Industrial design is an interdisciplinary activity leading to the development of new products that can be successfully launched on the market. Generally, the term industrial design is understood as the design process leading to the determination of various features of the industrial form. For many years, design was practiced using standard techniques such as sketch, presentation drawing, technical drawing, and mockups. However, the development of additive manufacturing techniques meant that an indispensable element in the industrial design is 3D printing, which allows to quickly create a prototype, a model of the designed detail. In this paper, on the example of engineering studies in the field of industrial design, the use of 3D printing in the process of design will be shown.
