Ontwerp voor 3D-printen Hackchat

Bronknooppunt: 2670242

Kom op woensdag 24 mei om XNUMX uur Pacific naar de Design for 3D Printing Hack Chat with Eric Utley!

Like a lot of enabling technologies, 3D printing has had a strange trajectory. It started out as a laboratory oddity, moved on to industrial applications, and finally filtered down to the DIY set, first as scratch-built machines and later as inexpensive commodity printers that can be found almost anywhere. Pretty much everyone who needs a 3D printer now has one.

Not all additive manufacturing technologies are created equal, though, and there are plenty of applications for 3D printed parts where FDM just won’t cut it. Luckily, any of us can get access to the latest and greatest manufacturing technologies through job houses that specialize in everything from metal 3D printing to sheet metal fabrication, CNC machining, and even small-run injection molding. We may not be able to afford any of the machines, but in a lot of cases we can afford to rent time of them and get high-quality parts quickly.

What works on an Ender on your shop bench might not quite translate to the latest SLS printer, and sending off an iffy design could just end up wasting time and money. Whether you’re sending your designs out and running them up on your own printer, you want to know what you’re doing will work. That’s why we’ve asked Eric Utley, an applications engineer with Protolabs, to stop by the Hack Chat. With 12 years of additive manufacturing experience, he’ll be able to help you tune up your designs and make sure they’re ready to print.

Onze Hack Chats zijn live community-evenementen in de Hackaday.io Hack Chat-groepsberichten. Deze week komen we bijeen op woensdag 24 mei om 12:00 uur Pacific Time. Als u gebonden bent aan tijdzones, hebben we een handige tijdzone-omzetter.

Klik op die tekstballon aan de rechterkant en je wordt rechtstreeks naar de Hack Chat-groep op Hackaday.io geleid. Je hoeft niet tot woensdag te wachten; doe mee wanneer je maar wilt en je kunt zien waar de community het over heeft.
