Despite rising interest in such 3D printers, the ORNL team has criticized their complex setups, which they say are a “Barrier to their commercial implementation.” The engineers also suggest that current printed structures aren’t as “Aesthetically pleasing” as those made from other facade materials, and they can require lengthy reinforcing, thus an “Improved large-scale, fieldable” system is needed.

What we were doing was working on projects that delivered more value to Australia by extracting value out of that titanium supply chain, so thinking about how can we make titanium metal differently so that it’s cheaper, lower cost, easier because titanium, by the way, is a pain to work with.
