Electronics 3D printer manufacturer Nano Dimension is now working together with the expert PCB designers at Zuken to advance the 3D printing user experience and prototype turnaround times. Nano Dimension will take advantage of the support for implementing electronic technologies provided by Zuken’s market-leading, native 3D, system-level design solution, CR-8000 Design Force, to further evolve its Dragonfly PCB 3D printer.
Taking place in different locations throughout the world (including China for manufacturing and Massachussets for Science), Dassault Systèmes’ 3D Experience series of events represents the state of the art of what 3D software can do today for designers, engineers, architects, doctors and anyone who need to run a highly efficient manufacturing operation. The “Design in the Age of Experience” 2017 two-day conference in Milan focused on everything that 3D technologies (including 3D software, VR and AR) can do for innovating shapes and products. Now, more than ever before, however, 3D printing is becoming a main focus of the creative workflow.

There are many software packages that are used to create digital models. One such package that is popular for industrial, product, and graphic design and architecture is Rhinoceros 3D, or “Rhino.” Grasshopper is a visual scripting platform for Rhino. With it, the user can build precise, customizable Rhino objects by simply dragging boxes around the screen and connecting them with virtual “wires.” No knowledge of programming is necessary!

When 3Design first entered the New Zealand 3D printing market, they thought that this innovative technology would spark a surge in a range of consumers from business owners to hobbyists to integrate 3D printing into their lives. The team soon discovered that there was a high demand for 3D printing from businesses, but a lack of demand from the general public. People who wanted to try out 3D printing did not want to have to buy an expensive 3D printer or keep up with its maintenance. The idea of 3D printing seemed intimidating because of the knowledge needed to successfully operate a printer to get the outcome you are looking for.
