This is an exciting time to be working in Design and Technology lessons at the moment. We have purchased a new machine that will revolutionize the way students design and manufacture products in the future. The RapMan 3.1 Rapid Prototyping machine can bring 3D models and CAD (Computer Aided Design) drawings to life. Students can design an object using Solidworks or Google Sketchup, then have the RapMan 3.1 manufacture it out of ABS.

ZBuilder Ultra Rapid Prototyping Highlights

The ZBuilder™ Ultra is a rapid prototyping machine that builds high‐end functional prototypes at onethird of the price of machines with comparable performance. Despite costing a fraction of the price of a stereolithography machine, the ZBuilder Ultra builds durable plastic parts that rivals injection moldings accuracy, material properties, detail, and surface finish. The ZBuilder Ultra builds 3D parts additively using a high‐resolution Digital Light Processor (DLP) projector to solidify a liquid photopolymer. It enables engineers to verify designs for form, fit and function prior to full‐scale production, eliminating costly modifications to production tooling and shortening time to market.

This video shows the steps to fabricate a simple centrifugal pump. The pump is fabricated by teams of two students in ENGR 120 at Louisiana Tech University. The entire pump is modeled using solid modeling software, and each student team’s impeller is rendered on a rapid prototyping machine from ABS plastic.
