North Technical High School’s Precision Machining Program recently received a modern Dimension 1200es 3D printer System. In today’s field of engineering, architecture, and design, prototyping a three dimensional drawing is an essential step in the design process.
A 3D printer combines or fuses successive layers of material in a form of “additive manufacturing” [...]
The propeller blade-span is over 10 feet in this project that demonstrates how far 3D modeling has advanced.
MINNEAPOLIS, Dec. 2, 2009 — At Autodesk University 2009, Stratasys (NASDAQ: SSYS) and Autodesk unveiled the world’s first full-scale turbo-prop aircraft engine model. It was produced using Stratasys FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) technology.
The engine’s design was created using [...]
Fancy a new vase or some unbreakable crockery for that camping trip, but haven’t got time to go shopping? What about a replacement for the broken spoke on your spectacles or an individually designed heads for your golf clubs? Or, how about a scale model of that new sports car your kids designed or a [...]
3D printing technology assists in the prototype testing phase by producing prototypes in a more efficient and time sensitive manner. Where redesigning, retooling and recreating prototypes took a considerable amount of time, the 3D printing system can have a redesigned prototype ready for the next phase of testing in a much shorter period of time [...]
Three-dimensional technologies create better designs and plans. In the world of printers, there is also such a thing as three-dimensional printing – otherwise known as rapid prototyping technology. This one is a design process where computer programming will be needed. The program takes responsibility in building 3d models through the aid of fabrication material layering. [...]
