  • In the late 1990's implementation of CAD/CAM systems in 3D printer has been led to many changes in the jewelry industry. Low cost 3D printer has been started advertising in the jewelry in 2009 after expiration of key patents of FDM scheme. Mass jewelry production process will vary in appliance with direct production process of 3D printer production line. The studies presented in this variation is the jewelry manufacturing process using a 3D Printer and the different metals with different colors were also produced for bonding the prototype jewelry. Increasing the possibilities of 3D printer through them, presents a variety of jewelry mass production methods.

  • Thermal flows inside a laser printer are affected by generated heat from a fuser and boards. Thus, the effect of fans has been investigated to control the thermal flows and behaviors of toners. In order to analyze the phenomena experimentally, a PIV (Particle Image Velocimetry) has been used, and then the flow inside the printer has been predicted by the CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) in this study to determine the efficient flow distribution by an optimum design of the printer. The determined optimum design has been confirmed by the developed PIV technique so that the efficiency of the laser printer can be improved by the proposed design.

  • 3D printing is a technology that converts a computer-generated 3D model into a real object with additive manufacturing technology. A majority of 3D printing technologies uses one material, and this is considered a limitation. In this study, we developed a multi-material 3D printer by adopting dual resin vat and cleaning system with DLP (Digital Light Processing) 3D printing technology. The developed multi-material DLP 3D printer is composed of a manufacturing system, cleaning system, transporting system, and automatic resin recharging system. Various 3D structures were 3D printed with two materials, thus demonstrating the potential. Printing performance of the multi-material DLP 3D printer was studied by performing a comparative surface roughness test and tension test on specimens composed of one material as well as those composed of two materials.

  • This paper describes design techniques of general purpose thermal array printer, especially easily applicable to medical measurement equipment. The'general'means that the proposed thermal array printer can be applied to not only medical field but other industrial field by establishing the eligible protocol. The thermal array printer is composed of i)MPU and its peripherals ii)printer head control, iii)diverse protection circuits, and iv)serial communication. In this paper the performance of the proposed thermal array printer was evaluated by applying to an 3 channel electrocardiogram recorder. The propped system can support'Hangul'text as well as alphanumeric characters and any bitmap image.

  • This paper presents the development of a 3D printer based piezo-driven vertical micro-positioning stage. The stage consists of two flexure bridge structures which amplify and transfer the horizontal motion of the piezo-element into vertical motion of the end-effector. The stage is fabricated with ABS material using a precision 3D printer. This enables a one-body design eliminating the need for assembly, and significantly increases the freedom in design while shortening fabrication time. The design of the stage was optimized using response surface analysis method. Experimental results are presented which demonstrate 100nm stepping in the vertical out-of-plane direction. The results demonstrate the future possibilities of applying 3D printers and ABS material in fabricating linear driven motion stages.

  • Nevertheless 3D printer is propagated fast, it is difficult for us of using 3D printer at the same time because of 3D printer's slow velocity. Existing solution is to print using SD card which moves files and on PC but this method is spend too much time and can not be showed status of printing. Yet we have no 3D printer software solution which is controlled and printed remotely. Therefore, this 3D printer software solution makes 3D printer be connected on internet networks and selected to use it on smart App. And it is controlled and printed remotely. In my paper, to build an Android App. which can execute these functions, an effective analysis & design using UML and implementation method will be presented.

  • The development of the industrial revolution can confirm the paradigm of manufacturing is changing from the mass production of small varieties to the form of small-scale production of many varieties. That is a form that can reduce the burden of indiscriminate raising of producers and a change in the industrial form that seeks to make up for the problems of the productivity portion that should change as modern society develops. Looking at the 3D printing environment, there are many problems in reaching the final stage of printing. The problem is not just the low-cost, low-end 3D Pirnter, but the high-priced 3D Printers released as finished products also show the same symptoms. This can cause anxiety factors in the printing process. Therefore, the research was conducted to compensate such problems. Based on the research, we propose the design of IoT beacon-based 3D Printer remote safety and quality control system targeting 3D Printer individual users.

  • In recent years the industry has utilized some of the 3D printers in the manufacturing process a trend which spread also a personal desktop 3D printer priced. The 3D printer can create the 3D object by using an ink or a laser instead of the powders, and various liquid plastic material. Properties of 3D printers are liquid, solid, powder and raw materials are also classified as varied. New ideas and processes in the form of designer furniture, becoming increasingly evolved through the development of materials and technologies. Science, art and technology combine to create a new aesthetic for the complex and free binding structure is a combination of design and materials are available in craft and the structure appears not showing. 3D scanning was not simply continue to develop as the production process by a variety of tools and content transformation. Create new mathematical tables and chairs designed by the theory fit the digital age shows a coupling structure with decoration into small pieces. It has created a new craft technique in the digital age.
