Last year in the US, they helped Amazon prepare and ship all the products required for Cyber Monday,

the annual peak of online retail.

Last year in the US, it was the biggest online shopping day of the year and of history.
那是去年在美国的,有史以来最大的线上购物日。
Consumers spent 3 billion dollars on electronics that day.
消费者那天在网络上共支出30亿美元。
That's real economic growth.
那是实实在在的经济增长。
Then there's additive manufacturing, 3D printing.
此外,还有积层制造,即3D打印技术。
3D printing has already improved plastic manufacturing and it's now making its way through metal.
3D打印已经提升了塑料制造行业。目前它正向钢铁行业进发。
Those are not small industries.
它们可不是小型行业。

下一次工业革命就在眼前

Plastic and metals represent 25 percent of global manufacturing production.

塑料和钢铁占全球制造业生产的25%
Let's take a real example.
让我们看一个具体例子。
In the aerospace industry, fuel nozzles are some of the most complex parts to manufacture, for one reason:
在航空航天产业,燃油喷嘴是最难生产的部件之一,就因为一个原因:
they are made up of 20 different parts that need to be separately produced and then painstakingly assembled.
它由20种不同部件组成,并且它们需要独立生产,组装过程也极其复杂。
Aerospace companies are now using 3D printing,
航空公司现在正在采用3D打印技术,
which allows them to turn those 20 different parts into just one. The results?
这类技术可以让它们从需要生产20种不同部件,变为只生产一种。结果呢?
40 percent more productivity, 40 percent more output produced, 40 percent more growth for this specific industry.
生产力提高了百分之四十,产量提高了百分之四十,经济增长加快了百分之四十,仅仅就在这一特定的领域。
But actually, the most exciting part of this new manufacturing revolution goes much beyond productivity.
但事实上,这次新工业革命最激动人心的地方远不止生产率的提高。
It's about producing better, smarter products. It's about scale customization.
还有生产质量更优、更为精细的产品,还有批量定制。
