What kind of gadget? 3D printer”
07/06/2016
Once the great Michelangelo, when asked how he creates his sculptures, replied: “I take a stone and cut off everything superfluous.” This principle is followed by many modern industries, converting materials into tons of shavings, sawdust and other waste. But there is another approach, akin to pottery - when, in fact, there is no waste, which makes production cheaper, more environmentally friendly and more accessible. 3D printers are just the technical embodiment of this approach. nine0003
What is a 3D printer and how does it work?
A 3D printer is a device that allows you to create objects with the same ease with which conventional printers print text.
Of course, the speed of printing objects is significantly different from the speed of printing text - a modern printer will print one sheet in a fraction of a minute, and it will take several hours for an object. But hand-crafting the same item will also take more than a couple of minutes, and even an appropriate level of skill. And the 3D printer will do everything on its own, so that the freed up time can be usefully spent on other things. In fact, such a printer can be called a universal factory on your desk. nine0003
There are several basic technologies for printing objects. One involves the use of lasers, which crystallize the desired structure layer by layer from a special polymer. After the formation of the layer, a special clamp slightly lifts the object from the polymer bath and the next layer crystallizes. The process, in terms of entertainment, resembles the transformation of a liquid metal robot from Terminator 2. Although this technology is still at the development stage, it is already the fastest way to 3D print.
However, it is also the most expensive one. Lasers, special polymers - all this is very expensive. Although now there are models that use LCD displays instead of a laser, and the price for them is more reasonable. nine0003
The second way is a little cheaper. Lasers are also used here (some artisanal implementations work with solar energy to print glass vases). In this option, a container with a powder filler is used. The laser sinters one layer of material, after which the next layer of powder is added and leveled, and the laser passes over it again. As a result, as the capacity is filled, the required object is formed. Upon completion of printing, it is pulled out and cleaned, and the remaining powdered material is reused. Such models are more often used in industrial solutions, as they are rather bulky (due to deep capacitance). nine0039
The third and most common type of 3D printer creates objects layer by layer by depositing molten material onto a print bed.
Consumables in them usually come in the form of bays or bars. They are wound at one end into the print head, where the heating element is located. The molten material is fed through the extruder at the same speed, which guarantees the uniformity of each applied layer. The thinner the layers, the more precise and smoother the surface of the printed object will be. Most often, there are models with a single extruder, which allow you to print only one material at a time. But there are also devices with a large number of extruders, which make it possible to obtain not only objects of complex shapes, but also combining various materials. These are the slowest of the 3D printers, but also the most common, as they take up minimal space and do not require any special conditions. This technology is so simple that even a 3D pen printer was developed on its basis, allowing you to quickly and easily create small crafts and models. And at the same time, it is the most versatile – both solutions for printing buildings and bioprinters for printing internal organs have been created on its basis.
nine0003
What is a 3D printer for?
The applications for 3D printers are varied. These devices, in addition to plastics, have mastered printing with metal, wood and mixed materials. Therefore, they are used not only for prototyping and various household trifles, but also for creating jewelry, dishes, art objects, mechanisms and many other things, up to parts of rocket engines. But this is the general case. At home, a 3D printer is useful for replacing broken parts of various devices - handles, gears, housings. It will allow you to forget about looking for a suitable smartphone stand or flower vase. The child will be able to supplement his homework with a visual embodiment of various geometric objects or chemical elements. And for fun, he will be able to print himself a designer, funny decorations for a doll, and even figures of cartoon characters or classmates. You can have fun yourself, testing your ideas in practice and creating designs that have never been seen before.
nine0039
You can create everything yourself, or you can use the developments of other users. A lot of communities have formed around 3D printers, in which there is an exchange of recommendations, ideas and ready-made 3D models for printing. So if you got a printer and don’t know what to create, you can peep a couple of interesting ideas in them.
Which 3D printer models are on the market?
In the field of 3D printers, there is a division into open and closed systems. Openness implies the availability on the network of all circuitry, drawings, files for printing and instructions for creating and assembling your own printer. In fact, you can assemble it yourself from improvised materials, and then print another one for your friend. At the same time, the software of such systems is available in open source. The most popular and proven open system is RepRap printers. There are many models in this system. Some are assembled almost entirely from snap-on printed parts, some are geared towards miniature crafts, and some are geared towards large objects.
But all of them are united by an open design, as well as the ability to improve and upgrade the device in the future. So, choosing an open system, you get not only a device for printing, but also a hobby for constantly improving your 3D assistant. nine0003
There are no less closed systems. They are more focused not on enthusiasts, but on end users. The issues of modernization and updating in them lie entirely with the manufacturer, and if he does not want to develop your model, but releases a completely new model, then you will have to come to terms with the fact that the device is outdated. At the same time, commercial systems have external and internal completeness - in terms of the quality of the case design, they are no worse than other household appliances. There are devices of various brands on the market: Leapfrog, Makerbot, 3DSystems, Mankati, Ultimaker, FlashForge, XYZprinting, Malyan and others. Among them there are both small models for crafts no more than centimeters in size, and monsters capable of printing objects with a side of up to half a meter, or even a meter.
