What is 3D Printing?
It is a process of joining materials to
make objects from 3D model data, usually layer upon layer, as opposed to
subtractive manufacturing methodologies.

Various types of 3D Printing.
There are various types of 3D Printing exits but following are the most popular among them.
- Selective Laser Sintering
- Stereolithography
- Fused Deposition Modelling
- Laminated Object Manufacturing
All are 3D printing techniques but they mainly differentiate from each other on the basis of material that has been used in it.
Selective laser sintering (SLS)
Stereolithography
Fused deposition modeling (FDM)
Laminated object manufacturing
Applications of 3D Printing?
Tooling and Patterns:
Rapid
Tooling /Injection
Mold Inserts Investment
Casting Patterns/Jigs
and Fixtures
Biomedical:
Scaffold Fabrication: Stereolithography has been used as a fabrication technique to
fabricate scaffold structures.
