Abstract

Within the framework of sustainable development and technological advancement, 3D printing has emerged as a novel trend in industrial manufacturing. Traditional wood usage presents significant challenges, including high resource consumption, low production efficiency, and environmental pollution. This study explores the application of 3D printing technology in wooden art and furniture products, which supports complex designs, allows rapid prototyping, and small-batch production, thereby significantly reducing material waste. The research methodology includes design concept and model creation, material selection and processing, optimization of the printing process, and post-processing and refinement. The key findings suggest that 3D printing can utilize recycled wood, reduce costs, and enhance material utilization, supporting environmental sustainability. This study highlights the unique value of 3D printing in enhancing production efficiency, environmental friendliness, and cultural modernization.
