3D Printing and Addictive Manufacturing

Charles Hull is the inventor of stereo lithography, the first commercial rapid prototyping technology commonly known as 3D printing

3D printing or additive manufacturing is a process of making 3 dimensional solid objects from a digital file. The formation of a 3D printed thing is completed using additive processes. In an additive process an object is created by laying down sequent layers of material until the object is generate.. The additive manufacturing process that creates a physical object from a digital design

The term “additive manufacturing” refers to the creation of objects by “adding” material. Therefore, 3D printing is a form of additive manufacturing Additive manufacturing (AM) or additive layer manufacturing (ALM) is the industrial production name for 3D printing, a computer controlled process that makes three dimensional objects by putting materials, usually in layers.

Firstly For, medicine purpose 3D Printing is used first.. it implants and custom prosthetics in the year of 1990s. 

They are 3 types of 3D printing:

  • Stereo lithography (SLA) 
  • Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) 
  • Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM)
