It is All about 3D….
• Tradi)onal techniques use Subtrac1ve Manufacturing
• Carving out a model from a given volume
• 3D Prin)ng is a form of Addi1ve Manufacturing
• Genera)ng a part by building it layer by layer
• Automa)c construc1on of physical objects
using addi)ve manufacturing technology
What is 3D Prin)ng or Rapid Prototyping?
How Does It Work?
3D CAD File Save as “STL”
3D Prin)ng Process 3D Prototype
Step 1 Step 2 Step 3
STL (Standard Triangula)on Language) • The standard data format for Rapid Prototyping industry • Approximates the surfaces of a solid model with triangles
3D Prin)ng / Process
• 3D CAD file
• 3D CAD SW • Made by
designer
STL File
• 3D CAD SW
• “Save As” STL
Slicing of STL
• Objet Studio
SW
• Sliced to layers
Printing
• 3D printer
• Layer upon layer
Where Does 3D-‐Prin)ng Fit In?
• The world of design is ever improving and changes extremely fast
• We are producing more designs today than ever before
• Why?
• Because technology permits us to
• Become consumers want to be different
• And because communica)on is now at the )p of our fingers
Just look at the different iPod designs over the years
2012 (For now…)
The World of Design
• The below graph explains what is currently going on in today’s marketplace
• Mass customiza)on allows customers to meet par)cular needs at a premium price
The World of Design
Today’s trend
• And its everywhere…even in the automo)ve! Below example • Design your SMART… • SMART launches user design contest with 10,000+ designs submiced in first 10
days
The World of Design
Designing Validation Testing Manufacturing Prototyping
3D Printing of the CAD designs Using 3D Printers
Wide range of Applica)ons
• Tes)ng • Form, Fit and Func)on
• Marke)ng • Focus Groups, Exhibi)on, Sales tools
• Finishing • Gluing, Pain)ng, Polishing, Metal coa)ng, Chrome pla)ng
• Molding • Silicon molding, Injec)on molding,Vacuum forming, rapid tooling
Form test
Fit test Func)onal test
Designing Valida1on Prototyping Tes1ng Manufacturing
Tes)ng – High accuracy, Material variety
Long Term – Supply Chain Disrup1on • 3D Printers will get cheaper & start to print
quicker • They are already star)ng to print in materials like
steel, gold, )tanium, etc. • They will print not only prototype but finished
spare parts • This cuts out the need for warehousing or
shipping spare parts
