Additive Manufacturing Technologies and Software Reference (2026)

A three-file reference dataset mapping the additive manufacturing technology and software landscape (2026). File 1 (am-technologies-detail-2026) catalogues 20 AM technologies with their ISO/ASTM process code and family (MEX, VPP, PBF, BJT, MJT, DED, SHL), the originating inventor/company and year, and short name — covering FDM, FFF, FGF, DIW, bio-printing, SLA, DLP, MSLA/LCD, CLIP, SLS, MJF, DMLS, SLM, EBM, Binder Jetting, CJP, Sand-BJ, PolyJet, WAAM and LOM. File 2 (technology-comparison-2026) compares 12 technologies by resolution, speed, materials, price range, complexity and post-processing. File 3 (software-comparison-2026) compares 9 slicer/CAD tools (Cura, PrusaSlicer, Bambu Studio, Chitubox, PreForm, Fusion 360, SolidWorks, Blender, Meshmixer) by type, price, platforms, supported technologies and learning curve.
