If you ask what additive manufacturing is, it is a technique for creating three-dimensional products from CAD models by layering material using digital data.

Previously known as rapid prototyping, and currently popular as 3D printing. The term Rapid prototyping was coined to describe the time efficiency of the AM process and technology, which created physical prototypes directly from digital model data. But now, many parts are directly being manufactured by these machines, so it makes no sense to call them prototypes. While the name is still under debate, as per the recently formed Technical committee within ASTM, they adopted a consensus standard to now use the term Additive manufacturing (3d printing).
