3D Printing and Milling
3D printing and CNC milling are both vital technologies used in manufacturing and prototyping: 3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, builds objects layer by layer from the ground up. This process starts with creating a digital 3D model, typically in a CAD (Computer-Aided Design) software. The model is then sliced into thin horizontal layers and sent to the 3D printer, which deposits material layer by layer until the object is fully formed. CNC milling removes material from a solid block (known as the workpiece) using a variety of cutting tools to achieve the desired shape.
