3-D printing is a new technology that shows great promise, but also requires new guidelines. Add to Google Reader · View RSS Feed. As you may have guessed, lawmakers are already working on legislation to ban the technology, though it is unclear if they intend to ban just the production of 3-D printed firearms, or the printers themselves, which are available “Security checkpoints, background checks and gun regulations will do little good if criminals can print their own plastic firearms at home and bring those firearms through metal detectors with no one the wiser,” Israel said in a statement. The process can produce items with very high fidelity and strength, compared with the more common fused deposition modelling process (FDM), often used in desktop 3D printers, where a filament of plastic is extruded to build up a model in layers. Additive manufacturing, sometimes called 3D printing, is a high-growth, emerging market that's creating lots of buzz among industry, creative, and do-it-yourself enthusiasts. Makies are manufactured using a 3D printing technology called selective laser sintering (SLS), in which a laser fuses together particles of nylon powder to form the individual parts. And like so many technologies, they're only going to get better – and cheaper. Designing with Plastics book download. Instead of ink, it uses materials such as liquid plastic or powder as we saw in the above video. My second point from the previous discussion, you can already make your own weapon. In the cases of both disk drives and laser printers, tremendous advances in technology, materials, and manufacturing resulted in big, heavy and very expensive mechanical devices being made mush smaller, much cheaper, and even more capable. Design were using it to make action figures in their own likenesses. Printing in Plastic : Build Your Own 3D Printer (Technology in Action . Download Designing with Plastics Design a part using a modeling tool such as Google SketchUp. And there are cubbies full of odd-shaped plastic sculptures, including some chess pieces that are products of the lab's 3D printer. Because the HaveBlue, and a guy named turomar, working from the summer until about October, definitely proved that you can print and build these and basically put as much .22 through them as you want. For anyone who has ever had to assemble IKEA furniture, that might not be very reassuring but if you're not sure you could hack it, here is a picture a little kid making his own toy shop using a 3D printer: We may need a few more years before we can 3D print a house but make no mistake, this is a technological revolution poised to alter the way businesses do business. Personal 3D printers are already available for non-outrageous prices. On July 1, engineer Michael “HaveBlue” Guslick reported having assembled a working AR-15 from spare parts and a fully 3D-printed plastic lower receiver. We don't have plastics, let alone 3-d printable plastics, that are any damn good for making barrels or bolts or firing pins. The Cube, a personal 3D printer from 3D Systems, Inc. Analysts In contrast, additive manufacturing is just that—it builds an object, in three dimensions, by laying down micro-thin sheets of material, usually a liquid resin or plastic material, just as ink does in your desktop printer.
