  1. The Wonder of 3D Printing

  2. First Industrial Revolution Kaizen The first industrial revolution “began in Britain in the late 18th century, with the mechanisation of the textile industry. Source: http://www.kish.in/the_industrial_revolution/

  3. Second Industrial Revolution The “second industrial revolution came in the early 20th century, when Henry Ford mastered the moving assembly line and ushered in the age of mass production.” The third revolution “is under way” and that consists of manufacturing “going digital.”

  5. “Any Customer can have a car painted any colour that he wants so long as it is black” Henry Ford’s Remark on the Model T, 1909 Any customer can have a car painted any colour that he wants so long as it is black.Remark about the Model T in 1909, published in his autobiography My Life and Work (1922) Chapter IV, p. 71; this has often become presented in paraphrased forms such as: "You can have any color as long as it's black."

  6. Next Industrial Revolution The third revolution “is under way” and that consists of manufacturing “going digital.”

  7. Manufacturing Additive Subtractive

  8. Subtractive Manufacturing • Subtractive Manufacturing • – Milling • – Turning • – Drilling • – Computer Numerical Control (CNC) Machine

  9. What is 3D Printing? • is a form of Additive Manufacturing • – Process of joining materials to make an object • from 3D model Data; layer-by-layer process

  10. What is 3D Printing? • Digital Fabrication • - it takes a model • └a digital design • └turn into real, physical Object

  11. Type of Additive Manufacturing • SLS (Selective Laser Sintering) • FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) • SLA (Sterolithography) • DLP (Digital Light Processing)

  12. How 3D Printing Can Change the World?

  13. How 3D Printing Can Change the world? • Medical procedures • Advances in research • Product prototyping • Historic Preservation • Architectural Engineering Construction • Advanced Manufacturing • Food Industries • Automotive • Accessories

  14. AEC • Adopted 3D printing as a way to increase innovation • Reduce costs and speed up the process. • 3D models of buildings can be easily created and edited as plans develop – something that used to take a significant amount of time to make.

  15. Advanced Manufacturing • Airbus would like to make a 3D printer that is large enough to make planes from the ground up – a hangar-size printer as large as 80m x 80m. • Made In Space is a US company experimenting with zero-gravity 3D printing. The process could potentially allow astronauts to print objects as required in space, saving valuable weight at launch. • NASA has been looking at 3D printing for some time now, and considering the technology for long missions where astronauts could create their own equipment during the trip.

  16. Medical Procedures • Custom hearing aids and braces. • Body parts, including ears, hips and even organs, in exact proportions to fit the patient. • In February 2012, surgeons successfully implanted an entire titanium jaw, made with 3D printing, in an elderly woman.

  20. RepRap Project • Started in 2005 by Dr Adrian Bowyer • Develop an open source self-replicating 3D printer • Short for Replicating Rapid Prototype • General Public License (GPL) Source from Wikipedia

  21. RepRap Project RepRap Version 2.0 (Mendel) RepRap Version 1.0 (Darwin) Source from Wikipedia

  22. 3D Printer • Easy to Use • Economical to Own ones. • Can be Operate in a Office, lab, Homes, etc. • Equipping students with skills for the future • Affordably Price • takes digital input from 3D data and creates solid, 3D parts • used extensively by designers, engineers and hobbyists for • concept development and product design • objects such as fittings, crafts, jewellery and many others.
