-effective manufacturing practices.
Inclusive Manufacturing: The platform allows virtually anyone to participate in manufacturing, promoting inclusivity and empowering a diverse range of creators, innovators, and entrepreneurs.
Resource Efficiency: 3DOS optimizes resource utilization by producing goods only when there's demand, contributing to a more efficient and environmentally friendly manufacturing ecosystem.
Supply Chain Transparency: 3DOS utilizes blockchain to enhance transparency in the manufacturing supply chain, reducing the risk of fraud and ensuring traceability of products from raw materials to end-users.
Decentralization of Manufacturing: By leveraging blockchain, 3DOS aims to decentralize manufacturing processes, allowing for more equitable participation, efficient resource utilization, and reducing dependence on centralized manufacturing facilities.
Quality Assurance: The platform addresses quality control issues by implementing smart contracts and immutable records on the blockchain, ensuring the authenticity and quality of manufactured goods.
Global Collaboration: 3DOS facilitates global collaboration by creating a decentralized network, fostering partnerships and collaborations between manufacturers worldwide, potentially reducing geopolitical barriers and increasing innovation in the manufacturing sector.
There are millions of 3D printers and manufacturing capacity sitting on idle that are underutilized.
The design of the 3DOS™ Network helps to address all these problems.
"Let's connect the most people to the most manufacturing machines with the lowest latency!"
3DOS™ aims to connect the most people to the most manufacturing machines with the lowest latency, starting with building the world’s largest 3d printing network and then expanding to other manufacturing methods.
Consumers: Get your favorite products instantly made locally globally anywhere in over 120 countries.
The 3DOS™ Network is designed from the ground up to be:
Permissionless - Anybody, anywhere can contribute to the 3DOS™ or utilize manufacturing capacity, as long as they adhere to basic rules. They do not need permission to do so.
Rewards-based - Contributors to the global map receive 3DOS™, 3DOS's token, which allows them to share the economic benefits of decentralized manufacturing.
Thank you for being a part of the future of manufacturing. Let's do this!
to get started using the network.
when you 3D print.
is pre-revenue and preparing to launch!
Everyone can to the 3DOS™ Network.
Manufacturers: and manufacturing machines and earn 3DOS tokens as you manufacturer, on-time, to-quality, for youself or others.
Creators: , and instantly go to market globally, earn royalities, as it's manufactured
Decentralized - This helps the 3DOS™ to remain fair and open. Along with engaged members of the community, the will help maintain the and support an open-source ecosystem, including releasing source code and materials for hardware and software projects.
