3D printing is gaining attention in the Philippines. This is because of the increase in government support as well as entrepreneurial ventures.
DTI is already increasing the country’s printing infrastructure via funded Fab Labs. On the other hand, the National Economic and Development Authority has passed a norm. Give foreign companies more rights to develop local manufacturing capabilities.
The 3D printing market is estimated to generate up to around $100 billion in incremental value by 2025. This, in turn, impacts ASEAN projected real gross domestic product by 1.5 to 2 percent.
Let’s face it. Nothing comes cheap in the market nowadays. Especially if it’s something unique or personalized. But if you look at it from a different perspective, 3D2GO offers everything outside the box. Once you see the considerations, it would be easy to understand why they come in pricey.
The term “additive manufacturing” refers to the creation of objects by “adding” material. This is why 3D printing is a form of additive manufacturing.
When an object is created by adding material, it’s considered additive manufacturing. Like 3D printing, additive manufacturing typically requires the use of a machine as well as CAD software. The machine follows the instructions from the CAD software to build the desired object by adding material.
On the other hand, subtractive manufacturing is a complete opposite of additive manufacturing. If in additive, you literally add materials to create, subtractive is cutting away materials.
Subtractive manufacturing is a process by which 3D objects are constructed by successively cutting material away from a solid block of material. This can be done by manually cutting the material. This is most done with a CNC Machine.
