[0071] 3D printing may be useful in design-related fields for visualization, demonstration, and mechanical prototyping. It may also be useful for making patterns for molding processes. 3D printing techniques may be further useful, for example, in the fields of medicine and dentistry, where expected outcomes may be modeled prior to performing procedures. Other fields that may benefit from rapid prototyping technology include architectural designing, as well as others in which visualization of a design is useful.
[0072] One application of 3D printing is production of parts such as enclosures for consumer electronics. Parts for consumer electronics may have small sizes, tight constraints on their dimensions and complex shapes, which can make traditional subtractive manufacturing method difficult or expensive.
[0073] Another application of 3D printing is in the medical field. For example, replacement human body parts such as artificial bones may be created with 3D printing. Other examples may include scaffolds for tissue engineering, including but not limited to scaffolds that facilitate cell attachment and migration, delivery and retention of cells and biochemical factors, delivery and diffusion of cell nutrients and cell-expressed products, etc.
[0074] Yet another application of 3D printing is in the field of individualized consumer goods. For example, 3D printing can be used to create individualized interfaces to human body, such as customized ergonomic handles that fit each individual's hands.
