With the reusable workflows in nTop Platform and FDM 3D printing, industrial designers are able to rapidly iterate and prototype the design of functional parts.
Small manufacturers play a critical role in keeping the world’s supply chain moving, yet adoption of Industrial IoT solutions by the group is lagging. What can be done?
The fastest flow controller manufacturer in the world doubles production to support skyrocketing COVID-19 ventilator demand for mass flow meters, mass flow controllers, and pressure controllers.
If you were to ask a software developer what the most exciting industry for software will be in the next five years, they might mention retail, or healthcare, entertainment or security, or perhaps Fintech, Edutech, or Agritech.
Over the past 50 years, the manufacturing industry has undergone a complete transformation with the introduction of automation and industrial robotics.
Julio Aleman, a Bioengineering PhD student needed two different microwell array system with individual wells that would support injection moulding of hydrogels and serve as “master moulds”
Pneumatic systems comprise a number of complex and interlinked components, which need comprehensive and careful tuning to run at their optimal performance. Needless to say, optimal performance is not always the norm.
Laser cutting is the process of using a laser beam to vaporize, melt, or otherwise gradually remove material. Computer Numerical Control (CNC) laser cutting commonly uses optics, an assist gas, and a guidance system to direct and focus the laser beam into the workpiece.
The FDM process creates plastic 3D models by superimposing multiple layers of melted thermoplastic polymer material into a predefined area via a computer controlled printing nozzle.
Whether you’re a 3D printing enthusiast who dreams about printing and sharing designs, or an engineer who’s familiar with mechanical or industrial design looking for new ways to use 3D design skills, these ideas will help you better understand how to get started with artistic design for 3D printing.
Typically, a lithophane is described as thin translucent porcelain that has been etched or carved with an image and is viewed when back lit with a light source.
