Digital fabrication tools
Digital fabrication tools are computer-controlled devices used to create or modify physical objects with precision. They include machines such as 3D printers, which build objects layer by layer from digital designs; CNC machines, which cut and shape materials like wood or metal based on precise instructions; and laser cutters, which use focused laser beams to carve or engrave materials. These tools enable quick, accurate production of prototypes, custom parts, and artworks, bridging digital design and physical creation. They are widely used in industries like manufacturing, architecture, and design to streamline production and foster innovation.
