Industrial scale use of 3D printers by SME for drone and bomb components.

The many small 3D printing “farms” that supply the components for improvised drone munitions for both sides in Ukraine are evolving.
More are migrating from basements of houses to small spaces in commercial buildings, which have the electrical power needed for expansion.

​​​​​​​Access to commercial-grade electrical capacity is also needed for adequate cooling, since higher temperatures and humidity in crowded printing rooms lead to interesting results.
