What is 3D Printing?
Definition:
> A process in which a machine uses a
computer aided design (CAD), a 3d
image or model, and builds a object by
progressively adding raw material
from the base up layer upon layer.

Manufacturing Applications (DDM)
Best fit when:
Relatively low volumes Short run production Bridge to tooling
High part complexity Eliminate expensive tooling Reduce long lead times
Aesthetics not critical Finishing processes feasible Physical properties acceptable

Typical Design Cycle
ClearVision’s Traditional
Prototyping
Total of 260 models produced
260 X 3 = 780 prototypes
Normal prototype quote is 4-6 weeks
If a product is late to market by 6 months, already
66% of its gross profit margins are lost.

Cost of Delay
ROI Analysis
Time Savings
> Go to market 10-12 weeks sooner
Dollar savings Yearly on 1 Model
> Supplier do less work and pass on savings
> If average list price is $50, sales increases could be a
minimum of $150,000 per model
> If we launch 100 new models per year, total revenue
realized sooner could be $15 million
$15 MILLION!
Introducing the Makerbot!
Makerbot Replicator 2
PLA (Poly Lactic Acid)
- Plant based bio-degradable plastic
- No heated build plate required
- No harsh smell or harmful fumes
- High speeds
- Smoother appearance
- More detail
ABS (Acrylonitrile
Butadiene Styrene)
- Petroleum based plastic
- Heated build plate
required
- Smells of plastic fumes
- Very sturdy and hard
- Suitable for machine or
car parts
- Longer lifespan
FDM Materials
Support Material - Not part of model
- Helps keep structure and shape while support building
- Sometimes easy to remove and sometimes not
Front facing down printing
• No face form
• Decreased build time
• No support material
90 minute build time
1 sec in video = 5 minute in build
It’s that easy!
Face Form Printing
• Longer build time
• Support material needed
• Very accurate
• Fits lens groove
• Prints functional printing
We aren’t just limited
to frames either!
And it’s fun!
Most importantly it sparks creativity!
Future for ClearVision in 3D Printing.
Short runs?
Custom eyewear?
Personalized Eyewear?
• Ready to upgrade machine
– Stratasys Objet 30
– Polyjet machine
– Higher quality prints and resolution
– Easy made functional prototypes
– Easy to remove support material
– Ability to print consumer ready products
Future for 3d printing in the optical industry
Much lower lead times
Faster to market
Secured IP
Completely customized and personalized eyewear
Patients and consumers become the designer and
maybe even manufacturers
Printed prescription lenses
Free designs available on internet
Test frames
Future Of 3D printing
Computers, toys, tools, all household items can come from your very own 3d printer!
