Utility and challenges of 3 D Printing

Abstract

This paper is all about the advanced technology of 3D printing, their implementation in the respective fields and its significant contribution in the global world of science and medical. In this paper we will deal with the term Additive Manufacturing or 3D Printing and a little bit of its history. Its various applications along with the type of materials used in the 3-D are also described. We shall also throw some light on the numerous opportunities provided by this emerging technology as well as the risks and challenges related to it. Its environmental aspects are also shown in the paper. Lastly the scope and scenario in future potential of 3D printing is also evaluated.
