This thesis explores the potential impact of 3D printers on the logistics industry, examining how this technology could reshape the industry and how logistics companies should respond to this advancement. The thesis seeks to understand the disruptive nature of 3D printing, analyze its implications for logistics, and present possible future scenarios for the industry.
The first chapter introduces the problem of shorter development times, increased product complexity, and the demand for individual products, highlighting the emergence of additive manufacturing processes, particularly 3D printing, as a solution. The chapter establishes the objective of the thesis, which is to analyze the influence of 3D printing on the logistics industry and propose future scenarios for the sector. The procedure outlines the structure of the thesis, detailing the content covered in each chapter.
Chapter two delves into additive manufacturing processes, focusing on 3D printing technology. It covers the definition and classification of the process, discusses the accessibility of 3D printing through FabLabs, and provides a detailed explanation of 3D printers, including their definition, development, operation, advantages, and current state of technology.
Chapter three introduces the theory of disruptive technology, exploring the concepts of characterization and classification, presenting Clayton Christensen's framework, and providing recommendations for dealing with disruptive technologies.
Chapter four examines the potential influence of 3D printers on the logistics industry, analyzing the current situation and perception of the technology in practice, exploring the reasons behind the hype surrounding 3D printing, and discussing the potential impact on logistics operations and critical considerations for the industry.
The core concepts and themes explored in this thesis include disruptive technology, additive manufacturing processes, 3D printing, logistics, supply chain management, warehousing, transportation, customer service, future scenarios, strategic planning, and industry adaptation.

Mir persönlich gefällt das Buch, da es viele Themen kurz anspricht, und auch versucht detailliert zu erklären. Ich habe es als Grundlage für meine Arbeit genutzt, damit viel Zeit gespart;)
