3D printing can print almost anything you want to a 3D version. Thomas Jefferson writes a letter to George Wythe that states “ Has there ever been one lost since the art of printing has rendered it practicable to multiply and disperse copies? This leads us then to the only means of preserving those remains of our laws now under consideration, that is, a multiplication of printed copies.” It’s important because without the multiplication of printed copies books would have not been in the same condition as they are now. They would been eaten by bookworms, not taken care of, and if there is a fire they could have been burned and had been lost forever. 3D printing is possible because the printing press had already been invented.. 3D printing can help since a spray can be made in the 3D printer to kill the bookworms.Francis Bacon states “ The Printing Press has changed the appearance and state of the whole world,” ( Bacon, March…
Mass/ Volume: closed, independent, three dimensional form ––interpenetrable, completely surrounded by space –– volumetric materials include blocks of plaster, wood or stone. Sometimes mass refers to a positive solid and volume refers to a negative, open space surrounded by material, as in a bowl or other vessel.…
When the 3-D printing was first introduced it remained relatively unknown to the greater public. It wasn’t until the second decade of the 21st century that the 3-D technology became well known. The popularity of 3-D printing was mainly due to the mixture of U.S. government funding and a handful of commercial businesses who first made it popular. This combination created a new wave of extraordinary popularity around the idea of 3-D printing ever since. Nowadays, 3-D printing is extremely widespread and it’s used in various fields such as aviation, automotive, medical, and manufacturing.…
3D printing has caught the eye of many people in the world, with all different types of needs. 3D printing could change the world in so many possible ways. It could cure hunger, end homelessness, help people with diseases, help fix pollution, and may lower the demand for money. A 3D printer may also be used in health, to cure people of diseases, for transplants, and used as a prosthetic.…
The exemplary academic achievements of East Elementary are attributed to the stellar leadership of Mr. David Wiggins, Eds., who has served as the principal for the last ten years, as well as the high standards that the teachers place on learning. Diversified and strategic teaching strategies are common everyday tools that are utilized within almost every classroom at East Elementary. Also, teachers utilize a variety of technology that helps to supplement learning and reinforce concepts. Efforts to integrate and expose students to technology are evident in each classroom. Each class contains an LCD projector, smartboard, and smart camera. Also, teachers have access to laptop carts and iPad carts that can be rotated and shared amongst the…

The 3D object will spin 360 degrees to give people a view of every side of the object. The 3D printed object will have geometrical designs combined with combinations of intricate patterns that provide the artefact with some fine details. Furthermore, the websites and apps which were used will also be displayed so students can begin working on their own…

This report profiles the latest products as shown by major vendors at the SID Display Week 2013, and pinpoints market and product development trends of autostereoscopic 3D display devices.…
A 3D printer, “create(s) 3D items using specifications sent from modeling software…they can build an object a layer at a time from super-heated plastic or polycarbonate” . The first time I ever encountered 3D printing was this past summer, July 2013 to be specific. One of my colleagues had just finished his first year at York College and came home for the summer with new toys. Viktor was an engineering major who also had a fascination and obsessive hobby with cars and extreme sports. While at college, Viktor had taken a computing class in which he had to use a software that could translate 2D designs into 3D and then print them out.…

Are you ready to exchange your lab coat for a business suit? Many histotechologists have learned management skills on the job when they were promoted to a supervisory position by default. There is no time like the present to begin preparing yourself. The task will be much less daunting when a golden opportunity presents itself. Professional and personal preparations are essential. When a position becomes available and you will be ready to take the challenge and move to the next level; from bench tech to management.…
The LEGO Group are maintaining their competitive advantage through two main direction which are having more intelligence modular design and product introduction, such as new product line and having manufacturing process innovation that can reduce cost, shorten manufacturing cycle and improve the product quality. For manufacturing innovation LEGO are introducing new technology into their process. The project are called “The Next Generation Molding Platform” which contain two significant manufacturing technology, controlling molding process by electric drive machine and introducing new additive manufacturing method into molding.…
Rapid prototyping refers to a class of processes that enables physical realization of a shape without the use of any tooling or material removal. It automatically generates physical objects layer by layer, either depositing material or by changing the phase of material, directly from 3D CAD data. These "three dimensional printers" allow designers to quickly create tangible prototypes of their designs, rather than just two-dimensional pictures. They make excellent visual aids for communicating ideas with co-workers or customers. In addition, prototypes can be used for design testing. Designers have always utilized prototypes; RP allows them to be made faster and less expensively.…
