The Additive Manufacturing Process with CADimensions
Learn about the engineering design process and the different roles that come together to make a successful project. Our additive manufacturing display visually depicts the journey from a simple sketch to a fully realized physical model of a car. By demonstrating each step of the process—from initial design concepts and digital modeling to the final 3D printed product—the team makes the engineering and manufacturing process accessible and exciting for young visitors. The goal is to ignite curiosity and interest in STEM fields, showing tangible results of innovative thinking and advanced technology.
