...Montella 3D Printing in the Medical Field And in Education Jared Berrett 12/1/13 How do 3D printers work? There were a lot of choices to choose from since 3D printing as expanded over the years. As I was looking into 3D printing to see what a good topic would be to expand on, I came across 3D printing in the dental field and in education. 3D printing in the medical field has expanded a whole lot. We can now make bones and some tissue. 3D printing can be used for several things, but I decided to specifically talk about 3d printing in the dental field and in education. First I’m going to talk about and explain why 3d printing is going to be useful in schooling and in the future schooling. Then I’m going to talk and explain some of the bad effects people see on 3d printing. Then I’m going to explain how it is useful in the medical field and how the doctors can improve on using this tool that is now out there. Then lastly I’m going to explain why 3d printing is such a good new technology that we all need to learn how to use and use one for good. How do 3D printers work? They work like inkjet printers, but instead of ink they use plastic. The machine uses ABS plastic, the same as LEGOS. So the first thing is 3d printing in school. Kids these days are going to have a lot of opportunity to learn in the field and be able to have hands on with their learning and such. I read in an article that said “Project difficulty can be tailored to a Student’s abilities and interests, so 3D printing...

...What is 3D printing? 3D printing or additive manufacturing is a process of making three dimensional solid objects from a digital file. The creation of a 3D printed object is achieved using additive processes. In an additive process an object is created by laying down successive layers of material until the entire object is created. Each of these layers can be seen as a thinly sliced horizontal cross-section of the eventual object. How does 3D printing work? It all starts with making a virtual design of the object you want to create. This virtual design is made in a CAD (Computer Aided Design) file using a 3D modeling program (for the creation of a totally new object) or with the use of a 3D scanner (to copy an existing object). A 3D scanner makes a 3D digital copy of an object. 3d scanners use different technologies to generate a 3d model such as time-of-flight, structured / modulated light, volumetric scanning and many more. Recently, many IT companies like Microsoft and Google enabled their hardware to perform 3d scanning, a great example is Microsoft’s Kinect. This is a clear sign that future hand-held devices like smartphones will have integrated 3d scanners. Digitizing real objects into 3d models will become as easy as taking a picture. Prices of 3d scanners range from very expensive professional industrial devices to 30 USD DIY devices anyone can make at home. Processes and technologies Not all 3D printers use the same technology. There are several ways to print and...

...Monday, October 14, 2013 Figure 1: The First 3D Printer Figure 1: The First 3D Printer Over the past decades, there has been a non-stop technological revolution. Every day there are new discoveries and inventions in different regions of the world. Humans have landed on the moon, discovered galaxies and stars, found cures for some deadly diseases and also invented equipment such as vehicles, airplanes, computers and many others to facilitate their lives. But one invention that might have the edge over the aforementioned inventions is the 3D printer. During 1984, Charles W. Hull of 3D Systems Corp designed the first ever working printer (Figure 1). But it was until 1990 that this invention started to gain importance. This was the beginning of an outbreak in this field. From that year on, scientists and innovators have worked on developing 3D printers and have been able to do so. Now, there are different kinds of 3D printers with different functions. Some of these printers are specialized in producing food, while other printers can print different kinds of objects; from decoration objects to synthetic body organs (PCMag.com, February 2012). 3D printing is a prototyping process where a 3D design is used to create real objects. The 3D-model is saved in STL (Stereo Lithography) format, which is a file format related to 3D geometric shapes in computers, and sent to a 3D printer to be printed (Rapidtoday.com, 2009). The printing process takes place by producing the desired design...

These principles mainly involved producing tangible, three dimensional forms and later transformed into physical products through a printing device. Prices for these devices varied from as low as $10000 or less to as high as $700000 for large complex systems. FormPrint was an early entrant into the 3D printing industry. It primarily focused on healthcare industry with products for Dental, Auditory and Orthopaedic usage. #D printing industry had a worldwide market of about $2.25 Billion in 2012 and would reach $3 Billion within one year with a y-o-y growth of 33%. The Company has been basing its value proposition and approach on selling best-in-class product performance at premium prices. Also, FormPrint was known for selling products with high quality and with technical sophistication at premium prices. The company had sales of $42.9 million by the year 2013. FormPrint predicted that out of $235 million of the global 3D printing market $176 million was to be coming from US market which contributed to 75% of the total market in healthcare. Another observation was that non-hospital market and low-priced medical items would be of prime importance in the days to come.

...first RP technique, Stereolithography, was developed by 3D Systems of Valencia, CA, USA. The company was founded in 1986, and since then, a number of different RP techniques have become available. Rapid Prototyping has also been referred to as solid free-form manufacturing; computer automated manufacturing, and layered manufacturing. RP has obvious use as a vehicle for visualization. In addition, RP models can be used for testing, such as when an airfoil shape is put into a wind tunnel. RP models can be used to create male models for tooling, such as silicone rubber molds and investment casts. In some cases, the RP part can be the final part, but typically the RP material is not strong or accurate enough. When the RP material is suitable, highly convoluted shapes (including parts nested within parts) can be produced because of the nature of RP. Fig 1. Rapid prototyping worldwide There is a multitude of experimental RP methodologies either in development or used by small groups of individuals. They are listed as given below. Stereolithography (SLA) Selective Laser Sintering (SLS®) Laminated Object Manufacturing (LOM™) Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) Solid Ground Curing (SGC) Ink Jet printing techniques 1.2 Stereolithography The term stereolithography was coined in 1986 by Charles W.

...Terry Little’s Management Plan Terry Little’s Management Plan Project Manager at the Joint Air-to-Surface Standoff Missile (JASSM) program, Terry Little was a great pioneer in the Department of Defense’s (DoD) acquisition reform and streamlining efforts. Mr. Little’s performance dramatically reduced cost and the acquisition time. The result of this acquisition, government was able to save more than $960 million (in 1995 dollars) in fixed costs over JASSM's production period. (Bower, 2000) The case study of this acquisition, “Developing a Missile: The Power of Autonomy and Learning “outlines of Mr. Little’s management approach to develop collaborative relationships between the various parties and focus on the specific goals of the project. Given the unsuccessful history of missile development programs within the DOD there is now no room for adjustments to the time, budget and performance requirements. Vision Statement for the Team project Vision Statement We intend to pursue alternate methods and approaches to facilitate faster and more cost effective procurement proses for this DOD contract. We will manage and define the client’s expectations to ensure the performance specifications fit within their parameters of the pre-determined time and budget. Contractors will be engaged throughout the whole process, for us to gain an understanding of what is possible and encourage them to peruse whatever alternate technology’s means and methods that they see fit to meet the...
