3D printing is a one of a new solution of manufacturing methods. This is caused by the ability of print a small part in a short time (rapid prototyping), but also because of the available materials. This is important because by using 3D printing, a specialized element is made for a specific apply. Compared with traditional production methods, such as turning and milling, 3D printing gives a wider possibility of making specific product patterns, thanks to which this method gained support and became a competitive one. Hence, the designing and manufacturing process based on it is more and more often referred as the “design-driven manufacturing”. This method gives the possibility of making personalized elements or a larger number of product variants, but also gives the possibility of manufacturing complete elements in one run. The article describes the possibilities of using 3D printing in the production of unusual elements in a uncertain situations.
