By:Mia

TapTechNews on June 17, analyst Ming-Chi Kuo pointed out today that the screen size of the Apple Watch Series 10 will become larger and the thickness thinner. Apple Watch will start to use the structural parts produced by 3D printing technology from the second half of this year.

Ming-Chi Kuo said that although there was no mass production at the end of last year, after more than one year of intensive testing, the production efficiency of 3D printing has been significantly improved at present. The supplier of 3D printed structural parts is BLT. Different from before, BLT was the equipment supplier last year, and this year it is the structural parts producer. Due to the cost advantage of 3D printing, Ming-Chi Kuo expects that the shipment of BLT's 3D printed structural parts will continue to grow in the next few years, and there is a chance to make the Apple Watch case.

TapTechNews attached Ming-Chi Kuo's original text as follows:

Series 10 will have an appearance upgrade, including a larger screen size (upgraded from 45mm/41mm to about 49mm/45mm) and becoming thinner.

The specification of the Apple Watch Ultra model has no significant change. If the production yield can meet the expected, then there may be a new case color option (black/dark).

Apple Watch will begin to use the structural parts produced by 3D printing technology from 2H24. Although there was no mass production at the end of last year, after more than one year of intensive testing, the production efficiency of 3D printing has been significantly improved at present.

Due to the cost advantage of 3D printing, it is expected that the shipment of BLT's 3D printed structural parts will continue to grow in the next few years, and there is a chance to make the Apple Watch case (because the difficulty is lower than that of the cases of other Apple products).
