3D printing is a process that creates 3D objects layer by layer from a digital model by adding material rather than subtracting it. It has evolved from its origins in the 1960s to be used in industries like medicine, engineering, and construction. While it provides opportunities, 3D printing also faces challenges like speed and new ethical issues.

3D PRINTING

1. 3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, is a process of creating three-


dimensional objects layer by layer from a digital model. Unlike traditional
manufacturing methods that involve subtracting material (such as machining or
carving), 3D printing adds material layer by layer until the nal object is formed.

HISTORY

1. for the rst time in history, the concept of 3D modeling appeared in the 1960s and 1970s

2. In 1984, Charles Hull created the stereolithography process and founded 3D Systems,
which released the rst commercially available 3D printer - SLA—1 in 1987.

3. (1990 - 2000) During this period, 3D printing technologies began to spread more
widely. Companies such as Stratasys and EOS have contributed to the development of
fused material deposition (FDM) and selective laser sintering (SLS) technologies.

4. In 2005 Dr. Adrian Bowen and his team presented RepRap (Replicating Rapid
Prototyper), the rst open source 3D printer that could replicate itself. This has become an
important milestone for self-replicating 3D printers and after that, the technologies
developed and went further in this industry

WHERE WE USE IT

1. MEDICINE - In the medical industry, 3D printing is used to create individual implants,


prostheses and models of organs for training and to create bio-printable tissues and
organs, research cell biology and conduct medical experiments.

2. In these industries, 3D printing is used to manufacture lightweight and durable parts,


optimize structures and improve production [Link] example, as small models
of new samples or small parts for the construction of machines.

3. In construction, 3D printing is used to create elements of building structures,


prototyping architectural designs.

MINUSES

1. With the development of 3D printing, new ethical and legal issues arise, such as the
possibility of creating weapons, forgeries, or other potentially harmful objects.

2. Spend a lot of time and [Link] 8 or 12 hours,sometimes maybe days or


[Link] on item which made

CONCLUSION

In conclusion, it can be noted that 3D printing, which began as a


concept, has become an important tool in various industries.
Despite challenges such as speed and materials, technology
continues to evolve, providing unique opportunities for creativity and
individualization. 3D printing leaves its mark on manufacturing and
design, shaping an innovative and sustainable future.
