Description

A 3D printer is a peripheral device that uses a layer-by-layer method to create a physical object from a digital 3D model. 3D printing can be carried out in different ways and using different materials, but any of them is based on the principle of layer-by-layer creation (growing) of a solid object. The resulting objects can be ready-made parts and products, or they can also be used as objects for prototyping.
