Large Metal Casting Patterns Produced 33% Faster Teignbridge uses a BigRep ONE large-scale industrial 3D printer for propeller production. The BigRep ONE 3D printer is used to 3D print a full-size replica of the designed propeller to be the positive pattern for the cast mold.
PLA vs. ABS Filament and More – Choose the Right Material PLA and ABS are the most commonly used filaments out there. But which one should you pick? And are there other filament options for your application?
3D Printed Auto Interior Design and Manufacturing “This ‘73 Bronco console, we 3D printed with our in-house BigRep 3D printer. This is by far the largest print we have tried and couldn’t have been happier with the results.”
Design for Industrial Additive Manufacturing: Eliminating Support Structures Optimizing designs is a crucial skill to create manufacturing efficiencies. To get the most out of your additive manufacturing system, or the least in terms of time and material, you need to understand the nuances of your 3D printer and how it differs from other manufacturing technologies.
Integrating CAD and Additive Learning into General Education Digital design and manufacturing has become increasingly relevant in an eclectic mix of industries. In dentistry, fashion, manufacturing or any industry that has evolved with the integration of 3D printing, it’s clear that an understanding of additive manufacturing and the skills to create 3D printable designs is increasingly relevant.
HOW TO: 3 Steps to Hide the Seams and Become Design Leader If one has a good knowledge of slicing software, they can reach a higher quality of the printed object. That naturally influences the general outlook of the one. Important aspect of the final print are the seams. They might spoil the effect of the design.
A Sense for Structure: NOWlab’s World-First ‘Smart Concrete Wall’ We were thrilled to announce news of the world’s first ‘smart concrete wall’ via a recent article on designboom.
Webinar Recap: Revolutionizing Architecture and Construction with 3D Printed Formwork June 26 marks an important day for BigRep history as we aired our very first webinar on 3D printing and its emerging role in construction and architecture.
June Webinar Approaching! 3D Printing in Architecture and Construction BigRep is coming to your very own computer screen – we’re pleased to invite individals and companies with an interest in 3D printing, architecture or construction to join our free expert webinar on June 26 2018, at 2PM EDT (Boston, Toronto) and 2PM CET (Berlin, Paris).
Lean on PVA, When You Need Support Many of us wish our worldly worries could just dissolve away, but it never seems to work that way. Though if it’s about support structures for large-scale 3D objects, then BigRep’s PVA is the cure for all concerns.
