3D printing allows for the creation of objects from 3D model data through an additive process in which successive layers of material are laid down. It was invented in the 1980s and has since expanded to include various technologies and a wide range of materials. 3D printing provides benefits such as flexible designs, cost effectiveness, reduced material waste, and on-demand production. However, it also faces challenges including high equipment and material costs, intellectual property issues, and a lack of standardization and regulation. The global 3D printing market is large and growing rapidly. While still developing, 3D printing is used in Nepal for applications such as prototypes, medical devices, and educational models. Its various technologies can be applied across industries such as aer
