Repost from http://3dprint.com/ Ryerson University professors Claire Oswald and Claus Rinner have come up with a novel way to teach their students about local watersheds and the problems that they face. Working with Ryerson-affiliated 3D printing company Think2Thing, they’ve begun 3D printing scale models of Toronto watersheds, so that their students can actually hold the bodies of water in their hands. So far, they’ve printed every watershed in the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority. “The [...]

Liquid Silicone Rubber is a broadly used non-reactive compound. Its high resistance to extreme environments and temperatures make it a perfect seal material for aerospace, defense, and automotive components, but it is also used in sporting goods, medical devices, and consumer products. Unlike traditional thermoplastics which are melted before injection molding, LSR starts as a liquid which then cures into a solid after injected into a heated mold. It has a lower viscosity, which allows [...]

3D Printing and Thermoforming Applications

By Cimquest Marketing|2016-12-15T14:31:00-05:00April 15th, 2016|Categories: 3D Printing / Additive Mfg|

Thermoforming is a process in which sheets of extruded plastic are formed into custom shapes. The process begins by heating a sheet to an elastic or pliable state. After the plastic softens, a mold is placed under the sheet, and the sheet is drawn onto the mold by either a vacuum or air pressure. Upon cooling, the plastic takes the shape of the mold, forming a finished solid part. Thermoforming is a widely adopted process [...]
