You are likely to see 3D printers in makerspaces, design studios, and even in school classrooms. One day, your child might come home asking for … Read more
Additive Manufacturing (AM) refers to the process of creating parts or objects based on three-dimensional model data through material accumulation. 3D printing is the process of creating parts or objects through material accumulation using a print head, nozzle, or other printing technologies; this term is often used synonymously with additive manufacturing, hence it is also … Read more
3D printing—an innovative manufacturing technology—has permeated more complex and refined fields from its initial applications in manufacturing, such as the production of plastic, metal, and other materials, including biomedicine. This “additive manufacturing” method of 3D printing can layer by layer print any biological tissue or organ required for tissue engineering. Among various 3D printing technologies, … Read more
Antarctic Bear Guide:This issue will briefly summarize some mainstream 3D printing processes and focus on introducing some non-mainstream 3D printing technologies.Additive Manufacturing (AM) refers to the process of manufacturing parts or objects based on three-dimensional model data through material accumulation. 3D printing refers to the process of manufacturing parts or objects through material accumulation using … Read more
Welcome to submit articles to: [email protected]. 3D printing technology is a production method that can print everything from shoes to jewelry, firearms, and aerospace components through computer control. The basic rule is to use a stacking additive manufacturing technology, unlike machining, turning, milling, and sawing, which cut away unwanted parts and retain the necessary ones. … Read more
What is 3D Printing Technology 3D printing, in English, is referred to as Three-Dimensional printing. This technology is a rapid prototyping process that uses techniques such as photopolymerization and paper layering to manufacture components and structures. It operates similarly to the conventional printers we are familiar with; however, traditional printing is a two-dimensional (flat) printing … Read more
