It’s not, though, especially if that part is to be built by a 3D printer. Additive manufacturing – or 3D printing – can save weight, time, and money and often produce sturdier parts than otherwise possible. One way to prove them is with software that creates a digital version, or “clone,” of the part to be printed.
