The current desktop 3D printer, which is petite, fairly priced and easy to operate, and is a good helper for families, educational institutions and designers. 3D printers are bringing great convenience to our lives, which may not be realized by many people.
Next, let’s see how 3D printers can be used in our lives.
The use of 3D printers in the home
Bottles, cans, storage boxes, hangers, and even little toys for children to play with, the articles for daily use can be printed by yourself but with a 3D printer. Compared with buying them with money, it will be more meaningful and interesting to create the desired styles by yourself.
The use of 3D printers in education
In the education industry. At present, 3D printers are widely used in many DIY courses, so that students can freely design toys they want or objects they dream of, so as to strengthen children’s practical ability, imagination and creativity. Little inventors not only rely on simple manual design, but also become more scientific and technological. Children’s games is no longer limited to online video games and TV, and 3D printing technology, interesting and intelligent, has become a better way of entertainment.
The use of 3D printer in fashion design
Iris Van Herpen, a Dutch designer, used a 3D printer to design fashion for Bjork and Lady GaGa. Freedom OfCreation and NaimJosefi use 3D printers to make gorgeous high heels, which can have made Kelly Bradshaw enchanted. ContinuumFashion used MakerBot’s Replicator printer to create the first 3D printed bikini and glasses, which became the highlight of Fashion Week 2012.
The use of 3D printer in architectural design
Are you still drafting your design blueprint on the drawings? Whether you are satisfied with your design and suffer from no way to visualize it. No matter how beautiful the drawings are, it is difficult to match the three-dimensional objects that can be seen and touched.
The use of 3D printer in jewelry
Jewelry design has high requirements, especially the personalized ones. When 3D modeling generates jewelry, the human body will be input as an environmental constraint, so that each piece of jewelry will remember the shape of fingers, arms or neck in the printing process to achieve perfect matching. The final effect is just like jewelry grows naturally around the human body.
The use of 3D printers in scientific models
If you are a biology major and spend most of your time building your DNA molecular structure with real sticks and balls, you can use 3D printers to better understand biological structures that are difficult to conceptualize. Or if you are a medical student, the most important by-product of 3D printing may not be a plastic gadget or a replacement bone, but a fundamental rethinking of core scientific beliefs.
The use of 3D printers in components and parts
When parts of the door handle at home are broken, auto parts are missing, or you want to DIY a robot, a 3D printer can shorten the time from design to actual manufacturing, compared with casting parts.
The above list is just the tip of the iceberg in the application of 3D printers in our lives. If the power of 3D printers can be known by more people and slowly enter ordinary people’s families, our lives will have a brand-new change.
