3D PRINTING TECHNOLOGY: METHODS AND MATERİALS

Generally called as 3D printing, Additive Manufacturing has a very good potential to shorten the manufacturing processes, minimize material and energy use, and reduce waste. With the industrial revolution and the changing consumer buying behavior, companies are looking for ways to quickly transform the traditional model currently being used in production and logistics into advanced technologies to gain competitive advantage over their competitors. A wide range of the available 3D printing technologies and materials makes it necessary to choose among the followings: dimensional accuracy, surface quality and post-processing requirements. The aim of this study is to classify and summarize the differences between the production methods of the Additive Manufacturing Technology and the types of materials used in these technologies. In addition, advantages, usage fields and current challenges of the 3D printing technology are mentioned.
