6. FUSED DEPOSITION MODELLING
Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) is
a 3D printing/additive manufacturing
technology used for modeling,
prototyping, and production
applications.
This makes it perfect for demanding
designers and engineers in
aerospace, medical, electrical,
consumer goods, and other
industries.
7. POLYJET 3D PRINTING TECHNOLOGY
PolyJet is a powerful 3D printing technology that
produces smooth, accurate parts, prototypes and
tooling.
Benefits of PolyJet:
Produce accurate molds(containers), jigs, fixtures
and other manufacturing tools.
Achieve complex shapes, intricate details and
delicate features.
Incorporate the widest variety of colors and
materials into a single model for unbeatable
efficiency.
9. Designers use 3D printers to quickly create product
models and prototypes.
INDUSTRIAL DESIGN
10. Automotive and aviation industries use 3D printers to
make body parts.
Urbee the first prototype car 2011 was presented. This is
the first car ever to have its entire body printed out on
giant 3D printer.
It has three wheels, and two seats.
AUTOMOTIVE AND AVIATION
INDUSTRIES
11. Artists can create models of their projects.
ARCHITECTURE
12. In food preparation, to apply items in liquid or paste
form such as cheese, icing, and chocolate.
FOOD PREPARATION
14. Liberator
Defense Distributed successfully test
fired the world's first 3D-printed
handgun named Liberator.
All 16 parts of the gun are made from
a tough, heat-resistant plastic used in
products such as musical instruments,
kitchen appliances and vehicle
bumper bars. Fifteen of those are
made with a 3D printer while one is a
non-functional metal part which can be
picked up by metal detectors, making
it is legal under U.S. law. The firing pin
is also not made of plastic, though it is
easily crafted from a metal nail.

& Space
15. RAPID PROTOTYPING: 3D printing gives designers the ability to quickly turn concepts
into 3D models or prototypes (a.k.a., rapid prototyping).
Clean process. Wastage of material is negligible.
Complex shape can be produced .
EASY TO USE No skilled person needed.
REDUCE DESIGN COMPLEXITY
CHEAP Cheaper process than any other process.
People in remote locations can fabricate objects that would otherwise be inaccessible to
them.
ADVANTAGES
16. Process is slow
Components do not have enough strength.
COST OF RAW MATERIALS
3-D printers are still expensive.
Misuse of technology
Although 3-D printers have the potential of creating
many jobs and opportunities, they might also put
certain jobs at risk .
(for example, you can make your toys at home so toy
and toy makers might go out of business).
DISADVANTAGES
17. With the advancement in medical imaging and
additional software’s, surgical guides can now
be prepared by the direct utilization of the CT
data followed by 3D surgical templates that
place an implant at
the planned position and the depth
prior to surgery. This improves the
safety and predictability

19. Sculpture called “Jhada” was installed at Mumbai’s Airport, 8-feet high and 6 feet wide
structure.
