Abstract :
3D printing is a process which uses a three-dimensional digital model to create a physical object by adding many thin layers of material in succession in order to produce finished goods. The term “additive manufacturing” is used to explain this principle. With 3D printing technology, a design file can transform directly to a product, skipping many traditional manufacturing steps. Various types of technologies are applied to create complex designs and customizable products on an individual basis with less effort than traditional manufacturing processes. The objective of this paper is to explore the impact of 3D printing technology on supply chain.
