3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, is a process of making three dimensional solid objects from a digital file by laying down successive layers of material. It allows for the creation of customized products and rapid production of prototypes at low cost. Some applications of 3D printing include use in the medical field to create prosthetics and organs, in the aerospace industry to print rocket engines, and for food production. Issues with the technology include potential misuse and a need to regulate the types of items produced.
