2. 3D Printing
• 3D printing or Additive manufacturing is a process of
making three dimensional solid objects from a digital file.
• In an additive process an object is created by laying down
successive layers of material until the object is created. Each of
these layers can be seen as a thinly sliced horizontal cross-
section of the eventual object.

3. 3D Scanning
• 3D scanning digitally captures the shape of physical objects
using a line of laser light. 3D laser scanners create “point
clouds” of data from the surface of an object. In other words,
3D laser scanning is a way to capture a physical object’s exact
size and shape into the computer world as a digital 3-
dimensional representation.

5. 3D Modeling Softwares
3D modeling software also comes in many forms. There’s industrial grade
software that costs thousands a year per license, but also free open source
software.
• AutoDesk
• Blender
• SolidEdge
• AutoCad

6. Printing Material
• 3D Printers can use a wide range of materials, including Plastics, Resins,
Metals, Ceramics and more.
• The most popular material is plastic, and most of the home / desktop style
printers print objects using plastic, However some of the higher-end
printers are capable of printing using many different materials.

12. Advantages
• RAPID PROTOTYPING: 3D printing gives designers the ability to
quickly turn concepts into 3D models or prototypes.
• Clean process. Wastage of material is negligible.
• Complex shape can be produced.
• EASY TO USE No skilled person needed.
• Reduce design complexity.
• 3D printers are always getting cheaper and better.

13. Disadvantages
• Process is slow.
• Components do not have enough strength.
• Cost of raw materials.
• 3-D printers are still expensive.
• Misuse of technology
