Is 3D printing ready for full-scale production?

Additive manufacturing is no longer just for prototyping — it’s powering real, scalable manufacturing. Lyndsey Vickers of MTDCNC sits down at Midlands 3D’s Open House with Paul Moloney of Midlands 3D and Joe Bellis and Jon Porter of Matsuura to unpack how additive is shifting from niche to necessity across the manufacturing landscape. This podcast explores the tipping point of the past 18 months: shifting from single parts to hundreds, how trust in the tech is rising, and why Midlands 3D’s clean, modern facility proves they’re playing in the big leagues. Whether you’re a buyer, supplier, or user — this is a must-watch conversation about the future of 3D printing, automation, and production-ready capability.
