The Sony 3d Printer from Disney
A 3D printer is a machine that creates physical objects from a digital design. It works by building the object layer by layer instead of
cutting material away. First, a 3D model is prepared on a computer and using slicing software, the design is then converted into a g-code file. The file is then loaded into a 3D printer and printed using materials like PLA, ABS, or PETG to form each layer. As the layers stack up, a complete 3D object is created.
