GCM 750 - 3D Printing

Prerequisites: None
3D printing is a rapidly growing, highly versatile technique for rapid prototyping or responsive small-scale production. Based on ink jet printing technologies, 3D printing is being adopted by many printing and packaging companies. In this introduction to 3D printing, students will explore three dimensional scanning, software and files for 3D printer output. An introduction to materials and various 3D printing technologies from home to industrial applications will also be conducted.
