Book Price $0 : The Use Of 3D Printing--digitally Controlled Additive Manufacturing--is Growing Rapidly. Consumer Models Of 3D Printers Allow People To Fabricate Small Plastic Objects, From Cabinet Knobs To Wedding Cake Toppers. Industrial Uses Are Becoming Widespread, As Businesses Use The Technology To Fabricate Prototypes, Spare Parts, Custom-fitted Prosthetics, And Other Plastic Or Metal Items, Often At Lower Cost And With Greater Efficiency Than Standard Manufacturing. In This Volume In The MIT Press Essential Knowledge Series, John Jordan Offers An Accessible Introduction To 3D Printing. Jordan Outlines The Stages Of 3D Printing, From Idea To Software Model To A Printable File That Slices The Planned Object Into Printable Layers To The Finished Object Itself. He Describes Additive Technologies, Consumer 3D Printing In Homes And Schools, Mass Customization, And Industrial Uses. He Considers The Possible Unintended Consequences Of 3D Printing On Jobs, As Companies Scramble To Find Employees With An Uncommon Skill Set; On Business Models And Supply Chains, As Manufacturing Is Decentralized; And On Patent Law, As Machines Can Be Programmed To Copy Protected Property. Finally, Jordan Looks At New And Emerging Uses, Including Bioprinting, Building Construction, And Micromachines.
