Short supply is always a challenge, and the demand gap is even larger for the reason that safety goggles with small output, difficult in expanding production and long production cycle by traditional craft. The R&D team of this enterprise used 3D printing technology to design, develop and finalize the product within 153 hours, and finally realized the mass production of 3D printed safety goggles. It is reported that the 3D printing safety goggles are lighter and easier to wear, and they are better sealed and protected from fog for a long time.

The head of the company said, "3D printed safety glasses have a shorter design cycle, and volume of production of 3D printing technology is more scalable than traditional ways."

As a professional safeguard instrument manufacturing enterprise, they made multiple comparison in the selection of equipment. Large printing volume, long-term printing stability and high accuracy are the most concerned features. After comparing many 3D printing brands, they finally chose Flashforge Guider2. At present, 200 Flashforge Guider2 have been put into production. It is really spectacular that hundreds of printers start to work at the same time.

Before publishing time, more than 5000 pairs of 3D printed safety goggles had been sent to the hospitals through donations. Now the company believed that the increased capacity will relieve the pressure of safety goggles shortage. In the future, the enterprise will further expand the capacity according to the needs, at that time, the daily output of goggles can be 10,000 pairs.

Kinaxis-Sponsored Study Identifies Supply Chain AI Accountability Gap Amidst Rapid Adoption Expectations11.8.2026 14:07:00 CEST | Press release

Trust, measurable outcomes, and governance lag, even as 41% expect autonomous-at-scale operations within two years Kinaxis® (TSX:KXS), a global leader in supply chain orchestration, today announced the findings of new independent research from IDC. The IDC InfoBrief, sponsored by Kinaxis, “Making Supply Chain AI Accountable,” reveals a growing chasm between organizations’ aggressive ambitions for autonomous AI adoption and their readiness to hold these advanced systems - which we believe underscores the need for a disciplined approach to AI investment and deployment to prevent costly failures and deliver measurable business value.

As AI reshapes the enterprise at unprecedented speed, a new risk is emerging: transformation could be outpacing the instincts of the leaders tasked with overseeing it. "Confidence in AI without control over data quality is a liability, not a strategy. CFOs need platforms that connect AI to trusted, auditable data so every output
