Ever since people started making stuff - and then tried to make new and improved stuff - there's been a need to make prototypes. They're used for design evaluation, testing, certification, as proof-of-concept, for crowdfunding campaigns and as bridges to full production. So today, let us discuss prototyping methods in detail.
In this episode you will learn about:
- CNC Machining
- Vacuum Casting
- Stereolithography (SLA)
- Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM)
- Selective Laser Sintering (SLS)
- Multi Jet Fusion (MJF)
This series is specifically catered to professionals interested in engineering, manufacturing, product design and product development.

Another great video Gordon. Love the story time
Started 3d printing for a hobby using filamet. I absolutely love it. Going from nothing to something is great.
Going from nothing to something - Well said 👌
Nice cool stories, thanks
I almost closed the video when you said serious engineering for serious engineers...I though "that isnt me" but then the voiceover made me laugh! Thanks for this
If you are curious about how things work, then you are a serious engineer.
@@starrapid thank you. I'm a high school drop out that cant stop making things...mechanical things and I have a problem with feeling down on myself. thanks, you made my week!
I used to get help from Imaginarium for my 3d printed parts..... They are quite good in their field of rapid prototyping.
Yes. They are great :)
Serious Engineering great engineering and manufacturing technology
Hi Gordon, love this video never knew your success started with SLA!
SLA is still King and companies like Formlabs seem to be pushing SLA to create low volume injection molds. So it's like a bridge between Vacuum Casting and spending $$$ to actually CNC that Injection Mold.
But I think there's potential the future will be dominated by FDM just because how much innovation there is with the design - mainly due to how cheap it is compared to the other types of printing. There are just so many different FDM printing companies nowadays. It's like how the personal computer revolution dominated minicomputers. Innovations like Core XY and Non-Planar are currently the next step towards getting a higher resolution with the part. But we're still years away to seeing if FDM can match the resolution of SLA.
In terms of prototyping, and rapid local manufacturing, FDM is IMO a mature enough technology for any application that doesn't need the final finish / tolerance of SLA. In fact, I think it's likely to become a very disruptive technology soon. There are many projects already available online for open source tools, where FDM parts are the glue that holds together the components (motors, electronics, batteries). With logistics getting more expensive, certain tools such as drills or small CNCs should already be cheaper to produce locally in a workshop than mass produced and shipped.
Love your background stories. Greetings from Taiwan.
Thank you :)
Great video 👍 as always 🦾 I'm passionate in Vacuum Casting so much that I built my own machine to test the process. Which technology you use to make master patterns?
You should mention about PolyJet. Great innovation as well 🧐
Hey Pawel. Thank you. We mostly use Stereolithography (SLA) to make our master patterns. The footage you see in this video is one of our Vacuum Casting projects.
@@starrapid Is it possible to use SLS/MJF master patterns in Vacuum Casting to avoid cleaning spots left by supports?
@@pawetrznadel7770 Yes, it is possible to use SLS/MJF. In fact, any physical solid, made by any method would work, so long as the physical solid can take a little bit of heat and doesn't shrink or deform too much. It does not matter what method is used.
Great video. I want to achieve your greatness but firstly, how were you able to raise half a million in six months here in the UK? 🤔
Amazing nicely laid out the different manufacturing processes, you get subcribe from me. 😃
Thanks for the sub!
i want to do a startup in 3d printing please help me
Hi Gordon I am plastic mould maker. I like your informative vedio.
Thank you :)
You got a thumbs up at "I was Young, I needed the Money" I would have give a second one at the end of the story, too but youtube does not allow it :)
😂
At the end of the video, when you say the FDM 3D printer is hell faster than your SLA printer, I thought you were talking about Voron, but then...XD
😂
Hi g
I need perfectly clear parts, what the best for this?
Awesome video, amazing company you have developed !
Philip
Clear plastic can be used in CNC machining, SLA. Vacuum casting can be used to pour clear plastic copies, but they might not be "perfectly" clear. But they can be vapor-polished after making a copy, but only if they are made with PC, acrylic, ABS. Vapor polishing will also remove machining marks.
