3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, is a transformative technology that creates three-dimensional objects layer by layer from digital models using materials such as plastics, metals, resins, or ceramics. Unlike traditional subtractive manufacturing, which removes material to shape a product, 3D printing builds objects precisely and efficiently, allowing for complex geometries, customized designs, and rapid prototyping. This technology is widely used across industries including healthcare for prosthetics and implants, aerospace for lightweight components, automotive for functional prototypes, and consumer products for personalized items. With ongoing advancements in materials, speed, and multi-material printing, 3D printing continues to revolutionize manufacturing by reducing waste, shortening production cycles, and enabling innovative product designs.
