ABOUT 3D PRINTING LATEST DEVELOPMENTS

Abstract

In this paperwork is presented a documentary research on one of the latest developments in 3D printing technology, the so called volumetric 3D printing. The 3D printing that commercially exists today is actually 2D printing, repeated layer after layer in the Z dimension. The new volumetric 3D printing technology creates the 3D object inside the entire volume of a photo-polymerizable resin that is solidified at the same time, in less than a minute. There are presented also the actual limitation and the bright future perspective of this technology.
