About Additive Manufacturing (AM)/ 3D printing
It is defined as the technology that constructs a three-dimensional object from a digital 3D model or a Computer-aided design (CAD) model by adding material layer by layer.
The addition of material can happen in multiple ways, namely power deposition, resin curing, filament fusing.
The deposition and solidification are controlled by computer to create a three-dimensional object.
Traditional manufacturing methods, by contrast, are subtractive in nature.
Subtractive manufacturing involves removing parts of a block of material in order to create the desired shape.
Cutting wood into useful shapes, for instance, is a very simple example of a subtractive process.
