This is phenomenal, I would highly recommend people to watch this.
Philips have officially announced that they will be releasing publicly any 3d print designs they have for interchangeable components on their products, so you can just log into your Phillips account, find the part you need, download the print file and load it directly into the printer, or send the file to a 3rd party 3d print service for them to do it if you don’t have the hardware.
THIS IS HUGE! And I sincerely hope this pays dividends for Philips, I also hope others take good note as if this becomes more widely supported, it could kick start 3d printers from something still quite niche and fairly technical process (although I’m sure it’s moved on a long way since I played about with it back in 2014) to a solution found in most homes just like a standard printer.
This is exactly what 3d printing was intended for.
Im quite amazed that it’s someone as large as Philips that has done this so publicly. They aren’t the first by any means but certainly the first of the big boys. Framework who make modular laptops do this kind of thing, there’s a huge community that they’ve really pushed to get rooted that comes up with new designs for framework parts and improvements and framework really take note of the community and often will put their ideas into production.
THIS is the kind of world I want to be a part of!
