HISTORY OF 3D PRINTING

The first working 3D


printer was created in
1984 by Charles Deckard
Hull of 3D Systems Corp

He named the technique


as Stereo lithography and
obtained a patent for the
technique in 1986.

HISTORY OF 3D PRINTERS

1984
Charles (Chuck) Hull developed the first 3D
printer and named the technique as Stereo
lithography.

Later 1990s
Other Companies developed 3d printers.

2005
Z Corp launched first high definition color 3D
printer.
Definition:-
3D + Printing = 3D Printing or Additive Manufacturing

It is a method of
converting a
virtual3D
modelinto a
physical object.

where a3Dobject is
created by laying
down successive
layers of material
Working

You only need a printer, raw


material, and software to tell the
printer what to print.
STEP 1 (CAD FILE IS CREATED)
STEP 2
The CAD file is exported to a 3D printing
machine.
LAYER BY LAYER
STEP 3-ACTUAL OBJECT
Different methods

Selective laser sintering (SLS)

Stereo lithography (SL)

Fused deposition modeling (FDM)


1 .SLS method

Selective laser sintering (SLS) is an additive manufacturing


technique that uses a high power laser (for example, a carbon
dioxide laser) to fuse small particles of plastic, metal (direct
metal laser sintering), ceramic or glass powders into a mass
that has a desired 3-dimensional shape).
2 .STEREOLITHOGRAPHY

Stereo
lithography is an
additive
manufacturing
process using a
vat of liquid UV-
curable
photopolymer
resin and a UV
laser to build
parts a layer at a
time.
3.Fused deposition modeling (FDM)

Fused
deposition
modeling
(FDM) is an
additive
manufacturing
technology
commonly used
for modeling,
prototyping,
and production
applications.

INDUSTRIAL DESIGN

Designers use 3D printers to quickly create


product models and prototypes.
ADVANTAGES

RAPID PROTOTYPING: 3D printing gives designers the ability to


quickly turn concepts into 3D models or prototypes (rapid prototyping).

Clean process. Wastage of material is negligible.

Complex shape can be produced .

EASY TO USE No skilled person needed.

REDUCE DESIGN COMPLEXITY

CHEAP Cheaper process than any other process.

People in remote locations can fabricate objects that would otherwise


be inaccessible to them.
DISADVANTAGES

Process is slow
Components do not have enough strength.
COST OF RAW MATERIALS
3-D printers are still expensive.
Misuse of technology
Although 3-D printers have the potential of
creating many jobs and opportunities, they might
also put certain jobs at risk .
(for example, you can make your toys at home so
toy stores and toy makers might go out of
business).
FUTURE

With today's 3D printers, if you lose your TV remote's battery


cover you can print a replacement battery cover. With
tomorrow's, if you lose your remote, you'll be able to print a
new remote.

3D printers are always getting cheaper and better.

There is currently research going on to create 3D printers that


could print out organs for people in need of a transplant.

Within a decade, 3D printers will become commonplace in


houses.

The benefits of such technology are endless.
