Error-based segmentation of cloud data for direct rapid prototyping
This paper proposes an error-based segmentation approach for direct rapid prototyping (RP) of random cloud data. The objective is to fully integrate reverse engineering and RP for rapid product development. By constructing an intermediate point-based curve model (IPCM), a layer-based RP model is directly generated from the cloud data and served as the input to the RP machine for fabrication. In...
متن کاملDirect Slicing of a Point Set Model for Rapid Prototyping
Recently point set model is getting increasing research attention in many geometric modeling application areas including computer graphics and CAD/CAM. This paper presents a novel approach to directly slicing point set model with the focus on making rapid prototyping part out of point set model without making any mesh or surface. Main challenge in handling point set model lies in how to interpr...
متن کاملA novel monolithic microactuator fabricated by 3D rapid direct manufacture
In this paper we present the world’s first micropump entirely fabricated using a 3D direct manufacture process based on microstereolithography. The device employs a single pneumatically actuated membrane, with flow rectification provided by a nozzle/diffuser arrangement. A maximum flow rate of just over 2,000 μl/min was achieved with a pneumatic pressure of 2 PSIG and a stroke rate of 96 Hz. Th...
متن کاملRapid-Prototyping of Rapid-Prototyping Machines
Fostering the spread of inexpensive, sustainable manufacturing processes and equipment empowers individuals and societies to create products which solve their particular challenges. We intend to advance that idea to its next logical step, offering not just the means of production, but also the mechanisms by which this empowerment can propagate and evolve. By creating rapid-prototyping machines ...
متن کاملRapid Prototyping of Rapid Prototyping Machines
Rapid prototyping tools empower individuals to create almost anything. Unfortunately, these tools are still far too expensive for personal ownership. The do-it-yourself community has responded with a slew of home-made rapid prototyping machines, but development times are slow because of the complexity of the necessary control system and the need to design the mechanical elements from scratch. T...
