3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, is a process of creating three-dimensional objects by layering materials based on a digital design. It enables the production of complex and customized objects with various materials, ranging from plastics to metals, by depositing successive layers of material until the desired object is formed. Besides its technical advantages, additive manufacturing also shortens complex production processes, enables distributed manufacturing and is more sustainable than traditional manufacturing.
Food‑safe 3D printer filament like Markforged’s NSF‑ and FDA‑certified Nylon White FS revolutionizes food-and‑beverage manufacturing by enabling safer, faster, and customizable tooling directly on the factory floor.
