1 3D Printing Yesterday! Today! Tomorrow?????????????????????? Shane Rolton (BE Mech) Shane Rolton 3D and ProZ 3D

2 Background Presenter A Cadet Engineer with Hawker De Havialland Engineering Manager New Dawn Design Founded Wysiwyg 3D D Scanning services provider Formed ProZ 3D , a collaboration of 3 industry leading companies Wysiwyg 3D, Qubic, and CNC Engineering. 3D Printing Solutions provider! Backgound in Manufacturing, CAD, toolmaking, machining, 3D scanning and metrology, and 3D printing. We can do it Attitude!

3 3D Printing Additive Manufacturing History 3D Systems (3DS), Stratsys Main Players! 3DS invented 3D printing with its Stereolithography (SLA) printer and was the first to commercialize it in Scott Crump invented FDM (Fused Deposition Modelling) in 1991 Now Stratasys 3DS invented Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) printing and was the first to commercialize it in DS invented the ColorJet Printing (CJP) class of 3D printers and was the first to commercialize 3D powder-based systems in DS invented MultiJet Printing (MJP) printers and was the first to commercialize it in D printing has been used in Australia since mid 1990 s!

4 3D Printing Additive Manufacturing What is it? Back to the Basics It is the construction of a 3 dimensional object by depositing material layer by layer controlled by a computer, defined by CAD! Compared with CNC machining the removal of material layer by layer, controlled by a computer, defined by CAD! How? What Processes are involved? Ink jet, gluing, melting, welding, chemical fusion, curing, spraying!

106 FDM Type Stratsys professional plus 100 s of toy versions! Fused Deposition Modelling Heated Extruder This is where the consumer market is at! Developed 1991 and used in commercial machines, it was the release of this patent that started the home 3D printing trend! $500 to $300,00 plus! All work the same, but you get what you pay for!

107 FDM Type How they work! Shane Rolton

108 The Today! If we compare 3D printing to 2d printing, I feel we are currently somewhere between the 9 pin dot matrix and the 24 pin dot matrix paper printers of the early 1990 s! A time when consumers have cool desktop machines that do a job, but for high quality we still have to use service providers!

109 The Future!!!??????? Lets rewind years! Bespoke manufacturing Craftsman, 1 offs, made to order, slow, expensive, Fully Customized. Rewind to 1910! Henry Ford (Even today this is mainstream) Production line approach, you can have any colour you like as long as it s Black mass production has begun. Manufacture 1000 s of the same items to reduce the cost. Tooling costs are huge, high volumes required. Little choice, very little customization!

110 The Future!!!??????? Future Mass Customization! You can have any combination of colours, shape, materials all made to order but at mass production prices! Ie Hearing Aids Additive in Metal and then finishing! Ie print with material on and grind, or edm. Why not Print the electrode, polish and use in a undersized printed cavity! Especially difficult to machine materials! Challenges ahead Material validation? Process validation? CT, Xray, Simulations, build orientation, material selection, IP, Legals (Police and the Gun Thing),

111 The Future!!!??????? Future Mass Customization! Medical cells in a matrix of protein! Uni Wollongong! Deployable machines to oceans, deserts and space?! Cheaper, higher quality in the home (just like colour laser printers) Complexity comes for FREE! Design for Manufacture Different constraints! What if you combined a standalone 3D printer and a production line? Henry Ford s 3D Printer of the Future!?

112 The Possible Future!!!!!! Shane Rolton

113 Questions????? THANKYOU! Shane Rolton
