    Uploaded by

    Krishna Dorai
    The document discusses additive manufacturing, also known as 3D printing. It is described as a new form of manufacturing that creates objects by building up layers rather than carving or chiseling away material. The document outlines how 3D printing is being used innovatively in industries like aerospace, medical, jewelry, and more. Statistics show the 3D printing industry has grown exponentially, increasing from a $2.1 billion industry in 2012 to a projected $6.5 billion by 2019. With its many applications, the possibilities of 3D printing are nearly limitless.
