Директор ООО «Агентство Маркет Гайд» и издатель журнала «ЛОГИСТИКА» Юлия Кислова посетила форум «Международный день торговли – 2024», который прошел 7 ноября 2024 г. в Москве, в Торгово-промышленной палате Российской Федерации.

DB Schenker is the first logistics operator in the world that provides a wide range of 3D printing services to its customers. The order may be registered through the on-line platform e-Schenker. By means of this electronic resource, the client can choose the necessary materials, get an access to the price list, place the order and obtain ready- made products.
Analyst`s reports point at the fact that the volume of European 3D-printing market in 2018 approximately amounted to 4 billion dollars. However, there is no doubt that the tendency will not change and the upcoming years will register stable growth within the above-mentioned industry brunch. Finally, in 2020 the total volume of 3D-printing market is about to reach 5 billion dollars and in 2020 will go beyond 7 billion dollars.
The figures reflecting the development of the same market sector in Russia seem less impressive. Last year the total volume of 3D printing market has hardly exceeded 2 billion rubles. CEO of JSC Schenker, Aivars Taurins, states that additive manufacturing in western countries is way ahead of that in Russia. This state of affairs is determined by high prices for equipment that should be imported into Russia from abroad for manufacturing purposes. Nevertheless, Mr. Taurins believes that the industry has a window of opportunities as the demand on 3D-printing services has already exceeded the supply.
Nowadays the head office of DB Shenker in Germany suggests printing of automobile spare parts, stainless steel medical equipment, plastic finger-grippers for robots and packing materials for individual orders. Among the materials used in 3D printing are aluminum, stainless steel, plastic, titanium and other alloys.
3D printing technology guarantees relocating of goods manufacturing closer to the potential customers, thus, facilitating transportation processes. Amazon has already filed a number of patent applications, which will allow its customers to see that the goods they need are manufactured literally next door. Thanks to patented mobile production facilities, delivery-drivers will be able to manufacture goods right in the delivery vans. This scheme will significantly reduce the delivery time together with the demand on warehouse spaces. Aivars Taurins also made a remark that DB Schenker regards launching of 3D printing as an alternative to goods shipping. New technologies will create new advantages for our clients.
Nowadays DB Schenker has not launched 3D printing in Russia yet as the company does not possesses its own 3D printers. That is why it makes use of the resources provided by the European partners, however, the situation is about to change in the near future. If the company sticks to the plan, 3D manufacturing project will spread its roots on the Russian territory in 2019.
