A new study demonstrated the benefits of 3D printing for manufacturing, using a headlight lens as an example. 3D printing achieved exceptional precision and surface quality while also outperforming traditional methods in production efficiency and cost-effectiveness. The image shows the Luce Memorial Chapel in Taichung, Taiwan viewed through one of the 3D-printed headlight lenses.
