3D Printing

What is one huge difference between 2D (drawing on paper) and 3D design?

• You can't use colors when you 3D design and print.

• There are not many differences.

• 2D design can't be done on a computer.

• You have to always look at all sides and angles when 3D designing.

Identify the type of manufacturing done by a 3D printer.

• Repetitive

• Additive

• Discrete

3D printers will print in layers...

• from bottom to top

• from left to right

• right to left

• top to bottom

The action or process of making a physical object from a three-dimensional digital model, typically by laying down many thin layers of a material in succession.

• 3D print

• Laser Engraver

• 2 Dimensional

• Prototype
