  • making processes finish faster
  • company has the design they can just make the prototype on their own.
  • Aside from the longer time spent in manual work, injury is also a big possibility especially to the person making the prototype.

  • One of the disadvantages of using 3D printing is the possible manufacturing of dangerous weapons. As we all know, anyone can get almost anything from the internet – including designs of dangerous weapons. If these design fall into the wrong hands especially those that have 3D printer, they could make dangerous weapons easily. Aside from that, 3D printing could also be used for counterfeiting. Designs of different objects can easily be duplicated and sold as counterfeits by unsuspecting customers.

  • The pros of using 3D printing would include making processes finish faster. In a design company for example, the usual process would be first come up with the design of the new product. Once the design has been approved, they send the design to a third party company to make the prototypes. The prototypes would be sent to the company for final checking and modifications. Overall, this would take weeks. With the help of 3D printing, this process would be shortened because once the company has the design they can just make the prototype on their own.

  • In China, 3D printing has carved out a niche in the advanced and high value-added manufacturing sector that involves complex parts and exotic materials.
  • Additive manufacturing cuts out the long lead times and design techniques like metal cutting or molding.
  • Today’s prosthetics and implants for use inside the human body already come in a variety of sizes and designs, but 3D printing can improve them by tailoring devices to each patient’s biology or injury. Bespoke implants mean better compatibility and fewer trips to the hospital, which could potentially ease the strain on China’s already stretched social security system, and it is where Materialise hopes to leverage its expertise in 3D printing in China. The Belgian company is looking to work with doctors to design devices like jaw implants from scans of patients’ mouths, says Francois. The digital models would then be printed in medical-grade titanium.

  • The long-term impact on supply chains could be profound. As companies start using 3D printers to produce parts on demand, on site and only as needed, a plethora of players—from storage to shipping—would lose out in a shorter, simpler supply chain, while consumers would benefit through localized production and leaner inventories.
  • same component could be ready in hours
  • Chief among them is that it can take anywhere from hours to days to print an object. While that may be an improvement for applications like rapid prototyping, it is impractical for larger-scale production. An assembly line in Shenzhen can churn out a product in the hundreds of thousands or even millions in the same amount of time it takes to print a component. “It’s an order of magnitude slower than what it’d need to be,” says Vicari.
  • The compounds used to print objects are expensive and only a handful can be used due to the required performance standards.
  • Titanium is popular for printing industry-grade parts because the metal is lighter and stronger than steel
  • At-home printing will not become widespread until printers become more reliable and the tools for using them more intuitive.

Palentology

shared by Jane O'Kelly on 19 Feb 14 - No Cached
  • Paleontology has been using the same, solid tools for around 150 years. However, Dr. Kenneth Lacovara of Drexel University decided it was time for the art of digging up dinosaur bones to catch up with technology. Palentologists can now use the required skills to print in 3D to make replicas of their bone findings to send to doctors and scientists around the world. This way, the discovery can be truly researched without restrictions.
  • Have you ever wanted to eat your own face? Well, thanks to print in 3D, now you can! The 'Eat Your Face Machine' (EYFM) is a 3D printer developed by David Carr and the MIT Media Lab. The EYFM scans your face and then recreates it onto a block of chocolate. The end result being your face, in chocolate, ready to eat. NOM!
  • Brazilian footwear company Melissas caught the 3D printing bug and have been creating incredible fashion designs ever since. The shoes are made out of a proprietary plastic called Melflex using injection-molding and 3D printing. Any left over material is saved and used for the next print in 3D project, so the process is nice and green! These invisible shoes were created by Andreia Chaves.
