What is 3-D Printing • After one designs an object, need to review design • Look at a blueprint • Build a scale model / prototype
What is 3-D Printing • Around 1986 an alternative was developed – 3-D printing • Break down the design into very thin layers (sort of like a CAT Scan) • Build up the part layer by layer. • Rapid Prototyping
3-D Printing goes Main Stream • CSI NY - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NKhpa5Nt6Ck
3-D Printing goes Main Stream • Recently the price has dropped significantly on 3-D Printers. • Cube by 3D Systems - $1299
