3D PRINTING

3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, is a process of creating three-dimensional objects from a digital design by layering material on top of each other. It contrasts with traditional subtractive manufacturing methods, where material is removed to create a shape. In 3D printing, the object is built layer by layer, which allows for intricate and complex geometries that may be challenging or impossible to produce using other methods.

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

Specialized software takes the digital model and slices it into thin horizontal layers. This slicing information is then sent to the 3D printer

The 3D printer follows the slicing instructions, adding material layer by layer. The material can be plastic, metal, resin, ceramics, or even food, depending on the printer and application.

After printing, the object may require post-processing, such as curing, polishing, painting, or assembling multiple parts.

3D printing is constantly evolving, offering new possibilities and challenges as the technology advances. It has the potential to revolutionize manufacturing, customization, and innovation across many industries.
