Rapid Prototyping Machine

Posts Tagged ‘printing’

Matt Griffin of MakerBot Industries talks to Woot about MakerBot’s brand-new 3D printer, “the Replicator.” It was just a day or two old at the time of filming, but already churning out custom prototypes and parts where once were only notions, fancies, and a big spool of plastic filament.

DESIGNERS OF “INFINIUM” USE 3D SCANNING/PRINTING FROM Z CORP.: An article from: CAD/CAM Update

John Balistreri, Professor of ceramics at Bowling Green State University, explains the rapid prototyping process and BGSU’s patented powder and binder solution as well as its applications to art, industry, and medicine. BGSU is the leader in ceramic rapid prototyping and this video showcases some of the work done by students, grad students, and professors from different fields across the arts and academia.

To date, this content has been curated from Wikipedia articles and images under Creative Commons licensing, although as Hephaestus Books continues to increase in scope and dimension, more licensed and public domain content is being added. We believe books such as this represent a new and exciting lexicon in the sharing of human knowledge. This particular book is a collaboration focused on Printing processes.

Printing Processes, including: Reprography, Relief Print, Digital Printing, Photogravure, Laser Engraving, 3d Printing, Ozalid Process, Planographic … , Stochastic Screening, D-shape

OK, so yep… the manufacturer recommends no bigger than 10cm cube for a part printed in ABS. Even at that size, you’ll often get pretty bad warping. …unless of course, you design your parts to not warp. Here’s how I made some 20cm+ long parts. You don’t have to make the holes nearly as big as I did. ….just big enough to break up the layers. I happen to also want to save material by having bigger holes. So… there ya go.

Printing in Plastic: Build Your Own 3D Printer is your gateway into the exciting world of personal fabrication. The “printer” that you’ll build from this book is a personal fabricator capable of creating small parts and other objects from drops of molten plastic. Design a part using a modeling tool such as Google SketchUp. Then, watch while the fabricator head sweeps back and forth and upwards, depositing plastic in all the right places. You can build anything from a replacement tab to hold a bookshelf in place, to a small art project, to a bashguard for your bicycle. If you can conceive it and design it, you can build it, and you’ll have fun doing it!

Printing in Plastic is aimed at creative people comfortable using power tools such as a table saw, circular saw, and drill press. Authors James Kelly and Patrick Hood-Daniel lead you through building a personal fabrication machine based upon a set of blueprints downloaded from their website. Example projects get you started in designing and fabricating your own parts. Bring your handyman skills, and apply patience during the build process. You too can be the proud owner of a personal fabricator—a three-dimensional printer.

• Leads you through building a personal fabrication machine capable of creating small parts and objects from plastic
• Provides example projects to get you started on the road to designing and fabricating your own parts
• Provides an excellent parent/child, or small group project

Getting Started with the RepRap: 3D Printing on Your Desktop

@DocProfSky gives a talk on 3D printing at Desert Code Camp 2011 (apr2011.desertcodecamp.com at Chandler-Gilbert Community College in Arizona. He covers the basics of 3D printing then gives a live demonstration using a MakerBot Industries Thing-O-Matic 3D printer to print a whistle including the captive ball. A Q&A sessions follows.

My attempt at a quick overview of 3D printing for a class presentation. The compilation includes Includes excerpts from other youtube video (“printing a bicycle with a 3D printer”, “shapeways 3D metal printing”, random 3D printed objects, and “Zcorp 3D printer 650″.
