Abstract:
A method for mobile three-dimensional (3-D) printing of a component of a machine is disclosed. The method includes determining a distance between a transport and a customer based on, at least, positioning information provided by a positioning system. The method further includes determining a route for the transport to travel to the customer based on, at least, the distance between the transport and the customer. The method further includes printing, at least in part, the component of the machine using a 3-D printer while the transport travels along the route, the 3-D printer being associated with the transport and travelling with the transport along the route.
