Study Notes

What is 3D Printing?

Also known as Additive Manufacturing (AM)
Turns digital 3D models into solid objects

How does 3D Printing Work?

Material extrusion process: nozzle pushes out semi-liquid substance into the shape dictated by the computer
Process called Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) or Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF)
Material is laid down layer by layer to form an object

History of 3D Printing

First developed in the 1980s for rapid prototyping

Tinkercad

Workshop covers learning 3D design and modeling using Tinkercad

Material Extrusion

Process of pushing out semi-liquid substance through a heated nozzle to form the desired shape
Used in 3D printing to create objects layer by layer
