How to 3D Printing Prusa I3 MK2S @ EBPL Choose a 3D model Find already created models on the internet - they should be in 01 the .stl or .obj format; make sure there are available to download under the Creative Commons-Attribution-Non Commercial license. Most models are available for free. Models are for non-commercial use, and author must be credited. 3D Modeling Software The easiest way to quickly create a model is TinkerCad Available at www. tinkercad.com - a free online 02 editor (no installation needed) for PC, Mac and iPad. Other programs used for making 3D models : Blender SketchApp DesignSpark Mechanical Rhino3D FreeCAD SolidWorks OpenScad Maya Fusion 360o Inventor Slicer A 3D printer can print almost anything, to do so you will need to convert the .obj or .stl format into a .gcode file. 03 Gcode is a file format readable by a 3D printer. EBPL uses Prusa I3 MK2S Slicer. EBPL 3D Printer Make sure your Slicer settings look like this Filament EBPL uses only one type of filament: PLA of 1.75 mm diameter. 04 PLA is suitable for detailed models. ● Nozzle temperature: 220-240 °C (428 - 464 °F) ● Bed temperature: 50 - 60 °C (122 - 140 °F) Final Print Patron will specify number of prints and quality setting. EBPL will receive the stl/obj file from patron, and will provide an 05 estimate for cost and delivery time frame. Only finished product will be charged. Look for an updated 3D Printing policy on EBPL website after library resumes operations.

Survey of 3D Digital Heritage Repositories and Platforms
Virtual Archaeology Review, 11(23): 1-15, 2020 https://doi.org/10.4995/var.2020.13226 © UPV, SEAV, 2015 Received: March 4, 2020 Accepted: May 26, 2020 SURVEY OF 3D DIGITAL HERITAGE REPOSITORIES AND PLATFORMS ESTUDIO DE LOS REPOSITORIOS Y PLATAFORMAS DE PATRIMONIO DIGITAL EN 3D Erik Champion , Hafizur Rahaman * Faculty of Humanities, Curtin University, Bentley 6845, Australia. [email protected]; [email protected] Highlights: • A survey of relevant features from eight institutional and eleven commercial online 3D repositories in the scholarly field of 3D digital heritage. • Presents a critical review of their hosting services and 3D model viewer features. • Proposes six features to enhance services of 3D repositories to support the GLAM sector, heritage scholars and heritage communities. Abstract: Despite the increasing number of three-dimensional (3D) model portals and online repositories catering for digital heritage scholars, students and interested members of the general public, there are very few recent academic publications that offer a critical analysis when reviewing the relative potential of these portals and online repositories. Solid reviews of the features and functions they offer are insufficient; there is also a lack of explanations as to how these assets and their related functionality can further the digital heritage (and virtual heritage) field, and help in the preservation, maintenance, and promotion of real-world 3D heritage sites and assets. What features do they offer? How could their feature list better cater for the needs of the GLAM (galleries, libraries, archives and museums) sector? This article’s priority is to examine the useful features of 8 institutional and 11 commercial repositories designed specifically to host 3D digital models.

Tisk objektů určených pro osvojení základů tvorby 3D modelování Bakalářská práce Ondřej Bolvári Vedoucí práce: Mgr. Michala Kotlasová Jihočeská univerzita v Českých Budějovicích Pedagogická fakulta Katedra informatiky 2017 Prohlášení Prohlašuji, že svoji bakalářskou práci jsem vypracoval samostatně, pouze s použitím pramenů a literatury uvedených v seznamu citované literatury. Prohlašuji, že v souladu s § 47 b zákona č. 111/1998 Sb. v platném znění souhlasím se zveřejněním své bakalářské práce, a to v nezkrácené podobě elektronickou cestou ve veřejně přístupné části databáze STAG provozované Jihočeskou univerzitou v Českých Budějovicích na jejích internetových stránkách. V Českých Budějovicích dne 21. 4. 2017 Ondřej Bolvári Abstrakt Bakalářská práce pojednává o tvorbě vzorových úloh určených k modelování objektů. Tyto úlohy jsou vytvářeny ve dvou programech pro 3D modelování. Vybrané úlohy zahrnují základní postupy při tvorbě 3D modelů. Úlohy jsou následně porovnány z hlediska metod a principů použitých v obou vybraných programech. V bakalářské práci jsou sepsány odlišnosti a náročnosti při vytvoření v daném programu. Kromě programů určených k této práci, práce také zahrnuje rozbor dalších programů, které se zabývají stejnou nebo podobnou problematikou. Jedinou podmínkou k zařazení do této práce byla jejich volná distribuce. Na závěr teoretické části je provedena diskuze, která analyzuje každý model z hlediska jeho náročnosti při modelování a dále rozhoduje, za jakých podmínek je možné model vytisknout. Praktická část práce řeší samotný průběh modelování a výsledný 3D tisk. 3D tisk je detailně zpracován, veškeré chyby při tisku jsou sepsané, vysvětlené a doplněné o možnosti se těmto chybám v budoucnu vyvarovat. Výsledkem této práce jsou úlohy pro modelování jednoduchých objektů, které prověří znalosti a dovednosti začínajícího modeláře a následný výběr vhodných úloh k 3D tisku.

3D Printing: Jewelry Basics
3D PRINTING: JEWELRY BASICS 125 S. Prospect Avenue, Elmhurst, IL 60126 (630) 279-8696 ● elmhurstpubliclibrary.org Create, Make, and Build WHAT IS 3D PRINTING? What is 3D Printing? A 3D printer works essentially like a traditional printer except it prints in plastic (or other material) layers to make 3-dimensional designs. 3D printers can print in several different materials including plastic, metal, wood, ceramics, limestone and even chocolate. Elmhurst Public Library uses a MakerBot 5th Generation Replicator which uses a PLA filament: a corn-based plastic. 3D printing has been around since as early as the 1990’s but has exploded in popularity due to technology advances and lowered costs. Although many 3D printers themselves can cost thousands of dollars, the materials are relatively inexpensive after the initial purchase. Ours cost about $2, 900 each. Why 3D print? Many different types of people use 3D printers for different things. Several news stories have covered incredible 3D printing projects like parents creating prosthesis for their children or the development of 3D printed cars, but there are plenty of uses for everyone. Some reasons you may use a 3D printer include: Replacing a broken cabinet handle Making fun gifts Printing the case for a prototype electronic component And maybe most importantly learning to use 3D printing software is a valuable skill Where To Find 3D Jewelry Files to Download Shapeways - will custom print designs in different materials for you.

Additive Manufacturing, Cloud-Based 3D Printing and Associated Services—Overview
Journal of Manufacturing and Materials Processing Review Additive Manufacturing, Cloud-Based 3D Printing and Associated Services—Overview Felix W. Baumann 1,2,* and Dieter Roller 2 1 TWT GmbH Science & Innovation, Stuttgart 70565, Germany 2 Institute of Computer-aided Product Development, University of Stuttgart, Stuttgart 70569, Germany; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +49-711-215-777-1207 Received: 22 September 2017; Accepted: 13 October 2017; Published: 17 October 2017 Abstract: Cloud Manufacturing (CM) is the concept of using manufacturing resources in a service-oriented way over the Internet. Recent developments in Additive Manufacturing (AM) are making it possible to utilise resources ad-hoc as replacements for traditional manufacturing resources in case of spontaneous problems in the established manufacturing processes. In order to be of use in these scenarios, the AM resources must adhere to a strict principle of transparency and service composition in adherence to the Cloud Computing (CC) paradigm. With this review, we provide an overview of CM, AM and relevant domains as well as presenting the historical development of scientiﬁc research in these ﬁelds, from 2002 to 2016. Part of this work is also a meta-review on the domain to further detail its development and structure. Keywords: additive manufacturing; cloud manufacturing; 3D printing service 1. Introduction Cloud Manufacturing (here CM, in other works also CMfg) as a concept is not new and has been executed in enterprises for many years [1], under different terms, e.g., Grid Manufacturing [2] or Agile Manufacturing [3]. The decision to have a globally distributed production process with many contractors or partners interconnected and related supply chains is a luxurious one.
