AGENDA
• Technology • Methods • Users • Communities • Robohand • Opportunities • Risks
PRINT YOUR LIFE - 3D DRUCKEN HEUTE UND MORGEN 26.06.2013
TECHNOLOGY
• First use cases: high-end industry • Fast method to generate prototypes • Rapid prototyping
Rapid tooling Rapid manufacturing
• Addition to traditional manufacturing methods (like drilling, milling, mold injection,…)
• New materials will add more use cases
Applications
METHODS
FDM - Fused Deposition Modeling
METHODS

USERS
Example: Design
• Polygon Prototyping (Rhino and Grasshopper)
• Algorithm automatically creates geometry base knots
• 3D-printing can be combined with traditional types of manufacturing

COMMUNITIES
• Database to share designs • More than 140.000 things • Available for all 3D printers • Control of usage and rights

Example: Thingiverse
ROBOHAND
• Complete Model of a simple prothesis downloadable
• Variable in size • Available for all 3D-printers • Assembly plan included
DIY Prothesis
ROBOHAND
• Print time: 4 hours per set • Print cost: approx. 4€ • Great opportunity to help,
donate and change things • 25.000 MakerBot printers
could easily print 25.000 ROBOHANDS daily
DIY Prothesis
ROBOHAND
• Perfect example for collaborative design and decentralized manufacturing
• Influence of people without capital and huge fabrication facilities is growing
• Production is shifting
DIY Prothesis
CHANCES
• Low cost and investment • Reduction of energy and material demand • Almost unlimted availablility (everywhere/always) • Small installation and training effort • Simple Handling • Small environmental foot print
(biogradeable material, less transportation, storage and noise)
Industry, Innovators, Makers
RISKS
• Quality and regulations (TÜV, CE, …) • Piracy, Copyright abuse • Competition between companies and individuals • Overestimation of hypes and trends • Underestimation of material cost and neccessary skills • Wrong estimate of breakeven points
