In this interview, 3D Systems CEO Avi Reichental expounds on all the new industry hopefuls, as well as 3-D printing’s “holy grail.”

3D Systems (DDD -2.00%) had a huge presence at this year's 2014 International CES in Las Vegas, and it introduced 12 new products as well. These include the third-generation Cube 3-D printer, billed as the first sub-$1,000 plug-and-play printer for everyday use.

There's also the professional-level CubePro series of 3-D printers, the full-color desktop CubeJet, the CeraJet ceramic 3-D printer, and -- foodies rejoice! -- the edible sugar- and chocolate-making Chefjet and Chefjet Pro.

3-D Systems was a significant part of a massive 3-D printing "TechZone" at CES that saw some 30 other players vying for attention. This points to a huge push from the industry as it anticipates more demand on the consumer side.

Is 3D Systems president and CEO Avi Reichental worried about all of the new companies hoping to make an impact in the industry? Motley Fool analyst Rex Moore asked him that question at the 3D Systems booth on the CES exhibit floor. Find out more in the video below.
