By

Objective3D ran the first of the seminar series planned for 2015 with impressive attendance at both the Melbourne and Sydney seminars.
 

With a full house and an International line up, guests at the Sydney and Melbourne Direct Digital Manufacturing (DDM) seminars were treated to a wealth of information from professionals across all facets of the Additive Manufacturing industry. 

The focus of this first series was how 3D Printers can augment and accelerate traditional manufacturing processes and production. Bender Kutub, Applications Engineer for Stratasys USA, shared his experience as a Mechanical Engineer with a strong focus on the analysis and design of composite materials and structures. His proficiency in testing and manufacturing of composites brought a unique perspective to the role 3D printing can play in most industries and manufacturing sectors. His main interest in Aerospace and Automotive applications of Additive Manufacturing also showcased the durability and high performance capabilities of 3D Printing technologies.

Other topics covered included leasing arrangements, Government Grants for Research and Development, as well as the capabilities and unique services offered by Objective3D parts, our 3D Printing division.  Melbourne guests were also treated to a tour of our World Class facility and 3D Printing bureau. 

DATES FOR THE DIARY:

More seminars are planned throughout the year:

June 2015 - SA and WA

July 2015 - Vic and NSW

Delivering High Quantities of Prototypes Fast

By
Objective3D Direct Manufacturing produces parts using a range of additive and conventional manufacturing technologies. We offer tailored solutions for your project’s needs. If your project requires larger quantities of small parts – fast, Laser Sintering is the best technological solution for you. Per-part pricing is reduced as quantities increase, but there are more advantages to using Laser Sintering for small prototypes than price alone. Laser Sintering (LS) provides strong, versatile and geometrically intricate components made from filled and un-filled nylon materials that are ideal for fit and form verification and functional testing. Prototypes made with LS are created quickly and offer robust solutions for your project. FAST Delivery Laser Sintering can provide sturdy, functional prototypes as little as 24 hours. Multi-component designs can be incorporated into single structures, allowing engineers to produce complex features and geometries in one print, and elim

How Artec Space Spider helps measure the shape-shifting of birds in response to climate change.

By
Challenge:  In the past century, researchers have been studying a variety of birds in Australia to see how their bodies have changed as a result of global warming in order to determine how to adjust. In order to document the exact dimensions of thousands of beaks of 86 different species of birds in museums in a fast, accurate, and convenient manner, they needed a fast, accurate, and convenient method. Solution: Artec Space Spider, Artec Studio Results: By using the handheld 3D scanner Artec Space Spider, each bird can be scanned in submillimeter colour 3D in approximately two minutes. This makes it easy to scan anywhere from 30-50 birds in one museum visit. Scan processing takes just under six minutes for each bird.

3D scanning and reverse engineering streamline original furniture design and production

By
MU Form Furniture Design is an Oakland-based company that designs, manufactures and distributes furniture products for the modern home and business. The company is never short of orders since good and original design is sought after by architects and interior designers. The main material MU Form works with is high-quality bent ply, which is one of the most widely used materials in this industry due to its ability to create a variety of shapes for chairs, stools, and tables. The company’s specialists seek to create great designs that pose a challenge for other manufacturers to copy or replicate.
