  As advancements in 3D printing progressively shapes the way businesses approach prototyping and production, the technology has become more affordable and accessible. The article “3D Printing in Manufacturing: Visualizing  A New Mode Of Production”(Adam, 2017) mentioned that “3D printers aren’t just making an impact at the consumer level. Instead, they’re slowly changing the way manufacturers think about design, prototyping and even production”. The article also states that “3D printing has grown into a $6.063 billion industry and boasts a footprint in a wide span of industries”. The growth of revenue from 2016 to 2017 was at 17.4 percent worldwide, which shows how much the world is slowly embracing 3D printing. FormLab is one such company to take the capabilities of 3D printing a step further with the recent release of the 3D printer Form 3. Form 3 is a stereo lithography 3D printer that makes use of a light source such as a laser or projector to cure liquid resin into har...
