ITPEC IP April 2026 Question 23
ITPEC IP April 2026 — Question 23 of 100
It forms a physical three-dimensional object from 3D data — this is additive manufacturing with a 3D printer.
A digital model is divided into thin cross-sections, and the printer deposits, cures, or fuses material layer by layer until a solid object is produced.
Answer (b)
Why not others:
- (a) describes a flat image that only appears three-dimensional
- (c) is ordinary printing onto an already existing curved object
- (d) describes a spatial or holographic display, not fabrication of an object
Key rule: A 3D printer produces tangible geometry from model data; it does not merely display or print the appearance of depth.
