3-D PRINTING TECHNOLOGY

What is 3-D printing technology?

3-D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, is a process of creating three-dimensional objects from a digital design or model. The technology works by adding material layer by layer until the desired object is formed.

What are the steps involved in 3-D printing?

The 3-D printing process typically involves the following steps:

Creating a digital design or model using computer-aided design (CAD) software or 3-D scanning technology.

Preparing the design for printing using software that slices the digital model into thin layers and generates instructions for the printer. Printing the object using a 3-D printer, which adds successive layers of material based on the instructions generated by the software. Post-processing the object, which may involve cleaning, sanding, and finishing to improve its appearance and functionality.
