3d printing.,uses application. It all starts with making a virtual design of the object you want to create. This virtual design is made in a CAD(Computer Aided Design) file using a 3D modeling program (for the creation of a new object) or with the use of a 3D scanner (to copy an existing object). A 3D scanner makes a 3D digital copy of an object.3d scanners use different technologies to generate a 3d model such as time-of-flight, structured/modulated light, volumetric scanning, and many more. [1] models will become as easy as taking a picture. Prices of 3d scanners range from very expensive professional industrial devices to 30 USD DIY devices anyone can make at home.

3. It all starts with making a virtual design of the object you
want to create.
This virtual design is made in a CAD(Computer Aided Design) file
using a 3D modeling program (for the creation of a totally new
object) or with the use of a 3D scanner (to copy an existing object).
A 3D scanner makes a 3D digital copy of an object. [1]

4. 3d scanners use different technologies to generate a 3d
model such as time-of-flight, structured / modulated light,
volumetric scanning and many more. [1]
models will become as easy as taking a picture. Prices of 3d
scanners range from very expensive professional industrial
devices to 30 USD DIY devices anyone can make at home.

5. To prepare a digital file for printing, the 3D modeling
software “slices” the final model into hundreds or thousands of
horizontal layers
When the sliced file is uploaded in a 3D printer, the object can be
created layer by layer.
The 3D printer reads every slice (or 2D image) and creates the
object, blending each layer with hardly any visible sign of
the layers, with as a result the three dimensional object

6. Three-dimensional (3D) printing is one of the most effective
techniques for developing 3D objects by deposition of source
materials, such as polymers or ceramics, in a layered manner.1

7. It is also referred to as rapid prototyping (RP), solid free-
form technology (SFF), or additive manufacturing (AM).2,3
In 1981Dr. Hideo Kodama invented the rapid prototyping
machine that could polymerize resin using ultraviolet (UV)
light and fabricate parts layer-by-layer.4

8. Chuck Hull, the “inventor of 3D printing”, filed the first patent
for stereolithography in 1986.5
He created and commercialized selective laser sintering (SLS)
and the .stl format (the general file type for 3D printing).
SLS, a different type of 3D printer, was first licensed by a
student atthe University of Texas, Carl Deckard, in 1988.6 In
1989, fuseddeposition modeling (FDM) was patented by Scott
Crump.

41. Electrospinning is a method to produce
ultrafine (in nanometers) fibres by charging
and ejecting a polymer melt or solution
through a spinneret under a high-voltage
electric field and to solidify or coagulate it to
form a filament
