3Dtulostimissa
3Dtulostimissa refers to the use and operation of 3‑dimensional printers, a technology that builds objects layer by layer from digital models. The term is commonly used in Finnish contexts to discuss additive manufacturing methods such as fused deposition modelling (FDM), stereolithography (SLA), selective laser sintering (SLS) and digital light processing (DLP). These devices transform data from CAD files into physical parts, enabling rapid prototyping, customization, and small‑batch production.
In a 3Dtulostimissa workflow, a virtual design is sliced into thin cross‑sections, creating a set of G‑code
The main benefits of 3D printing include design freedom, reduced waste, lower tooling costs, and the ability
Challenges remain in achieving high‑speed production, consistency in part strength, and regulatory compliance for critical components.
