High-Efficiency Solar-Powered 3-D Printers for Sustainable Development
The release of the open source 3-D printer known as the RepRap (a self-Replicating Rapid prototyper) resulted in the potential for distributed manufacturing of products for significantly lower costs than conventional manufacturing. This development, coupled with open source-appropriate technology (OSAT), has enabled the opportunity for 3-D printers to be used for sustainable development. In thi...
متن کاملOpen-Source Automated Mapping Four-Point Probe
Scientists have begun using self-replicating rapid prototyper (RepRap) 3-D printers to manufacture open source digital designs of scientific equipment. This approach is refined here to develop a novel instrument capable of performing automated large-area four-point probe measurements. The designs for conversion of a RepRap 3-D printer to a 2-D open source four-point probe (OS4PP) measurement de...
متن کاملAdditive manufacturing with RepRap methodology: current situation and future prospects
In February 2004, Adrian Bowyer, from the University of Bath, began an open initiative called RepRap, with the purpose of creating an open source rapid prototyping machine which, moreover, could replicate itself. This article analizes the current status of the RepRap initiative, commenting the basic components of RepRap machines, the differences between the different 3D printers developed by th...
متن کاملPossibility of reconstruction of dental plaster cast from 3D digital study models
OBJECTIVES To compare traditional plaster casts, digital models and 3D printed copies of dental plaster casts based on various criteria. To determine whether 3D printed copies obtained using open source system RepRap can replace traditional plaster casts in dental practice. To compare and contrast the qualities of two possible 3D printing options--source system RepRap and commercially available...
متن کاملLightweight Semantic Prototyper for Conceptual Modeling
While much research work was devoted to conceptual model quality validation techniques, most of the existing tools in this domain focus on syntactic quality. Tool support for checking semantic quality (correspondence between the conceptual model and requirements of a domain to be engineered) is largely lacking. This work introduces a lightweight model-driven semantic prototyper to test/validate...
