Abstract: What is Additive manufacturing is
additive manufacturing? the construction of a 3D
object from a digital 3D
model. It can be done in a
variety of ways in which
material is deposited, joined
or solidified under computer
control, with material being
added together.
What is another name for additive manufacturing?

Additive Manufacturing is known as 3D Printing.

What are some Applications:

manufacturing and what 2.Medical implants(Dental, Orthopedic)

problems does additive 3. Sports & Lifestyle (Jewel, Bicycle)

manufacturing solve? Problems solved:

1.Faster prototyping

2.Low volume production (An item that has

been produced in small quantities)

3.Help companies accelerate the design

iteration and product validation processes to
get their products to market faster.
Advantages of additive Advantage:
manufacturing or so -It is easy to learn!
called 3D printing. -Reduce raw material wastage.
-Speed of prototyping to production
increases
-Lower energy and environmental
costs
-Lower start-up cost although
manufacturing start-up can be high
