This type of processing leads to a complex formation forms. In the form of plastic, it is basically available in the market which is also called as the Alumide.

This technology is very well known to the market. Photopolymer resins are used in this kind of technology. The main job of the photopolymer resin is same as the UV laser that is used for the curing purpose of the photopolymer resin (Patel et al., 2017). These results by creating a area for the uncured resin that are presents in the bottom of the particular container.

Based on the UV images and in order to sequence the projects this technology is made method to use these. The method generation gets easier by taking the help of the projectors that are based on the digital lights. Transparent in nature that is the form of oxygen premade widow, and this is done by taking the help of this (Lee et al., 2016).

With the certain creation of the Vat that is considered to be resin of curable photopolymer type, this stereo lithography is mainly associated with. In the form of the small increments with the liquid kind of polymer, the plate of the building descends gradually (Dong et al., 2016). This is initially exposed to different kind of UV laser light which is drawn by various sections.

Manufacturing: the user always demands a faster and proper form of the prototype designing along with the proper verification and the tested designs. The manufacturer is hugely benefited as they are getting adopted with the faster processes and real mass based production techniques. The 3d printing technology is capable of adding layers which can save the cost of the processes and it is also flexible for the company. Besides helping with the production cost save and providing efficient products it can be used for various kind of testing purpose as well for the small parts manufacturing. For making the tools for the assembly this is also used based upon the orders. According to the tasks these tools of the assembly can be modified (Bhushan & Caspers 2017). Manufacturing environment that is learner based is also possible in this and can be used for the different purposes. For the fast production also this can be used whenever the speeding up the process of the manufacturing is required it will have applied the processes. Low volume of the data can be configured easily by the 3D printing technology. and it can be used for the proper finishing of the processes in a smooth way. With the cost reduction this technology also reduces the time also. It also helps to create an efficient supply chain with new models of the business by reducing the inventory cost management.

3D Printing Technology Applications

Prototyping: 3D printing is used all over the world in the recent times to do the different things prototyping in the all organizations. Prototyping is a method that is very effective in terms of the development of the processes it reduces most times that is involves in a project implementation. Prototyping has been considered as a key to get success in the market. Prototyping is a method of making a demo of the final product that is costly in the market. After evaluating the prototypes the final products are made (Macdonald et al., 2014). In the case of the technologies that are innovative this prototyping techniques can be used for saving the time also by doing faster processes. 3D printing is such kind of printing where the main base is upon the prototypes that are having the functional characters. The o prevent various kind of the critical issues the protypes has the ability in the system.
