3D printing, or additive manufacturing, is the construction of a three-dimensional object from a CAD model or a digital 3D model. [1] [2] [3] It can be done in a variety of processes in which material is deposited, joined or solidified under computer control, [4] with the material being added together (such as plastics, liquids or powder grains being fused), typically layer by layer.
3D Slash is a user-friendly 3D modeling software designed to make 3D design accessible, fun, and easy to use. Created with the goal of simplifying 3D modeling, the software employs a unique interface resembling a building game, making it intuitive for beginners to create 3D models. [14]
