An
additive process is a method where something is built or created by adding layers or parts together.
Full definition
In other words, the next phase of 3D printing development within manufacturing companies will involve bringing 3D printing out of the realm of rapid prototyping and into the assembly line,
where additive processes are used to make parts that end up on the final product.
Her diminutive and occasionally monumental works composed through laborious,
additive processes push the medium beyond spectacle and into conversations about endurance - based performance, feminist thought, contemporary painting and conceptual art.
«Even though it's a
real additive process,» Gonzales remarks, «you don't feel it... they have a certain ease.»
Sofi Zezmer constructs her works by a
gradual additive process dependent on intuitive responses to the materials and objects she uses forming color - saturated assemblages.
That includes 400 new plastic processing facilities, in addition to plastic manufacturing facilities and
plastic additive processing facilities, which can produce some significantly harmful chemicals including pthalates and brominated flame retardants.
So, instead of aiming for a perfect cue, we did a subtractive rather than
additive process, of a quickly freeing mashup approach.
The object is then built through
an additive process, where successive layers of material are added until the entire object is created.
Using
an additive process whereby successive layers of material are laid down, it produces layers that are thinly sliced and horizontally cross-sectioned.
Our goal is to make the two work together and to have it be
an additive process - Â to really make sure that one side of the company knows what the other is doing.
Abts describes
an additive process in which she begins each piece by thinly painting brightly colored shapes on the primed canvas.
Her paintings are as much as

When I visited her studio last year, Hovsepian told me, «I feel an urge to work with my hands in
an additive process as opposed to the way I see straight photography.
Overgrowth also examines how generative growth and
additive processes are instrumental to the making of art.
While the works at the Saatchi Gallery reflect
my additive process of building large imagery out of an accumulation of small marks, in my new work I am reducing my form to its essential components, taking anything non-essential to either the form or the meaning out of the picture.
Mark making, usually
an additive process, becomes reductive in another new work, in which Yamahira has punctured the canvas surface in a pattern of seemingly spontaneous swirls and curlicues.
Favoring a large scale format, he manipulates acrylic paint as one creates thoughts — some willful movements, some impulsive; all carefully balanced in
an additive process.
So far, the PLANTOID Project has created two root - like robots: one that embodies artificial growth and can penetrate the soil by
an additive process of material and another that can bend in three directions and has sensory systems for temperature, humidity, gravity and touch, and the electronics required for sensor conditioning and actuation control.
Urbee is the first prototype car ever to have its entire body 3D printed with
an additive process.
Not only can these designs be fabricated by anyone who has access to a 3D printer, thus reducing the need to ship specialized parts,
this additive process can cut down on material waste.
In
an additive process, an object is created by laying down successive layers of material until the entire object is created.
