1. Remember that your design doesn’t have to be perfect.
This is why you’re getting a prototype to begin with, right? We’re here to help you test out your idea, imperfections and all, so that you’ll have a marketable product to sell.
We’ve talked about 3D printing before on this blog, and if you follow us on Twitter, Facebook, or Google+, you’ll know that we eat up any article that’s about 3D printing in any of its forms.
What I want to explain to you today is a little bit of its timeline. While it’s making some HUGE strides every day, we can’t forget about the history of 3D printing.
One of the ways that we at RevPart give back to our community is by donating time and money to get kids excited about science, technology, engineering, and math. This group of subjects, collectively known as STEM, is rapidly growing and expanding….But even as these job fields are growing and moving in new directions, some people are concerned that America is not ready to compete with the rest of the world.
Have an idea for a new product? Your first step is to make sure it isn’t a design that has already been invented or if it has been, that your idea shows an important improvement.
3D printing has seen some pretty big advancements over the last few years. You can now buy your own compact 3D printers that will sit on your desk, you can 3D print ice cream and chocolate into delicious shapes, and doctors are using this technology to save and improve lives…but some engineers are thinking much bigger.
Making things with molds has been around for more than a hundred years. It’s a very easy way to produce hundreds of thousands of identical copies of an item.
But what if you don’t need a million of your product?
Plastic CNC machining is an example of a subtractive manufacturing process. When you place your order with RevPart, we begin with a solid piece of plastic, load it into the machine, and begin cutting. The machine removes plastic layer by layer, following the guidelines in your CAD file, and eventually reveals a perfectly formed product.
3D printing is a technology that has been around since the 1980s but has just started receiving excited media attention. Its possibilities are endless and the media hype is understandable…but what exactly IS 3D printing? How does it work? And is it the right way to make your prototype?
We’re here to help you move from just a sketch on a napkin to an actual prototype that you can hold in your hands, feel, use, and tweak before moving on to the production phase. In addition to saving you money with our low-cost high-quality options, we’re saving you time—streamlining the process and moving with an efficiency that you won’t be able to find at other companies.
