  • 3D Printers have the ability to make copies of tangible items by printing in layers, with the final product being 3-dimensional. 3D printing is also known as stereolithography. The 3D printers may make copies of items designed through a CAD program or items scanned on a 3D Scanner. It works by using a UV laser to cure epoxy-based resin in layers to take the shape of the 3D file.

  • History

    The 3D Printer was developed by 3D Systems to assist developers in producing prototypes. Since the development in 1986, a larger number of companies have began producing different sizes and styles of 3D Printers, allowing for a greater variety of items to be replicated. There is currently a project to make a 3D printer to replicate itself, although it has not been accomplished yet.
