Tänapäevastelt elektrimasinatelt nõutakse, et nad oleksid võimalikult energiaefektiivsed, mugavalt süsteemiga integreeritavad ning väikesed, sobimaks mobiilsetes seadmetes kasutamiseks. See on tekitanud vajaduse elektrimasinate arenduses otsida uusi ja võimalikult soodsaid tootmisvõimalusi. 3D-printerite turule tulek on andnud võimaluse innovaatiliste väikeseeriatoodete arenguks. Tänu lühematele tarneahelatele ja kiiremale väljatöötamisajale on võimalik 3D-printimise abil kiirelt ja odavalt toota prototüüpseadmeid. Tegemist on suhteliselt uue tehnoloogiaga, mis võimaldab otseste tööriistadeta toota seadmete komponente või terveid koosteid otse CAD- (Computer-aided design – toim) failist. Praegu ei ole see lähenemine tööstuslikult eriti laialdaselt kasutusel, kuid on muutumas üha populaarsemaks. See on ka viinud vajaduseni töötada välja sellised elektrimasinate lahendused, mille tootmiseks oleks otstarbekas kasutada 3D-printerit.
