免费的3D设计培训探索3D打印设计的自由和限制

随着3D打印的越来越受欢迎,许多3D打印机的新所有者正在使用3D打印迈出第一步,我们已经看了一些可用于学习3D打印的雷电竞app下载资源。这些free resources include a look at the popular 3D Benchy to calibrate and test 3D printersand免费课程可以学习3D打印

As we continue with our look at the free resources available to learn 3D printing, we visited another free class: How to Enhance Your Design with 3D Printing.

The course takes place at iMakr’s London store. Store manager Julien De Muyter opens the 3D Design seminar saying,“There’s a difference between design and designing for 3D printing.”Two of the in-house designers then take over the presentation, breaking down the things that need to be kept in mind when making something数字的for aphysical打印。

Freedoms and restrictions

普遍的误解是,任何3D模型都可以打印出3D,就像任何Word文档,照片或电子表格都可以被2D打印一样,事实是,即使在2D典型打印中,也必须发生翻译行为。

The 3D designers explain that though an object may appear 3D on a computer, if it hasn’t been designed for 3D printing it will beall surface,,,,i.e. there is no inner geometry to give it support if it is to become aphysical3D对象。

我ncorporating limits into 3D design

表示是我nto the freedoms and restrictions of 3D printing, particularly for fused filament fabrication (FFF) that most people are already familiar with, i.e. the layering of molten plastic.

  • 涉及的生产量。
  • FFF 3D打印单个大物体(没有多个零件) - 在技术上可以使用BigRep和Delta WASP等3D打印机,但在工业用途之外不容易获得。雷电竞app下载

To optimise a design for 3D printing, it is important to take these into consideration. By doing this the benefits of 3D printing can be harnessed, these include

  • The creation of bespoke objects
  • Re-engineering objects in multiple parts to improve an object’s functionality

Freedoms of 3D Printing

与制造3D对象的其他过程(例如注射成型和CNC铣削)相比,3D打印的优点被解释为

The 3D designers then give examples of how these ideas can be manipulated in a 3D design, and give an introduction to theWedesignlive平台作为初次计时器掌握该技术的好方法。

这些课程是任何想要对技术进行动手介绍的人的理想选择。主持人准备好回答有关该主题的问题,并用商店周围的示例说明了他们对观众问题的回答。一位访问者特别有兴趣将3D设计用于3D打印牙型模型,该团队解释了一种更有机的设计方法,即数字雕刻,最适合这个想法。

When can I check it out?

任何有兴趣了解更多信息的人都可以在星期四前往伦敦Farringdon的Imakr商店。3D设计课程目前每月举行一次,可以预订Imakr在Eventbrite上

The first tip they give however is to“保持接近技术”and that’s one thing readers of 3D Printing Industry will certainly be equipped for already!
