3D Printing

The construction of a three-dimensional object from a CAD model or a digital 3D model is referred as 3D printing or additive manufacturing. The term "3D printing" can focus on a number of procedures in which material is deposited, combined, or solidified under computer control to create a three-dimensional object, often layer by layer. 3D printing techniques were considered only suitable for the production of functional or aesthetic prototypes, and rapid prototyping was a more appropriate term at the time. As of 2021, the most common 3D printing process is fused deposition modelling (FDM), which uses a continuous filament of a thermoplastic material.
