Frequently Asked Questions:


What exactly are 3D Printing and Additive Manufacturing?

3D Printing, also known as Additive Manufacturing (AM), is the process of creating tangible objects from digital 3D models. By utilizing data, materials are deposited, fused, jetted, or bound in layers to construct the desired object. To better grasp this concept, compare it to subtractive manufacturing, where a solid material block is gradually carved away to achieve the intended shape. In contrast, AM begins with a blank slate, progressively adding materials until the final form emerges.


How do Home and Industrial 3D Printing Differ, and What Secrets Await in the World of Industrial 3D Printing?

Over the past decade, home-based, consumer-level desktop 3D Printing has experienced a surge in popularity. This includes Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) and, more recently, Stereolithography (SLA) 3D Printing, which are commonly found in schools, community centers, and households.

Though these technologies have gained attention, they only scratch the surface of the expansive 3D Printing universe, which is largely dominated by industrial and advanced applications. Industrial 3D Printing delves into realms of metal and colored 3D Printing, as well as large-scale printing and an impressive array of materials and properties.

The true value and potential of 3D Printing reside within the industrial sector. Fortunately, numerous print-on-demand services grant us access to these cutting-edge, industrial-grade 3D Printing technologies, unlocking a treasure trove of endless possibilities.
