Everyone can benefit from 3D printing. The technology is that powerful.
Desktop 3D printers are an excellent toy for geeks, but it’s industrial-scale 3D printers that are the most disruptive. Combined with other technologies such as 3D scanning and 3D modeling, projects of previously impossible complexity can now be materialized.
Want to know more about these fields but don’t want to take the time to read lengthy academia-style materials or hyped-up marketing blogs?
Additive Knowledge was put together based on the work of hundreds of consultations on various additive manufacturing projects. And the content is focused on principles and mindsets, so the information provided will still be relevant and valuable even as the technology continues to progress.
