Additive manufacturing, or 3D printing, is a rapidly growing field in which solid objects can be produced layer-by-layer. This technology will have a significant impact in many areas including industrial manufacturing, medical, architecture, aerospace, and automotive. The advantages of additive manufacturing are reduction in material costs due to near-net-shape part builds, minimal machining required, computer-assisted builds for rapid prototyping, and mass-production capability.
