Abstract

The integration of CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machines with printing technologies has opened up new avenues for cost-effective digital fabrication and manufacturing. While 3D printers have gained significant traction for producing prototypes and end-use parts, their high upfront cost, material expense, and limited versatility remain significant barriers to widespread adoption, particularly for small-scale producers. This paper explores the use of CNC machines as an alternative solution for low-cost printing applications. It examines the technological advancements, cost-saving opportunities, and practical applications of CNC machines for printing, focusing on how these machines can be adapted to perform printing tasks traditionally handled by 3D printers. By analyzing case studies and emerging trends, this paper demonstrates the potential for CNC machines to provide high-quality, cost-efficient printing solutions across various industries.
