Additive manufacturing or 3D printing is a process of making a three-dimensional (3D) objects from a CAD model. 3D printing is an additive process, where layers of material are laid down. 3D printing differs from traditional machining techniques, which generally rely on the removal of material by methods such as machining, cutting, drilling etc. The technology is currently used for both prototyping and manufacturing in especially:
Jewellery, footwear, industrial design, architecture, engineering, automotive, aerospace, dental and medical industries, education, geographic information systems, and many other field. Currently being used / researched to built titanium aircraft parts, human bones, complex, nano-scale machines.
