In favor of ecology and a sustainable future, or perhaps because the EU has become very serious with its demands to avoid planned obsolescence, the truth is that for some time now the different manufacturers in the technology industry have been announcing movements related to their social responsibility, the durability of their devices and also the ease that users have when it comes to carrying out repairs.
The latest company to move has been Motorola, which as published by the colleagues of TechBuzz, which has officially announced the signing of a partnership with Red Wolf Technology to use Primo Print3D systems and thus offer users and different repair shops a variety of original tools of the brand, which can be 3D printed at no additional cost, thus facilitating repair work.
It was the Lehi, Utah, company that proudly announced the agreement:
“We are very excited to partner with Motorola Mobility for this initiative. Digital manufacturing is making leaps and bounds, and we’re proud to be a leader and stay at the forefront of this movement. Our expertise in 3D printing, combined with Motorola Mobility’s cutting-edge approach, perfectly aligns us to revolutionize both the device repair industry and the 3D printing industry.” Brad Bacigalupi, founder and CEO of Red Wolf Technology.
Of course, Red Wolf Technology’s Primo Print3D system is a pioneer in on-demand additive manufacturing (AM), which has been used to date for 3D printing of mobile phone cases and accessories. Thanks to this agreement with Motorola, from now on it will also be used to produce genuine Motorola Mobility repair tools, in a collaboration that is unique in the industry at least for now.
Thus, users and professionals of electronic repair will be able to print their own tools at no additional cost, or also buy them online in a simple way to have access to OEM components that until now were exclusive to the official SATs.
Obviously, this will make repairs more flexible and make the work of external technicians more efficient, saving time and money on repair budgets and therefore indirectly supporting the durability of the device itself. An interesting move to avoid more electronic waste, extending the useful life of any gadget by making it easier to fix breakdowns.
We’ll see if more manufacturers join the initiative, but for now we must applaud both Motorola Mobility and Red Wolf Technology for a move that, yes, is interesting to improve the experience of repairing a device.
