So What Is 3D Printing ?
3D Printing, 3 Dimensional Printing is a complex process where printer usually performs 3D printing processes using digital technology. Since the start of the twenty-first century there has been a large growth in the sales of these machines, and their price has dropped substantially. You can buy 3D Printers online with a range starting from 400$ to 24000$, Here are some printer you can buy. 3D Printing is used in jewelry, footwear, industrial design, architecture, engineering and construction, automotive, aerospace, dental and medical industries, education, geographic information systems, civil engineering, and many other fields.To make a 3D object, computer-aided-designs are stored in a .stl file . The printer reads this file and lays down successive layers of liquid, powder, paper or sheet material to build the model from a series of cross sections. These layers, which correspond to the virtual cross sections from the CAD model, are joined together or automatically fused to create the final shape. The primary advantage of this technique is its ability to create almost any shape, which can later be joined to create an object.
