• What is Additive Manufacturing and its uses?
Additive Manufacturing refers to a process by which
digital 3D design data is used to build up a component in
layers by depositing material. The term "3D printing" is
increasingly used as a synonym for Additive Manufacturing.
However, the latter is more accurate in that it describes
a professional production technique which is clearly
distinguished from conventional methods of material removal.

3. 3D printing Technology
• 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 entire object is created.
• A 3D printer is a type of industrial robot.

5. Stereolithography
• Stereolithography is an additive manufacturing process
that works by focusing an ultraviolet (UV) laser on to a vat of
photopolymer resin.

6. How does 3D printing work?
Step 1
• 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)
Step 2
• Once completed, the STL file needs to be processed by a piece
of software called a "slicer," which converts the model into a
series of thin layers and produces a G-code file.
Step 3
• This G-code file can then be printed with 3D printing
software

8. 3D Printing Benefits & Value
• Customization
3D printing processes allow for mass customization — the
ability to personalize products according to individual needs
and requirements.
• Complexity
it has also made a significant impact on industrial
applications, whereby applications are being developed to
materialize complex components that are proving to be both
lighter and stronger than their predecessors. Notable uses are
emerging in the aerospace sector where these issues are of
primary importance.

9. 3D Printing Benefits & Value
• Tool-less
For industrial manufacturing, one of the most cost-, time-
and labor-intensive stages of the product development
process is the production of the tools. For low to medium
volume applications, industrial 3D printing — or additive
manufacturing — can eliminate the need for tool production
and, therefore, the costs, lead times and labor associated
with it.

10. 3D Printing Benefits & Value
• Sustainable / Environmentally Friendly
3D printing is also emerging as an energy-efficient technology
that can provide environmental efficiencies in terms of both
the manufacturing process itself, utilizing up to 90% of
standard materials, and, therefore, creating less waste, but
also throughout an additively manufactured product’s
operating life, by way of lighter and stronger design that
imposes a reduced carbon footprint compared with
traditionally manufactured products.

11. 3D Printing Benefits & Value
• Build your Imagination
In the modern boom of digital art and design, the possibilities
are not only accelerating but limitless. One can now 3D print
almost anything they imagine after drawing it up virtually. In
a relatively short time, an idea, concept, dream or invention
can go from a simple thought to a produced part that you can
hold.
