It explains the advantages along with comparisons of actual modeling and working times, taking into account the differences in "time and quality" based on the modeling methods. *You can download the document using the button below.

This document is a series that proposes solutions to various challenges faced in production sites, from identifying issues to finding resolutions. In the "3D Data Utilization Edition," we will introduce various solutions to manufacturing challenges through the use of 3D data. [Document Overview] In recent years, the proliferation of 3D printers has advanced explosively. In particular, FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) 3D printers have become more affordable and capable of producing larger models, leading to widespread use among many companies. The introduction of large machines has made it possible to produce models that were previously made in parts all at once, thereby reducing labor hours. However, the increase in production time and weight has become a challenge for large-scale printing, and as the size of printed objects increases, it is necessary to adjust the data to achieve a balance between lightweight design and strength. In this document, we will specifically introduce methods to achieve both lightweighting and strength maintenance, which are challenges in large-scale printing. *You can download the document using the button below.*

This document is a series that proposes solutions to various challenges faced in production sites, from identifying issues to finding resolutions. In the "3D Data Utilization Edition," we will introduce various solutions to manufacturing challenges through the use of 3D data. [Document Overview] With the advent of low-cost and easy-to-introduce 3D scanners, it has become easier to utilize 3D scan data. However, to scan workpieces that have characteristics such as black color or gloss, which are challenging for 3D scanners, it is necessary to use powder spray, which can lead to several inconveniences: - Fine powder can get into gaps. - Careful handling is required to avoid scratching the workpiece. - Since it cannot be washed, it must be wiped off. In this document, we will introduce methods to significantly reduce post-processing time while operating existing 3D scanners! We will provide a detailed explanation of how to complete scans effortlessly, regardless of the performance of the 3D scanner. *You can download the document using the button below.

This document is a series that proposes solutions to various challenges faced in production sites, from identifying issues to finding solutions. In the "3D Data Utilization Edition," we will introduce various solutions to manufacturing challenges through the use of 3D data. [Document Overview] Among 3D printers, FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) machines are easy to use and implement, and they have become widespread in many production sites. In recent years, elements that were considered weaknesses of FDM, such as the variety of materials and improvements in model quality, have gradually been addressed. However, the challenge posed by FDM technology is the "insufficient strength of printed models." This document compiles the issue of strength deficiency that most FDM 3D printers face and explains the advantages of carbon materials with "continuous fibers." Additionally, we will introduce 3D printers that adopt a unique printing method based on FDM. *You can download the document using the button below.

In the "3D Data Utilization" edition, we will introduce various solutions to manufacturing challenges through the use of 3D data. [Document Overview] In replica production, while "molding" offers high reproducibility, there is a risk of damage or injury during the molding process, which often leads to measurements being taken through "visual inspection." However, issues such as: - "I forgot to measure the shape of the side, so I have to go back to the site..." - "The measurement and drafting process takes an enormous amount of time and labor" are indeed occurring. As a solution to these challenges, the adoption of 3D scanners is suggested. However, since there are various types and methods of 3D scanners, selecting the wrong model can result in not achieving satisfactory results. This document summarizes the challenges faced in the field of replica production and explains how to reduce work time through the use of 3D scanners.
