How PolyJet Played a “Moving” Role in a Hollywood Movie Guillermo del Toro’s creative vision for his movie, Pinocchio, required a new style of puppet fabrication. The use of stop-motion animation required strict continuity for the mechanically-operated puppets, especially for the shapes and colors of Pinocchio’s nose, head and eyes. Fathom produced thousands of variations of these components using a versatile 3D printing technology called PolyJet. We also developed a workflow and quality-control process to ensure the continuity of their shapes and colors. This innovative solution enabled del Toro to reimagine this type of animation in a way that made the puppets more life-like. Read the case study now // https://lnkd.in/dHUsvRwg Bring Your Designs to Life with PolyJet // Many types of visual aids and models are made by hand using clay, screen printing, labels and other time-consuming and often expensive manual techniques. They can be produced much faster using PolyJet 3D printing https://lnkd.in/ghUFTxEV). Polyjet enables you to build incredibly detailed prototypes and models in a matter of hours that incorporate a variety of material properties and aesthetics: - By combining photopolymers in different concentrations and structures, PolyJet can simulate plastics, rubber and other materials. It can print textures and patterns that aren’t possible with any other 3D printing method. - It enables the production of highly accurate parts with different durometers, from rigid to rubber-like consistencies, multi-color, transparent and translucent materials – all in a single build! - It enables several materials to be printed simultaneously, simulating overmolding – but without costly tooling. What can YOU imagine and create with this versatile technology? Add more impact to your visual models with PolyJet!

It's Saturday, so maybe I've caught the "Saturday night fever" because I find myself watching 3D printers dance. Have you ever seen 3D printing like this? Most of us strive for the smoothest 3D prints possible, trying to hide those ugly print layers. On the other hand, Jasper Krebs, a designer from Copenhagen, thinks smooth prints are boring. He uses the #Rhino3D plugin for algorithmic design, #Grasshopper, to create amazing textures. Check out his Instagram feed at https://lnkd.in/e7fSkuCk where you'll find lampshades that utilize these textures to play with light. How creative. Have you ever considered this approach to FDM #3Dprinting ? What do you think of the result ?

How is 3D printing heralding the future of sculpture? 🖨️ 3D printing, especially Binder Jetting technology, is revolutionizing the foundry industry by enabling the creation of intricate and precise patterns for metal casting. Foundries uses PMMA powder and a binding agent to translate digital CAD files into intricate 3D printed designs layer by layer. These patterns are then used in traditional investment casting, allowing for precision and efficiency. This blend of modern technology with traditional methods is opening new horizons for artists and manufacturers alike, making monumental sculptures like "The Embrace" possible.

We are excited to share our latest project that pushes the boundaries of design! Our study combines computational design and 3D printing to create an innovative vision panel project. The result: a stunning desk lamp made entirely by 3D printing, with lightweight structures and integrated power lines. Computational design is a design method that uses a combination of algorithms and parameters to solve design problems and generate shapes. This allows us to create a variety of design options with complex geometries and structures and optimize them for 3D printing. Since we were initially unable to print the luminaire in one piece due to space limitations, we simply modified our 3D printer ourselves. We are particularly proud of the resulting lightweight structure. We designed the arm of the lamp to be not only flexible, but also strong enough to withstand everyday use. We learned a lot from this project: about making our own tools, about mechanics and leverage, but also about maintaining design control when working with computer-generated shapes. We now look forward to meeting curious customers who want to explore the possibilities of computer-aided design and 3D printing with us. #computationaldesign #3Dprinting #innovation #design

These days, when I think of turning product idea into a concept, it consists generally of these 4 steps: 1- Product research: This helps me better understand the product´s needs and what the customer really wants out of the prodct. Also helps me fully identify the problem the product is seeking to solve. 2- Brainstorming: This step involves exploring possible solutions for solving the problem identified above. 3- Conceptualising: Here the idea is brought to life via sketches, design calculations and 3d modeling. It is also at this phase where I get to deaw inspiration from similarly existing models and AI proposed designs. 4- Prototyping, where thanks to 3d printing, laser engravers and CNC technology, I get to produce physical test models to see how the concept performs under real life conditions. For a more detailed video on transforming a product idea into a product concept in 4 steps, check out my Youtube video : https://lnkd.in/e8sG6R8m on the 237 Maker channel. https://lnkd.in/ewmExpc3 #diy #productidea #productconcept #3dmodeling #the237maker
