The internet of things shows its danger when an Australian teenager printed a fully working semi-automatic assault rifle by using a 3D printer that is bought from the shop. That assault rifle is made of plastic. That thing makes it extremely dangerous because those guns can pass the regular security check of airports.
The 3D printer can make it possible to turn any CAD image into physical merchandise. This thing is the new type of CAD/CAM (Computer-Aided Design/Computer-Aided Manufacturing) robot. The 3D printer systems are more flexible than regular robots.
In a 3D printer system, the system turns plastic or metal wires into any merchandise. And that means there are no non-necessary parts onboard. This makes 3D printers suitable for supporting spaceflight. In that case, there are no spare parts that are not needed on board.
Things like plastic and carbon fiber can make it possible to make stealth arms. Those weapons cannot detect by using regular metal detectors. In the case of plastic, the quality of those guns is poor. But the working gun is always deadly.
Carbon fiber can be tougher than steel. And carbon fibers are the things that can use to make a gun that has high quality and what is invisible to metal detectors.
In the case of crimes, the working gun is enough for criminal actions. And the criminals might destroy their guns after use anyway. The 3D printers can handle carbon fiber or make metal parts that make it possible to create more high-quality weapons. The thing that makes metal-printed weapons poor is the gas bubbles in the structure.
And if the printer operates in a vacuum. That thing solves the problem of quality. So these kinds of things are making the 3D printer technology dangerous. The next-generation weapon dealers can simply use 3D printers to make the firearms for their customers. And people like the South-American narcotics mafia might be the potential customers for that kind of stuff.
The 3D printer technology is a bad thing in the wrong hands. There are suspicions that those systems are used also for making the illegal pirate spare parts for machines. Also, pirate scissors and other kinds of things are possible to create by using 3D printers.
