Understanding of Additive Manufacturing with the Combination of the Flexible Manufacturing Process

Abstract

Additive Manufacturing is 3D printing which requires a set of repeating steps throughout the process. STL, or Standard Triangle Language, is the most important step in the printing process that allows the model to be "sliced" the fastest and most proficient way, and allows the entire model to be modified at any step of the process. Although the printing process is the same for all the parts, some parts may be printed differently.
