Physical prototypes allow the testing of ideas quickly with models that look similar to the final product. Rapid Prototyping (RP) based on additive or subtractive technologies allow trial usability tests to avoid errors ...

3D printing or additive manufacturing (AM), through computer graphics, has streamlined manufacturing processes, allowing rapid prototyping (PR). In this way, it allows and reduced resources. There are numerous AM techniques, ...

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to investigate and discuss the influence of printing parameters on the mechanical properties of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) print by fused deposition modelling (FDM). The ...

This paper presents a compact triple-band planar antenna. The prototype is based on a printed dipole which is excited with Split Ring Resonators (SRRs) as resonant elements to get three frequency bands. To validate the ...

This study reports on the development of a 3D printer and its implementation in Product Design Education as a tool for prototyping and supporting students in the design process. First, it is presented the design and ...

he 3D Printing process also known as Additive Manufacturing is used in the manufacture of prototypes and parts using the material addition technique to construct the object, depending on the procedure adopted may present ...
