Cards in this deck (6)
- 1Why do designers use Rapid prototyping/3D Printing? (What are its advantages?)-To increase effective communication
-To decrease development time.
-To decrease costly mistakes.
-To minimize engineering changes - 2What are the TWO types of Rapid prototyping/3D Printing?-Stereolithography
-Selective laser sintering - 3Describe StereolithographyAllows 3D CAD drawings to be created in a matter of hours. The image is created on a compute, then printed out as a 3D form.
- 4What are the advantages of Stereolithography?-Quick
-Cheap
-Easy - 5Describe Selective Laser Sintering3D CAD drawings are created. Works by thin layers of powder being sintered together (melted) by a laser beam. Thousands of layers eventually make up the final product.
- 6What are the advantages of Selective Laser Sintering?-Can be done with a variety
of materials
-Quick Process
