3D-Printing Innovations with FDM teaches fundamental and advanced 3D printing techniques using Rhinoceros 3D and Grasshopper
2 courses5.0
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.
Revolutionizing Design: Leveraging 3D Printing for Innovative Creations
Practical Skills: Designing Small-Scale Interior Objects in Rhino and Grasshopper
Precision Control: Generating Custom Toolpaths and G-Codes for 3D Printing
Exploring Materials: Fine-Tuning Parameters in Slicing Software like Cura
Confidence in Creation: Tackling Design Challenges with Advanced 3D Printing Techniques
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.
What you should already know or have ready before you start, experience, tools, and any baseline skills the instructors expect. Scan the list below so nothing catches you off guard.
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.
If you plan to print during the workshop, here is a list of materials we will be using in addition to your 3D printer:
