IMAGINARY Math Exhibition using Low-cost 3D Printers
We have made an attempt to reproduce 17 objects of the IMAGINARY Open Mathematics Exhibition (www.imaginary.org) using low-cost, desktop 3D printers. The IMAGINARY open math is an international project by the Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach in Germany and includes galleries of volumetric objects that are unique, have aesthetic appeal and mathematical meaning. We illustrate here th...
متن کاملTundish Nozzle Clogging – Application of Computational Models
Clogging of the tundish nozzle is a major castability problem in continuous casting of steel for several reasons. Firstly, clogging increases the frequency of operation disruptions to change nozzles or tundishes or even to stop casting. These extra transitions increase operating cost, decrease productivity, and lower quality. Secondly, clogging can lead directly to a variety of quality problems...
متن کاملInexpensive Piezoelectric Elements for Nozzle Contact Detection and Bed Levelling in FFF 3D Printers
Inexpensive piezoelectric diaphragms can be used as sensors to facilitate both nozzle 1 height setting and bed levelling in FFF (Fused Filament Fabrication) 3D printers. A variety of probes 2 have been developed by the authors and others to utilize piezoelectric diaphragms both under the 3 build stage and in the printer head. The reliability, repeatability and sensitivity of these probes has 4 ...
متن کاملTunable Digital Material Properties for 3d Voxel Printers
Digital materials are composed of many discrete voxels placed in a massively parallel layer deposition process, as opposed to continuous (analog) deposition techniques. We explore the material properties attainable using a voxel-based freeform fabrication process and simulate how the properties can be tuned for a wide range of applications. By varying the precision, geometry, and material of th...
متن کاملInexpensive Piezoelectric Elements for Nozzle Contact Detection and Build Platform Leveling in FFF 3D Printers
Inexpensive piezoelectric diaphragms can be used as sensors to facilitate both nozzle 1 height setting and build platform leveling in FFF (Fused Filament Fabrication) 3D printers. Tests 2 simulating nozzle contact are conducted to establish the available output and an output of greater 3 than 8 Volts found at 20oC, a value which is readily detectable by simple electronic circuits. Tests 4 are a...
