What is 3D printing? • 3D printing takes a digitally created model and creates a solid, usable 3D object through an additive, layer-by-layer process. • Transformation Technology – creates a new market to support existing ones. X Quarter NBOD Meeting2007 National BDPA Technology Conference
What is 3D printing? • Like the replicators in Star Trek or The Jetsons! X Quarter NBOD Meeting2007 National BDPA Technology Conference
The printer • 3D printers are similar to inkjet printers. • Instead of ink, 3D printers deposit material in layers. • Over a dozen types of printing processes! X Quarter NBOD Meeting2007 National BDPA Technology Conference
