3D-Printing Innovations with FDM teaches fundamental and advanced 3D printing techniques using Rhinoceros 3D and Grasshopper
3D printing technology has revolutionized design and fabrication, offering a shortcut to turning digital designs into physical objects. This workshop aims to empower you with the skills to push the boundaries of this technology, enabling you to create innovative and unique designs.
The workshop will combine presentations, tutorials, and hands-on exercises with live – printing sessions. Participants will apply the concepts learned through practical design exercises, focusing on small-scale interior design objects (up to 10 cm / 4 inches) to ensure feasible printing times.A typical workflow will involve generating a base geometry, creating a custom toolpath for the object, and defining parameters for the 3D printing process in Rhino and Grasshopper.
Throughout this workshop, you’ll quickly learn the basics of 3D printing, including different materials and essential parameters, followed by extensive manipulation of these parameters. We’ll go beyond the default settings of slicing software by generating custom G-Codes with Grasshopper. You’ll be able to experiment with and optimize the printing process to suit your creative needs.
This workshop is suitable for everyone, from 3D printing newbies to enthusiasts looking to deepen their knowledge.
The introductory session on 3D printing will ensure all participants start on the same level before diving into the more advanced sessions.
Access to an FDM 3D printer is not required, but it is highly appreciated.
