3D printing is a manufacturing process that creates three-dimensional objects by building up material layer by layer. In a 3D printing project, a digital 3D model of the object is used, and a 3D printer melts material layer by layer to create the object.

3D printing consists of four main stages:

1) 3D modeling – The process begins with the creation of a 3D computer-aided design (CAD) model or using a 3D scanner to capture the geometry of a physical object. The 3D model serves as a digital representation of the printable object;

2) Slicing – specialized software is used to divide the 3D model into flat horizontal layers, generating G-code that the 3D printer will execute.

3) Printing – The 3D printer follows the instructions in the G-code to create the object layer by layer.

4) Post-processing – After the object is printed, post-processing may be required, such as removing support structures, sanding, painting, or assembling multiple printed parts to create the final product.

3D printing has a wide range of applications, including prototype development, custom manufacturing, healthcare (for prosthetics and medical implants), aviation, automotive, architecture, and more. 

3D printēšanas priekšrocības:

• Design freedom – 3D printing allows the creation of highly complex and customized designs that are challenging to achieve with traditional manufacturing methods;
• Rapid prototyping – enables quick prototyping, reducing development time and costs;
• Cost-effective for small batches – cost-effective for small production runs or one-time manufacturing, eliminating the need for expensive molds or tools;
• On-demand production – Objects can be produced on-demand, reducing the need for inventory storage.

Disadvantages of 3D printing:

• Limited material options – Although the range of printable materials is expanding, it is still limited compared to traditional manufacturing;
• Slower speed – 3D printing can be slower than traditional methods, especially for large-scale production;
• Surface finish – Surface finish may not be as smooth as desired, and in many cases, post-processing is necessary.
