JAKARTA - Apple Inc., is testing 3D printers to make steel frames at several smartwatches to come. This was reported by Bloomberg News on Wednesday, August 30, citing people with knowledge of it.
This production technique will make the need to cut metal parts into product shapes obsolete, reduce the time required to create the device and also help the environment, according to the report.
This approach has the potential to simplify Apple's supply chain and if trials with Apple watches succeed, the company will look for ways to use this technology on more products in the coming years, the report added.
