3D Printing
3D Printing
3D Printing has been around since the 1980s yet was only formally introduced in 2010 as technology has been increasing we now have technology to print houses! How cool is that?! 3D printing is also called additive manufacturing. Just think they can print 1000 houses in 2 years.
3D printing was invented by Charles Hull but the idea of 3D Printing was patented in 1993 by MIT professors Michael Cima the Sumitomo Electric Industries Professor of Engineering, Emanuel Sachs the Fred Fort Flowers and Daniel Professor of Mechanical Engineering. There are multiple ways of 3D printing the first way is to pool together chemicals that solidify when hit with ultra violet rays. The second way would be using molten ink or even chocolate it becomes a solid when it emerges from the printer head then a laser comes and cuts the design out of the molten ink or CHOCOLATE because everybody loves chocolate. Which would you prefer.
Functional organs can now be printed using the patient's cell so the the organ isn’t rejected by the body. They can print stronger bones using the the opposite bone and just flipping the image. They can even print out movable prosthetics but the user would have no control over it because there would be no nerves connecting it together.
They can now 3D print gun parts which just need to be assembled and ready to use. Based out of Austin, Texas the 3D-printed metal pistol made by Solid Concepts is based on the Browning 1911 firearm. To make the gun, Solid Concepts utilized a manufacturing process known as direct metal laser sintering or DMLS. DMLS is a 3D manufacturing process used to make metal parts for the aerospace and medical companies.
They are also able to print metal and their compounds. What has the world come to am i right or am i right. What can’t we print is the question that we should be asking. The metals that they can print so far are Stainless Steel, Matte Bronze, Polished Bronze, Matte Black, Polished Grey, Matte Gold, Polished Gold and Polished Nickel. Soon we’ll be able to print anything we want then what is going to happen to the world. Well first in order to obtain metal they have to dig up the ore and smelt and form it the they use the recycled metal to smelt it and form it again and again and again.That costs way too much money and causes Global Warming or Climate Change or whatever you want to call it. So when they print the ore it helps with the environment and is cost effective so everyone ends up happy.
In Shanghai they were able to guess what print houses. They accomplished 10 houses in a full day. 10 houses this brings me back to my former point soon we can print 1000 houses in just 2 years. They were printing it with full of concrete and metal and wood. How cool but scary at the same time is that? So this means that if you want to buy a house it will be printed and totally safe for 10 years apparently. What has our world come to anyway Have a Great Day
