3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, is a process that converts digital files into physical 3D objects by printing layer upon layer of material. The document discusses the history of 3D printing, how it works, different types of 3D printers and materials used, applications, challenges, and future possibilities, such as printing replacement organs. The emerging technology has the potential to transform manufacturing by allowing individuals to manufacture products themselves and significantly reducing development cycles for companies.

3. What is 3D printing?
 3D printing or additive manufacturing is a
process of converting 3 dimensional solid
physical objects from a digital file.
 3D Printers are machines that produce
physical 3D models from digital data by
printing layer by layer.

4. HISTORY OF 3D PRINTING
1984
Charles (Chuck) Hull of 3D Systems Corp. developed the first
3D printer and named the technique as Stereo lithography
and obtained patent in 1986.
Later 1990’s
Other Companies developed 3d printer’s.
2005
Z Corp launched first high definition color 3D printer.

5. How it works ?
 A virtual design of the object is
created.
 C.A.D.(Computer Aided Design)
uses a 3D modeling program or 3D
scanner for virtual design.
 The software slices the final model
into hundreds or thousands of
horizontal layers.
 The printer creates the object layer
by layer, resulting in one three
dimensional object.

16. FUTURE
 With today's 3D printers, if you lose your TV remote's battery cover
you can print a replacement battery cover. With tomorrow's, if you
lose your remote, you'll be able to print a new remote.
 3D printers are always getting cheaper and better.
 There is currently research going on to successfully use 3D printers
that could print out organs for people in need of a transplant.
 Within a decade, 3D printers will become commonplace in houses.
The benefits of such technology are endless…….

17. Conclusions
 Relatively new expanding technology
 New Industry in which everyone has a possibility of being a
manufacturer
 Significant decrease in New product development cycle
 Proven to optimize companies Time, Man Power & Money
 likely to play some part in all of our future.
