3D PRINTING
3D Printing or 3-Dimensional Printing is a technology which was first developed at MIT
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology) in the 1980's. It is the process of making a physical
object from a three-dimensional physical model. In this technology, we use the 3D digital data
on the computer to build 3D objects by adding layers of material which could be polymers,
metals, concrete or even plant and human tissue. 3D Printing helps to bridge the gap between
ideas and images on a page or screen and the creation of those ideas/images in the physical
3-Dimensional world.
