3D printer
Term · Computing and IT · MLC-T-CMP-001421
A machine that constructs three-dimensional objects from a digital design by adding material layer by layer. It builds physical models from computer-aided design (CAD) data using processes like fused deposition modeling (FDM) or stereolithography (SLA). These devices are used for rapid prototyping, manufacturing, and creating complex geometries.
