How It Works ยท Engineering
3D Printing
Layer-by-layer fabrication
3D printing follows sliced models, extruding or curing materials to form solid parts.
- additive manufacturing
- filament
- resin
- slicer
- layer height
Inputs
Digital 3D model sliced into layers; material such as filament or resin.
Process
Printer follows toolpaths per layer, depositing or curing material; layers fuse.
Outputs
Finished part requiring cooling or post-processing.
