3D Printing Nerd

Fan Mail Friday is back on the channel! WOOOO!!

Vision Miner specializes in HIGH TEMP INDUSTRIAL 3d printing using PEEK, ULTEM, and others. These materials require extreme heat to print, AND, extreme heat to dry and remove moisture. However, they have the process down, which is why NASA chose them to 3d print parts for their SPACE SUITS.

The Tesla Cybertruck is loved AND hated by many all over the world. Elon’s truck window famously cracked under pressure, and The Hacksmith has their half-scale version. I wanted my own, so I 3d printed it! Let’s assemble it AND test the window 🙂

3D Printing is making Infinite Flight possible thanks to Mothership Aero and Slice Engineering. We got the chance to tour their shop and find out how 3d printing is making their blimps fly further and stay in the air longer!

CFPEEK is an amazing engineering grade material to 3d print with. Unfortunately, it comes with it’s own engineering grade headaches. A clog / jam in the heat break with CFPEEK means you need to bring out some fire to clear it.

I love practical printing, and 3d printing parts to fix things around the house is AWESOME. My tripod leg extensions never really worked right, and thanks to someone in the community, new ones were printed and WOW DO THEY WORK!!

Raise3D invited us in to take a tour and go BEHIND THE SCENES at their US headquarters in Irivine, California. We saw R&D, Tech Support, QA, Sales, and shipping which held a SEA of 3d printers ready to go to their new owners. It was COOL meeting all the people that make the machine go, and I really hope you enjoy this peek behind the curtain.

For Industrial Additive Manufacturing, the Siemens Digital Enterprise Portforlio is extensive and provides a massive amount of powerful features for it’s users. Let’s take a deeper look at what it can do with simulations, and planning, and digital twins during the entire product life cycle.

The wonders of Industrial Additive Manufacturing are showcased at FORMNEXT in Frankfurt, Germany, and WE GOT TO SEE IT! The 2019 show was HUGE and the biggest one yet. We got the chance to stop by a few booths and learn about the latest and greatest!
