Abstract

As the ability to fabricate highly complicated computerized geometry makes additive manufacturing a significant technology in the present day, it has a significant impact on both the manufacturing and design industries. As a result of their intrinsic mechanical and anisotropic properties, pure polymer parts which are 3D printed completely have a limited application potential. Their capabilities have been improved by the filler inclusion for more versatility and application. Innovative benefits of 3D printing include simplicity of material modification, low production cost, less waste, and customised geometry. The overview describes the advancement of matrix composites printing technologies for 3D printing materials with improved qualities including its uses in the electronics, automotive, aerospace, and biomedical. In conclusion, the technology of 3D printing is analysed, highlighting its capabilities and shortcomings.
