3D Printing
report
This Report shows how tools like artificial intelligence, digital twins, and on-demand manufacturing are no longer emerging concepts, but are already delivering measurable impact across the product lifecycle.
Glossary of 3D Printing Terms
Featured
Most traditional 3D printers create a shape by excreting a synthetic resin layer by layer, which is then hardened using UV light. Thanks to the abundance of scientific activity in this field, we have a number of resins and 3D printing methods to choose from.
Featured
Metal 3D printing can also be known as DMLS (Direct Metal Laser Sintering), and DMLM (Direct Metal Laser Melting) is an additive layer technology. A metal 3D printer uses a laser beam to melt 20-60 micron layers of metal powder on top of one another.
