Additive manufacturing, also called 3D printing, is a computer-controlled process to synthesize a three-dimension object by stacking materials layer by layer. This process starts from creating a digital three-dimension model of the object. Then the printing path of each layer of the object is layout by the computer software. Finally a stacking technology is selected to complete the production. Recently, the Economist Report has regarded additive manufacturing as an important technology in the third industrial revolution as internet of things (ICT), artificial intelligence (AI) and biological technology. Nowadays additive manufacturing has been commonly utilized in prototyping, art, automotive, aviation and medical industries.
