MakePrintable Takes on Big Names with Universal 3D Print Prep Software

MICHAEL MOLITCH-HOU 

Two of the giants in the 3D printing software space, with tools designed specifically for 3D printing prep, are Belgium’s Materialise and Autodesk, augmented greatly by its recent acquisition of netfabb. With such big names dominating the field, it might be difficult to imagine the chance that a small startup would have in providing its own solution for 3D file prep and management; however, MXD3D’s MakePrintable cloud service for repairing 3D files has become a popular, free solution in the 3D printing community and could just prove to be the David in a Goliath-dominated scene. Not just due to the intuitive interface and quality of the online software, but because of the brains behind it.

Building Wonders in 3D Printed Ceramics: Meet Designer Adam Furman

Fabian

London-based designer Adam Nathaniel Furman is quite an all-round talent: he is trained in architecture and fine arts, but also works in areas like product design, interior design, writing, and teaching. It only seems logical that a person who is so eager for knowledge would soon embrace the world of 3D printing. Let’s take a closer look at some of his stunning 3D printed designs. 

Back in 2013, Adam had already created 3D printed ceramic objects for his ‘Designers in Residence’ commission at the London Design Museum. The project he worked on was called ‘Identity Parade’ and consisted of 3D printed ceramic vases and ornaments, painted in luminous colors and flashy patterns. For this project, Adam actually slipped into the role of a fictional designer:

Dica de DesignWorld:

Como fazer dinheiro com uma Impressora 3D? 

Esta é uma ideia bem inteligente e prática, usá-la para fazer Matrizes e ferramental personalizados, para criar e instalar Peças em várias Indústrias, e Serviços.

Boa ideia!  
E, estou farto de vos dizer, vejam toda a série de Vídeos que aparecem no Youtube, relacionados com este tópico, no fim deste Vídeo.  

Tips for using 3D printing for tooling

Design World 

One issue with 3D printing for potential users is justifying the expense. 

Tooling (jigs and fixtures) are often an expensive, time involved, but highly necessary aspect of manufacturing. 

By using 3D printers to speed up the development of tooling, users get immediate cost return benefits.

Introducing our new Multi-material Ensembles

ARTHUR CASSAIGNAU 

Handling multmaterial 3D prints is THE dream when it comes to 3D printing. If 3D printing directly in all the materials available in the industry is not doable yet, the team at Sculpteo figured out a way for you to do it anyway. Thanks to a new feature you can now fully configure your Ensemble so that it includes parts with their own specifications. Within the same Ensemble, you are now able to configure parts with different materials, finishes and even sizes. Let’s take a look.  

It’s no secret, many of our users 3D print Ensembles, sets of parts and batches of pieces. Until not so long ago, the only way to create those was to print them one by one. This changed ealier this year, when we introduced two things: multi-upload and ensembles, allowing you to do two things very well:

• Simultaneously upload a large quantity of 3D files in a single pass

• 3D print off a whole set of different pieces – as long as you wanted them all in the same material

http://www.sculpteo.com/blog/2015/10/22/introducing-our-new-multi-material-ensembles/

E ajudar os outros, ajuda este humilde Divulgador, eis como encontrei esta série de Animações de Mecanismos, ajudando um Bacano na Mechanical Adventures, um outro nosso amigo tinha encontrado algo de muito úitil aos Engenhocas...

Mais uma série de Vídeos incríveis, no Youtube!

Input: the yellow gear.
Its number of remained teeth Z1c = 9
Its number of teeth (teeth-completed) Z1 = 20
Its number of cut-off teeth Z1f = Z1 -- Z1c = 11
Output: the green gear.
Its number of teeth (teeth-completed) Z2 = 20.
When the yellow makes 1 revolution, the green makes 1/2 revolution.

4 New LUTUM 3D printers to revolutionize Digital Pottery

3d printing is probably the most versatile technological development we have seen for a long time. While we keep reporting about different kinds of Plastic based printers, companies like Vormvrij remind us that there is more to 3d printing than just plastic. The beauty of 3d printing is that with a little modification to an everyday FDM printer it can be hacked into making products like Chocolates, pancakes and even Clay pottery. Vormvrij a Dutch company has announced 4 new 3d printers that can print using CLAY.
These Clay printing LUTUM 3D printers are available in all shapes and sizes and also features the world’s first dual color claystruder which allows the user to print two colors or different kinds of clay on a single print. The company has launched 4 variants of these 3d printers, they are mentioned below.

E eis uma notícia agradável, da Makezine, podem usar os módulos da LittleBits, para animar a vida, com esta proposta bem interessante:

littleBits Releases MIDI and USB I/O Modules, Connects Analog and Digital Instruments

Sophia Smith

LittleBits, purveyors of the simple-to-use electronic components with magnetic connectors, is releasing some brand new bits to expand its music capabilities: a MIDI module, a USB I/O module, and a CV module. Musical makers now have the ability to connect their littleBits Synth Kit to any musical equipment they want!
In collaboration with KORG, littleBits launched their Synth Kit back in November 2013. The littleBits Synth Kit allows anyone to make an analog instrument right out of the box and hook it up to a computer, amplifier, or headphones. In an effort to create harmony (pun intended) between analog and digital worlds. These latest bits connect directly into the Synth Kit world to push those capabilities even further.

Build your own ceramic delta 3D printer

Belgian Design Studio Unfold started extruding ceramic materials with a RapMan 3D printer back in 2012. Their modified ceramics 3D printer offers possibilities to produce fine layers and new forms that traditional pottery techniques hardly can make. Inspired by Unfold's work, but also annoyed and frustrated by 3D Systems buying out Bits From Bytes and then stopping the production of the RapMan 3D printer, Jonathan Keep decided to develop his own replacement 3D printer.

Mini Router Table

Make a mini router table for your high-speed rotary tool.

Small pieces often require precise routing that just isn't safe on a full-size router table. And, trying to shape the workpiece in one hand with a rotary tool held in the other isn't any better. To solve the problem, WOOD. magazine reader Chuck Middleton built this scaled-down table to house his high-speed rotary tool.

ARTISTAS! A Trotinete em madeira, Cerâmica impressa em 3D, uma Engenhoca FX para a TV, e a Maker Faire em Lisboa

Este nosso amigo Zeloko, do grande Blogue L'air du Bois, é um Génio!

Ver isto, é maravilharmo-nos perante algo que só visto, e pasmarmos, pensando, porque é que a Trotinete não foi inventada pelos Gregos?
Porque ninguém se lembrou!
Material para apresentar em Grande Estilo, na próxima Maker Faire, em Lisboa, penso eu...

Trottinette en bois
Zeloko

Voici une trottinette quasiment entièrement en bois (hors axes). La technique principale utilisée est le lamellé collé, tant pour les roues que pour le cadre.
La géométrie des roues m'a été inspirée par cette vidéo de Chet Baigh.

J'ai conçu ce projet pour qu'il soit réalisé dans le cadre d'un atelier de découverte des possibilités du bois et par des adultes en majorité débutants dans le travail du bois.

Les principales pièces ont été préparées dans mon atelier et la finalisation du projet a été faite en itinérant dans le cadre d'un séminaire d'entreprise.

Mais um Artista, este não desistiu de tentar, até que fez a Impressão 3D funcionar, para algo como para obras Primas em Cerâmica, que seriam impossíveis de fazer de outro modo. 

Maravilha!

3D Printed Clay Art of Oliver Van Herpt
Cabe Atwell

 

Oliver van Herpt is an artist whose obsessive compulsion has led to a victorious invention: a 3D printer which creates lovely pottery. Considering the manner in which 3D printers work, one layer at a time, creating 3D pottery has been less than elegant as each layer cannot be masked. Of course, this doesn’t even take into account how hard it is to stop wet clay from collapsing in on itself.

So, van Herpt’s elegant pottery is quite an impressive feat which was achieved by hours of intense messing about with code and hardware. In the end, this version of van Herpt’s creation is a water cut steel, delta-style printer that stands 5 feet tall and can create clay pots both big and small (yep, it even rhymes).

What's a Maker Faire

Maker Faire is the Greatest Show (and Tell) on Earth -- a family-friendly showcase of invention, creativity and resourcefulness, and a celebration of the Maker movement. It’s a place where people show what they are making, and share what they are learning.

Makers range from tech enthusiasts to crafters to homesteaders to scientists to garage tinkerers. They are of all ages and backgrounds. The aim of Maker Faire is to entertain, inform, connect and grow this community.

3-D Printing Hits Rock-Bottom Prices With Homemade Ceramics Mix

ScienceDaily (Mar. 31, 2009) — This story is, literally, stone age meets digital age: University of Washington researchers are combining the ancient art of ceramics and the new technology of 3-D printing. Along the way, they are making 3-D printing dramatically cheaper.
About five years ago, Mark Ganter, a UW mechanical engineering professor and longtime practitioner of 3-D printing, became frustrated with the high cost of commercial materials and began experimenting with his own formulas. He and his students gradually developed a home-brew approach, replacing a proprietary mix with artists' ceramic powder blended with sugar and maltodextrin, a nutritional supplement. The results are printed in a recent issue of Ceramics Monthly. Co-authors are Duane Storti, UW associate professor of mechanical engineering, and Ben Utela, a former UW doctoral student.
"Normally these supplies cost $30 to $50 a pound. Our materials cost less than a dollar a pound," said Ganter. He said he wants to distribute the free recipes in order to democratize 3-D printing and expand the range of printable objects.

Japanese Defense Ministry shows world's first spherical flying machine

By Randolph Jonsson

Star Wars fans (like me) will get a vague sense of deja vu when they see this flying sphere in action. Weighing in at about 12 ounces (350 g), the 16-inch (42 mm) diameter flying ball can launch and return vertically, maintain a stationary hover and zip along at up to 37 mph (60 km/h). Coupled with the ball camera we reported on earlier this month, it could become a valuable reconnaissance platform. Who knows? In time, more advanced autonomous versions might actually be used to train would-be Jedi knights. Once again, life imitates art.

Open Materials

Vi, e gostei.

Vem no Open Materials, um Site a visitar, até tem estes fios luminosos, é do caraças!

Nas palavras dos próprios organizadores, sobre a Iniciativa:

about

OpenMaterials is a research group dedicated to open investigation and experimentation with DIY production methods and uses of materials.

In the spirit of the open source software and hardware movements, we hope to promote materials to be researched and developed in a public, collaborative manner. We see materials as an open resource, and wish to establish an open process for exploring and sharing knowledge, techniques and applications related to materials science.

Inspired by Eric Raymond’s comment in ‘The Cathedral and the Bazaar’, regarding the bazaar style which he described as “a great babbling bazaar of differing agendas and approaches”, we hope to encourage discourse and experimentation with the broadest range of materials and processes possible.

This website is intended as a platform to share knowledge, resources and discoveries, as well as document experiments and processes.

Uma Fornalha de Arco Eléctrico

O que está de errado nesta imagem? Faltam os ÓCULOS DE SOLDADOR!

Encontrei isto aqui:
http://blog.modernmechanix.com/2007/03/19/experimental-arc-furnace-melts-anything/

É um projecto bastante útil, para derreter não importa o quê, e mais económico que apenas usando resistências, usando uma limitação da corrente por reactância, vejam o texto, tanto na imagem, como na versão de texto abaixo, na página que eu referi.

ATENÇÃO - Um Arco Eléctrico só pode ser operado em segurança com ÓCULOS OU MÁSCARA DE SOLDADOR, não Óculos de Sol, nem dada disso, vejam lá o que fazem...

Claro que isto tem os seus usos, mas é um projecto de laboratótio.
