Additive Manufacturing (AM) is a process of creating three-dimensional objects by sequentially adding material based on digital models.
Additive Manufacturing, commonly known as 3D printing, involves layer-by-layer construction of a 3D object from a digital file. This process is used extensively to produce complex geometries and custom parts with a wide range of materials such as polymers, metals, and ceramics. It is significant in prototyping, reducing the lead time and wastage associated with traditional subtractive methods.
Manufacturing a titanium aerospace component with a weight of 250 grams using selective laser melting method.
Used in the aerospace industry to produce lightweight and strong parts due to the precision of layer placement and material efficiency.
Producing patient-specific dental crowns using stereolithography with a layer thickness of 50 micrometers.
Commonly applied in dental labs to create custom dental products tailored to patient specifications, enhancing fit and comfort.
