“…On the other hand, a strategy to speed up the large-scale production of 3D printed dosage forms has been discussed based on 3D printer farms. This strategy combines the use of many 3D printers in the same room, producing the same product with control of the production [188]. On the other hand, the on-demand manufacture of pharmaceuticals at pharmacies, hospitals and health services still needs many discussion rounds regarding some ethical, stability and quality control concerns [189,190].…”

3D printing has been widely used for the personalization of therapies and on-demand production of complex pharmaceutical forms. Recently, 3D printing has been explored as a tool for the development of topical dosage forms and wound dressings. Thus, this review aims to present advances related to the use of 3D printing for the development of pharmaceutical and biomedical products for topical skin applications, covering plain dressing and products for the delivery of active ingredients to the skin. Based on the data acquired, the important growth in the number of publications over the last years confirms its interest. The semisolid extrusion technique has been the most reported one, probably because it allows the use of a broad range of polymers, creating the most diverse therapeutic approaches. 3D printing has been an excellent field for customizing dressings, according to individual needs. Studies discussed here imply the use of metals, nanoparticles, drugs, natural compounds and proteins and peptides for the treatment of wound healing, acne, pain relief, and anti-wrinkle, among others. The confluence of 3D printing and topical applications has undeniable advantages, and we would like to encourage the research groups to explore this field to improve the patient’s life quality, adherence and treatment efficacy.

“…However, a service bureau may utilise one or more build farms within its production facility, farming out low-volume runs of a part to a collection of 3D printers controlled centrally, or managing the production of unique parts. While research shows that it is more challenging to automate the production of unique parts within a build farm due to the need to optimise factors like build orientation for each different part individually, academic research is working towards automated solutions in experimental and lab conditions (Gushchin, Martynovich & Torubarov, 2020;Ransikarbum et al, 2017). The evidence from companies like Prusa Printers (Průša, 2018), Formlabs (Formlabs, 2017) and Zortrax (Krywko, 2018) is that there is a business case supporting 3D print farms for low volume production today and that a build farm can be successfully located within a service bureau.…”

Anywhere Working and the Future of Work

The development of high-end, distributed, advanced manufacturing over the last decade has been a by-product of a push to foster new workforce capabilities, while building a market for industrial additive manufacturing (3D printing) machines. This trend has been complemented by a growing democratization in access to commercial platforms via the internet, and the ease of communication it allows between consumers and producers. New ways of distributed working in manufacturing are on the rise while mass production facilities in the Western world are in decline. As automation increasingly excludes the worker from assembly line production, the tools to regain control over manufacturing and commercial interaction are becoming more readily available. As a result, new working practices are emerging. This chapter discusses networked 3D printing build farms and their potential to reshape the future of work for distributed manufacturing. It highlights changes in infrastructure priorities and education for a digitally enabled maker society from an Australian perspective.
