Course Details
• Fundamentals of 3D Printing: An introduction to 3D printing technology, materials, and processes. This unit covers the basics of 3D printing, including its history, benefits, and limitations. It also explores different 3D printing techniques, such as Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM), Stereolithography (SLA), and Selective Laser Sintering (SLS).
• 3D Scanning for Repair: This unit introduces 3D scanning technology and its application in repair methods. Students will learn how to use 3D scanners to capture the geometry of damaged or broken objects, and how to convert the scanned data into a 3D model that can be repaired using 3D printing technology.
• Designing for 3D Printing Repair: This unit covers the principles of designing for 3D printing repair. Students will learn how to modify 3D models to repair damaged or broken objects, including techniques for adding supports, reinforcing weak areas, and ensuring a successful print.
• Materials for 3D Printing Repair: This unit explores the different materials used in 3D printing repair, including plastics, metals, and ceramics. Students will learn about the properties of these materials, their advantages and limitations, and how to choose the right material for a particular repair job.
• 3D Printing Processes for Repair: This unit covers the different 3D printing processes used in repair, including the settings and parameters that can affect the quality of the print. Students will learn how to prepare a 3D model for printing, how to set up the 3D printer, and how to monitor the print process to ensure a successful repair.
• Post-Processing Techniques for 3D Printing Repair: This unit explores the post-processing techniques used to finish 3D printed repairs. Students will learn how to remove support structures, smooth surfaces, and apply finishes to improve the appearance and durability of the repaired object.
