3D Printing is a process of manufacturing by adding materials and bringing together various technologies. It is used to create three-dimensional solid objects from a digital file. In this process, the solid body is formed by superimposing layers of a given material. Layer by layer, the material grows until the object is formed in its entirety. Each layer of material is equivalent to a thin horizontal section of the object. 3D printers can produce products in a variety of colours and materials.

At the Miguel Altuna Institute, we generate the digital file in two different ways:

  1. By creating three-dimensional drawings on the computer. We use the specially programmed Solid Works software for this purpose.
  2. Through a copy of the physical object with a 3D scanner, to then generate the digital file. An example of this method is the bust of our quality manager.
