History of 3D Printers

What is a 3D Printer?

A 3D printer unlike the common printers, prints objects in three dimensions. 3D printers use different types of additive manufacturing technologies to create 3 dimensional objects by building the object layer by successive layer, til the whole object is complete. It is a lot like printing in 2 dimensions on sheets of paper, but with an extra added 3rd dimension.
