Industrial 3D printing – an unequal battle with desktop printers

In the FDM / FFF technology there is a belief that anyone who can print anything more than PLA, can be treated as a solution for the engineer and industry. What is professional, industrial 3D printing? Where is the line that mark a border between the printers for amateurs, semi-professional and the industry printers for engineers and production? Why, despite many years of existence of 3D printing, the knowledge related to it, is not common? I will try to define the line between, explain the aspects, both technological and usable that is associated with professional 3D printing.
