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 printed human skull from computed computer tomography data. 3D printing has been used to print patient-specific implant and device for medical use. Successful operations include a titanium pelvis implanted into a British patient, titanium lower jaw transplanted to a Dutch patient, [50] and a plastic tracheal splint for an American infant. [51]
How 3D Printing Technology Keeps Old Cars Running Elana Scherr - Car and Driver. Additive manufacturing, or "3D printing," is commonly used for prototyping, as the machines can create parts ...
3D models may be created automatically or manually. The manual modeling process of preparing geometric data for 3D computer graphics is similar to plastic arts such as sculpting. The 3D model can be physically created using 3D printing devices that form 2D layers of the model with three-dimensional material, one layer at a time. Without a 3D ...
There are several methods for 3D IC design, including recrystallization and wafer bonding methods. There are two major types of wafer bonding, Cu-Cu connections (copper-to-copper connections between stacked ICs, used in TSVs) [18] [19] and through-silicon via (TSV). 3D ICs with TSVs may use solder microbumps, small solder balls as an interface between two individual dies in a 3D IC.

In August 2018 in town of Palekh (in Russia) was the world's first application of additive technology for 3D-printing new forms for a fountain. [79] The "Snop" (Sheaf) fountain was originally created in the middle of the 20th century by famous sculptor Nikolai Dydykin.
3D food printing is the process of manufacturing food products using a variety of additive manufacturing techniques. Most commonly, food grade syringes hold the printing material, which is then deposited through a food grade nozzle layer by layer.
3D film, a motion picture that gives the illusion of three-dimensional perception; 3D modeling, developing a representation of any three-dimensional surface or object; 3D printing, making a three-dimensional solid object of a shape from a digital model; 3D television, television that conveys depth perception to the viewer; 3D projection; 3D ...
