Introduction People download open-source 3D CAD files or implement their new designs on 3D printing software to prototype their essential projects. The 3D printer is a specialized or complicated device that enables humans to create their independent projects not only tailored to “personalized medicine” which relies on understanding a person’s genetic profile to identify and manage health problems, but also in the automotive industry, which rapid prototyping is used to test the functionality of…
“3D printing is an additive (layer-by-layer) manufacturing method that creates 3- dimensional objects using a printer from a digital file.”[1] It allowed manufacturing to use less tooling; to be more cost effective due to the reduced amount of raw material needed; and also to be able to manufacture complex shaped objects that traditional molding could not achieve.[2] However, 3D printing doesn’t only rely on one single technique. There are different types of techniques that would deliver the…

There are numerous scientists who have positively impacted the field of Chemistry; from Robert Bunsen to George Washington Carver, chemists have and continue to shape the publics knowledge of Chemistry. However, one chemist stands out from all the rest because of his historical, societal, and person significance: George Claude Pimentel. Pimentel’s life, work, and contribution to Chemistry have shaped this field and impacted it in ways that other scientists have not. Background George Claude…
THE BEST 3D PRINTERS UNDER $1000 BY NAME: So, if you 're not already salivating over the prospects of owning a 3D printer, you will be in a minute. With all the capabilities they posses, you 'd never expect one of these machines to be priced within reach of the "average" consumer, but in fact, many are. While there are high-end printers, mostly used by major companies, that could easily run you 10 or 20 thousand dollars, there are numerous models available for less than one thousand. Here are…
Abstract The Innovation Ladder presents the extended study of innovation from the start or the scratch to the implementation of new recent technologies, processes, services/products and executive arrangements. From the early stages of the disk machine to the translucent cells and current CGI animation, technology has been making revolutionary changes in the animation industry. Innovation has become a major concern of the company that is tougher than it sounds, particularly if the objective is to…
It offers rapid prototyping and can create finished parts on the go with great precision. The complexity with which it prints these parts is almost impossible to replicate using traditional methods. 3D printer printed jet fuel nozzles in one piece and they are 33% lighter and stronger than the cast version. The design took 6 weeks instead of usual 6 months. 3D printed parts are lighter compared to the parts that were made of solid materials. The ability…
Plastics (Phenolic resins, Epoxy resins, Polyesters and Polyurethanes) are materials which make up the objects which we use in our everyday lives such as phones, cars, cooking utensils, computers and shoes, (http://www.slideshare.net). Plastics are a group of material which can either be synthetic or naturally occurring. Plastics are considered as polymers a substance which has a molecular structure with a large number of units bonded together, (http://www.chemheritage.org). Most plastics are…
Have you ever wondered where you will end up in the future? Where you want to be, who you want to be, or what you want to do? When I grow up, I want to work at Pixar making the scenes and characters that you see in the animated movies. It’s a long road to get there, but it’s one that I’m willing to take. To create the movies you see in the theaters, Pixar uses Blender (not the one on the kitchen counter), Gimp, and many physical art forms too. Blender is where you create the models, animate…
learned new things with Tinkercad. I learned how to make designs with different shapes and learned what 3D printing was actually like. It was difficult at first but then I got the hang of it and I started to love it. I created an earbud holder that was a mouse that actually worked out pretty well. It took a lot of time and processing to create it and print it. It also took a lot of creativity to make it unique and interesting. There are some different things that I had in mind before making a…
