3D printing is an additive manufacturing process where a three-dimensional object is crafted layer by layer, following a digital model. Since the 1980s, 3D printing manufacturing technologies have undergone immense advancements.

Before we dive deep into the plethora of advantages, let’s skim the surface and grasp the broader benefits of 3D printing as an additive manufacturing technology

For industries like aerospace and defense, where highly complex parts are produced in low volumes, 3D printing is ideal. Using the technology, complex geometries can be created without having to invest in expensive tooling equipment.
