Rapid Prototyping is a prototyping technology that produces complicated parts directly form three dimensional CAD data with high efficiency, and has been extensively applied to various manufacturing processes. The aim of this research is to apply a 3D printer part as wax pattern in the investment casting process. The difference between conventional pattern wax and 3D printer wax is compared by experiments. The direct casting method is developed for ceramic-shell investment casting.

3D 프린터는 산업용을 중심으로 성장해 왔으나 최근 경제 효과 및 기술 발달로 인한 원가 절감 등으로 인해 개인용 3D 프린터 시장의 성장이 가속화되는 추세이다. 그러나 현재 보급되고 있는 3D 개인용 프린터는 조형 속도, 크기, 정밀도 등의 한계점에 따라 소비자 만족도가 매우 낮은 편이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이러한 개인용 3D 프린터의 기술적 한계를 극복하기 위해 LSU를 이용한 SLA 방식의 3D 프린터를 제안하였다. 그리고 핵심 기능을 담당하는 스캐닝 기구부의 동작을 확인하기 위해 스테핑 모터를 이용한 조형판의 이동 및 레이저 출력 테스트를 시행하였다. 해당 테스트를 통해 레이저 동작 및 제어가 가능한지 확인하였으며 아울러 레이저 모듈과 폴리곤 미러를 사용하여 X축에 일정한 점이 출력됨을 확인하였다. 제안하는 3D프린터는 정밀도와 제조 속도를 개선하여 기존의 보급 형 3D프린터를 대체할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

In recent years the industry has utilized some of the 3D printers in the manufacturing process a trend which spread also a personal desktop 3D printer priced. The 3D printer can create the 3D object by using an ink or a laser instead of the powders, and various liquid plastic material. Properties of 3D printers are liquid, solid, powder and raw materials are also classified as varied. New ideas and processes in the form of designer furniture, becoming increasingly evolved through the development of materials and technologies. Science, art and technology combine to create a new aesthetic for the complex and free binding structure is a combination of design and materials are available in craft and the structure appears not showing. 3D scanning was not simply continue to develop as the production process by a variety of tools and content transformation. Create new mathematical tables and chairs designed by the theory fit the digital age shows a coupling structure with decoration into small pieces. It has created a new craft technique in the digital age.

A 3D printer was used to fabricate a micro-TAS system for biomedical applications. A polymeric medical device fabrication based on a 3D printer can be performed at atmospheric conditions. A CAD- and CAM-based system is a flexible method to design medical components, and a 3D printer is a suitable device to perform this task. In this research, a 100-micron-wide fluidic channel was fabricated with a high-aspect ratio. A cross-sectional SEM image confirmed its possible usage in a micro-reactor using 3D printers. CNC-machined samples were compared to 3D printer-fabricated samples, and the advantages and disadvantages were discussed. Based on the SEM images, the surface roughness of the 3D printed reactor was not affected by wet or dry conditions due to its manufacturing principle. An aspect ratio of 5 to 1 was achievable with 100-${\mu}$ m-wide fluid channels. No melting was found, and the shape of channels was straight enough to be used for micro reactors.

Recently, various researches on materials and equipment have been actively conducted to overcome the limitations of conventional output methods due to the increase of diversity of 3D printing materials and to adopt an output method suitable for the characteristics of each material. As the range applicable to outputable materials is expanded, manufacturing of medical devices applied to patients is in a more rapid growth trend than other fields. In this study, we investigated the suitable materials for fabricating 3D printer using photocurable resin. As a result, one suitable material was selected through biological safety experiment and thermal stability experiment. Next, to optimize the output of the selected materials, we have developed a system that optimizes the equipment according to the characteristics of the material. The results of this study enabled the implementation of personalized medical implants that could not be made from 3D printer dependent materials, thereby overcoming the limitations of existing 3D printer output conditions and dedicated materials.

This paper presents the design, optimization and fabrication of a piezo driven micro-positioning stage constructed using a 3D-printer. 3D printing technology provides many advantageous aspects in comparison to traditional manufacturing techniques allowing more rapid prototyping freedom in design, etc. Micro-positioning stages have traditionally been made using metal materials namely aluminum. This paper investigates the possibility of fabricating stages using ABS material with a 3D printer. CAE simulations show that equivalent motion amplification can be achieved compared to a traditional aluminum fabricated stage while the maximum stress is 30 times less. This leads to the possibility of stages with higher magnification factors and less load on the driving piezo element. Experiment results agree with the simulation results. A micro-position stage was fabricated using a 3D printer with ABS material. The motion amplification is very linear and 50 nm stepping was demonstrated.

This paper presents the development of a 3D printer based piezo-driven vertical micro-positioning stage. The stage consists of two flexure bridge structures which amplify and transfer the horizontal motion of the piezo-element into vertical motion of the end-effector. The stage is fabricated with ABS material using a precision 3D printer. This enables a one-body design eliminating the need for assembly, and significantly increases the freedom in design while shortening fabrication time. The design of the stage was optimized using response surface analysis method. Experimental results are presented which demonstrate 100nm stepping in the vertical out-of-plane direction. The results demonstrate the future possibilities of applying 3D printers and ABS material in fabricating linear driven motion stages.

This paper focuses on the development of RT technology suitable for manufacturing a small quantity of metal prototype of a precise part from an RP master. Dimensional accuracy and surface roughness are evaluated from Thermojet part of a 3D printer, and effective post-processing method is introduced. Investment casting is done using a prototype built from 3D printer as a wax pattern. Ceramic shell investment casting technique is developed to build a prototype with materials mostly wanted. Also, experimental result shows this research is very useful in manufacturing of a small quantity of functional part or a test part of a specific material.
