Ukuprintwa kwe-3D yitekhnoloji yoguquko. Le ndlela isebenzisa ngokuthe ngqo idatha yeekhompyuter ezinemilinganiselo emithathu ukufikelela kumzekelo wemveliso esekwe kumgaqo wokubeka umaleko-ngokungqengqeleka komaleko ongaqondakaliyo. kunciphisa kakhulu umngcipheko weempazamo zabantu kunye nokuphakamisa ukusebenza kakuhle kwemveliso, iiprototypes ziphuma ngamaxabiso angcono kwamanye amatyala.
Ukuphuhliswa koshicilelo lwe-3D kukhawuleza kakhulu, inokusetyenziswa kungekuphela nje kwimveliso yevolumu esezantsi kodwa nakwimveliso yobuninzi kungekudala. Itekhnoloji yokushicilela ye-3D inefuthe elikhulu kakhulu kwiindlela zesiko ze IPrototype ekhawulezayo.
