3D printing is a new technology for modeling and creating parts, which is possible due to the invention of a series of "printers". These artifacts work with certain materials, mostly derived from plastic, whose mission is to superimpose layers and layers until the previously designed shape is achieved. Its use has been increasing since the 2000s and the cost of production, on the other hand, has been gradually decreasing. Thanks to this, innovative products have been developed, the assembly of which is much easier because their parts are prefabricated with a simple and inexpensive method.
Important sectors of the market have adopted these additive manufacturing techniques. The manufacture of jewelry, shoes, fragments of parts of cars, houses, spaceships and others, began a transformation journey towards an automated process. The companies in charge of creating these printers were faced with the task of offering new models, which could satisfy the demand and adapt satisfactorily to the requirements of the public.
The most widely used procedures today are four, each with some disadvantages, but which reduce the total investment in the production of the article. Inkjet printing is well known as it molds the prototype layer by layer and provides a full color model. The modeling by flux position proposes that the material that will be used to create the product be melted and deposited on a support structure, which would eliminate the obligation to use auxiliary supports. the photopolymerizationIt stands out for creating the object based on a molten liquid, which will be added one layer at a time, each of these being individually solidified by the action of a laser. Although it is in development, ice printing has become popular because the main material is treated water, which is an advantage with respect to saving substances for printing.
