Additive Manufacturing (often referred to as rapid prototyping or 3D printing) describes accelerated manufacturing processes of three-dimensional objects such as prototypes and low-volume production, models or other end products.
Based on computer-generated data models successive layers of various materials such as polyamide or ceramic powders, metal alloys and filaments are laid down under computer control.
Methods employed are among others stereolithography (SLA), selective laser sintering (SLS) and fused deposition modeling (FDM). Industries profiting from the rapidly developing technology include but are not restricted to the automotive, aerospace and medical sectors as well as educational institutions and the arts.
