Plastic printing

3D printing involves taking a model and slicing into layers, then printing these layers on top of one another to recreate a 3D component. It’s an incredibly quick way to produce unique parts, or for small production runs, and is massively useful when wanting to quickly create prototypes. A variety of materials can be printed, such as polymers, metals and biological materials – however, desktop 3D printers tend to use plastics.
