WHAT ARE 3D PRINTERS?
3D printing is when 3D solid objects are made from a model on a
computer. 3D printing is done by building up the object layer by layer.
Usually, 3D printers use plastic, because it is easier to use and cheaper.
Some 3D printers can 3D print with other materials, like metals and
ceramics.
In August, Chinese sports brand PEAK launched the world’s first pair of 3D printed
basketball boots. Developed in partnership with Charlotte Hornets star Dwight
Howard III, the boot deploys a 3D lattice structure in the middle of the sole, using a
3D printed TPU structure for the vamp side walls.

3D printing and 3D assembling
technology is being used by builders
to demonstrate the swift nature of
