(documentation ThreeDPrinter EnglishLanguage "A ThreeDPrinter is a ComputerOutputDevice for the construction of a three-dimensional Object from a Computer-Aided Design (CAD) model or a digital 3D model. Three-dimensional models represent a physical body using a collection of points in 3D space, connected by various geometric entities such as triangles, lines, curved surface etc. In a 3D printing process, material is deposited, joined or solidified under computer control, with the material being added together (such as plastics, liquids or powder grains being fused), typically layer by layer.
