Question

3d printing examples select all the qualities and benefits of 3d printing that make it advantageous for printing the complex pieces of torpedo launch systems. creates detailed digital 3d models of the parts from cad files allows submariners to print replacement pieces while at sea builds large components quickly reduces waste

Explanation:

• "Creates detailed digital 3D models of the parts from CAD files": 3D printing uses CAD files to create physical parts, but creating the digital model is part of the design phase (CAD), not a direct benefit of the 3D printing process for producing the part. So this is not a benefit of 3D printing the part.
• "Allows submariners to print replacement pieces while at sea": 3D printers can be deployed on submarines, enabling on - site manufacturing of replacement parts, which is a key advantage for complex parts in a marine environment.
• "Builds large components quickly": 3D printing is often slower for large components compared to traditional manufacturing methods, and for complex torpedo launch system parts, speed in building large components is not a typical advantage of 3D printing.
• "Reduces waste": 3D printing is an additive manufacturing process, meaning it builds up parts layer by layer, using only the material needed for the part, thus reducing waste compared to subtractive manufacturing (like machining) which cuts away from a larger block of material.

Answer:

• Allows submariners to print replacement pieces while at sea
• Reduces waste
