A systematic analysis of 3D printing technology community

3D printing technology is a great innovation in contemporary human society. It is the representative of the third industrial technology innovation of human technology revolution. It is a major technological innovation achievement by using multidisciplinary fusing innovation and multi field technology integration to gain. Based on the system views and the ecological system thought, it analyzes the 3D printing technology community composition which would be better understand the innovative mechanism and the innovative rules of 3D printing technology. A general framework of 3D printing technology community is given, and the structure of the material forming process (manufacturing process) and other related five aspects are analyzed.
