Discover manufacturers. Map Manufacturing capacity. Connect demand and capacity with 3DOS.

The 3DOS extension is a critical tool that uses internet for mapping manufacturing capacity globally. By mapping publicly available information on manufacturers and their production capabilities, the extension helps create the infrastructure for the world’s largest decentralized manufacturing network.

What It Does: The extension uses internet to organizes public information about manufacturing capacity, such as 3D printing resources and production locations. This public information is vital for connecting idle manufacturing capacity to global demand in a seamless, efficient, and sustainable way.

Why It Matters:

Supports the 3DOS Mission: It plays a foundational role in democratizing manufacturing and reducing waste by enabling on-demand, localized production.

Drives Efficiency: The public information gathered enhances AI training, improving routing, quality assurance, and capacity utilization across the 3DOS network.

Sustainability: By promoting local production, the extension helps reduce carbon emissions and overproduction.

Incentivizes Participation: Users contributing to the network are rewarded with $3DOS tokens, driving engagement and adoption.

This extension is not just a tool—it’s a key enabler for achieving 3DOS’s vision of a decentralized, community-driven, and efficient global manufacturing ecosystem. Installing and promoting its use is an important step toward building the infrastructure necessary for scaling this initiative.
