1. design thinking & design process
We are all creators and design is no longer limited to those with drawing or painting skills. It’s a way of thinking, an approach that anyone can adopt. We’ve extracted the highlights of what design is, how it works in culture, design philosophy from the most from the most important sources in history into 40 minutes lesson.
How the design process works and also what are the responsibilities of each creator within the world and in the future. Understand the cycles, contrasting attitudes and differences between art and design.
2. additive manufacturing
When it comes to designing for additive manufacturing, it’s essential for designers to have a solid understanding of the technology, its advantages, and limitations. In this course, you will gain knowledge about the different types of 3D printing technologies, which will help you to determine the most suitable technology for various projects. You will also learn how to design your product for FFF technology, which includes optimizing designs to avoid the need for supports and minimize overhangs.
3. how FFF printers works, types and components
In this course for designing FFF, we will focus on providing a more in-depth understanding of how FFF technology works. We will explore the different types of FFF printers available in the market and their unique advantages and disadvantages. We will also discuss the latest innovations in the field, including new printers and components that are pushing the boundaries of FFF prinitng. you will have a clear understanding of the capabilities and limitations of FFF printing, enabling you to create designs that take full advantage of this technology.
4. theory of design for FFF
This course will cover critical topics such as construction, shapes, and dimensions when designing for FDM printing. There are many potential design mistakes that can lead to failed results, making it essential to understand the limits of FDM printing and how to design products that are easy to print.
However, this course will teach you various strategies that can be employed to design for FFF printers. By implementing these strategies, you can create aesthetic, functional, durable and easy to print products.
5. Filaments
Selecting the appropriate filament is essential to the success of any 3D printing project. However, with so many types of filaments available on the market, it can be challenging to determine which one is right for your specific needs. This is where understanding the key parameters of filament selection becomes important.
6. CAD modeling in Fusion 360
If you’re new to 3D modeling, don’t worry. We’ll start by introducing you to the tools in Fusion 360 that are important to create products we have in our catalogue. One of the great things about Fusion 360 is that it’s free for hobbyists and non-commercial use, and it receives regular updates and improvements. This means that you’ll always have access to the latest tools and features, and you can be confident that the software will continue to grow and evolve over time.
7. modeling screws, nuts and clip joints for FFF
When designing for FFF 3D printing, clips, joints, and screws can be incredibly useful tools to incorporate into your design. These features can help to hold multiple parts together, creating a stronger and more functional end product.
Designing a custom screw for your FFF 3D printed parts can open up a whole new range of possibilities for your designs. With a custom screw, you can create parts that are easy to assemble and disassemble, making them more convenient to use and maintain.
Custom screws can also be used to create more complex designs that would be difficult or impossible to achieve with standard off-the-shelf screws. One important thing to keep in mind when designing custom screws for FFF 3D printing is that the screw angles and profiles can be different from those used in metal screws.
8. Slicing your models
Slicers are incredibly powerful programs that are used to calculate all the necessary printing layers for a 3D model, making it easy to print even complex designs. To achieve the best possible results when 3D printing, it’s important to have a solid understanding of the slicer software and the various settings that can be adjusted to optimize your prints.By taking the time to understand the print settings and fine-tuning the slicing process, you can achieve faster print times and higher-quality prints.
9. Creating realistic patterns
3D printing technology has revolutionized the way we think about design and manufacturing, allowing us to push the boundaries of what’s possible and create truly incredible shapes and patterns. However, in order to achieve the best results, it’s important to adhere to certain basic rules and principles of design.
In this course, we will not only cover the basic rules of design for 3D printing, but also share our techniques for creating naturalistic patterns that can be used to add texture and complexity to your designs. By learning these techniques and applying them to your own projects, you’ll be able to take your 3D printing skills to the next level and create truly stunning, one-of-a-kind objects. The possibilities are truly endless, and we can’t wait to see what you create!
Design Lights
Designing lighting products on FFF printers can be a great way to create unique and personalized items. With the ability to print incredible light shades and lamps, the possibilities are endless. You can even buy ready-made sockets for pendants or table lights at IKEA and use them in your designs. The best part is, you don’t have to model the sockets yourself because we’re providing free 3D models of the popular IKEA Hemma and Stråla sockets, so you can easily incorporate them into your designs. Get ready to explore the exciting world of FFF-printed lighting!
Design fully printed furniture
Designing and printing with larger FFF printers can open up new possibilities for creating fully printed furniture. With the ability to print larger parts in one piece, you can create unique and custom pieces that may have been difficult or impossible to create with traditional manufacturing methods. Plus, the ability to choose from a variety of materials means you can achieve the look and feel you desire for your furniture. The possibilities are endless, and the results are truly cool. However, it’s important to have the essential knowledge and understanding of construction in order to ensure that your furniture will not only look great but also be durable and long-lasting.
Design Products for Food and Drinks
Despite the online speculation about 3D printing and bacteria, it is possible to design 3D printed parts for food and drinks. However, it is crucial to understand what real tests of 3D printed parts have shown, what materials are appropriate to use, and how to design the products to ensure they are safe for consumption.
