<br>Additive manufacturing, aka 3D printing, is the process of producing 3-dimensional objects from a computer file, where the part is built by adding material layer-by-layer.<br><br>Today, more companies in a variety of industries are embracing the 3D printing process as it presents many significant advantages over the more traditional manufacturing methods of subtractive manufacturing and injection molding.

Benefits Of 3D Printing
Are you aware of the numerous advantages of technology? Follow along as we go over our top 6. 3D printing 1. SPEED Rapid prototyping is one of the most significant advantages of 3D printing technology. Rapid prototyping refers to the ability to design, build, and test a customised part in the shortest amount of Furthermore, if necessary, the design can be updated compromising process's pace. time possible. without production the
2. Cost 3D printing is the most cost-effective manufacturing process for small production runs and applications. Traditional prototyping processes, such as CNC machining and injection moulding, necessitate a large number of expensive machines, as well as significantly greater labour costs due to the need for expert machine operators and technicians to operate them.
3. FLEXIBILITY Another big benefit of 3D printing is the ability of any given printer to construct practically anything that fits within its build volume. With typical manufacturing techniques, each new part or change in part design necessitates the creation of a new tool, mould, die, or jig. In 3D printing, the design is fed into slicer software, necessary supports are added, and the manufactured with little or no change to the physical equipment. object is machinery or
4. COMPETITIVE Product life cycles are shorter due to the speed and cheaper cost of 3D printing. Businesses can improve and enhance a product allowing them to deliver better products in a shorter amount of time. It also enables low- cost market testing, feedback from potential customers and investors on a practical product without the risk of big upfront prototype costs. collecting
5. TANGIBLE DESIGN AND PRODUCT TESTING As previously stated in competitive advantages, viewing a product on a screen cannot match to touching and feeling a prototype. If faults are discovered in the physical prototype, the CAD file can be changed and a new version printed the next day. 6. QUALITY Traditional production procedures might lead to bad designs and, as a result, low quality prototypes
Consider baking a cake in which all of the components are combined and blended together before being placed in the oven to bake. If the ingredients were not fully combined, the cake would have difficulties such as air bubbles or fail to bake thoroughly. The same thing can happen with subtractive or injection procedures; quality isn't always guaranteed.
