Three-Dimensional Printing refers to the additive creation of objects through layering materials that harden and bind to form solid structures. By arranging these layers according to design specifications, manufacturers can produce precise, complex geometries that defy traditional molding or machining capabilities. The method relies heavily on Computer-Aided Design (CAD) files that are then interpreted by a print head as it applies the chosen material - often in powdered or molten states. With advancements in 3D printing technology, production speed and efficiency continue to increase, expanding the possibilities for applications in engineering, product development, and even home furnishings.
