  2. Additive manufacturing file format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Additive_Manufacturing...

    Additive manufacturing file format (AMF) is an open standard for describing objects for additive manufacturing processes such as 3D printing.The official ISO/ASTM 52915:2016 [1] [2] standard is an XML-based format designed to allow any computer-aided design software to describe the shape and composition of any 3D object to be fabricated on any 3D printer via a computer-aided manufacturing ...

  3. 3D Manufacturing Format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_Manufacturing_Format

    3D Manufacturing Format or 3MF is an open source file format standard developed and published by the 3MF Consortium. [1] [2] 3MF is an XML-based data format designed specifically for additive manufacturing. It includes information about materials, colors, and other information that cannot be represented in the STL format.

  4. Digital modeling and fabrication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_modeling_and...

    Digital modeling and fabrication is a design and production process that combines 3D modeling or computing-aided design (CAD) with additive and subtractive manufacturing. Additive manufacturing is also known as 3D printing, while subtractive manufacturing may also be referred to as machining, [1] and many other technologies can be exploited to ...

  5. 3D printing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_printing

    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.

  6. Multi-material 3D printing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-material_3D_printing

    Multi-material 3D printing is the additive manufacturing procedure of using multiple materials at the same time to fabricate an object. Similar to single material additive manufacturing it can be realised through methods such as FFF, SLA and Inkjet (material jetting) 3D printing.

  7. Design for additive manufacturing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_for_Additive...

    Design for additive manufacturing (DfAM or DFAM) is design for manufacturability as applied to additive manufacturing (AM). It is a general type of design methods or tools whereby functional performance and/or other key product life-cycle considerations such as manufacturability, reliability, and cost can be optimized subjected to the capabilities of additive manufacturing technologies.

  8. Computer-aided design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer-aided_design

    In contrast to physical prototypes, which entail manufacturing time in the design. That said, CAD models can be generated by a computer after the physical prototype has been scanned using an industrial CT scanning machine. Depending on the nature of the business, digital or physical prototypes can be initially chosen according to specific needs.

  9. Fused filament fabrication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fused_filament_fabrication

    3D printing, also referred to as additive manufacturing (AM), involves manufacturing a part by depositing material layer by layer. [12] There is a wide array of different AM technologies that can do this, including material extrusion, binder jetting, material jetting and directed energy deposition. [13]
