"Some of the pieces [at the Department of Ceramics and Ceramics at Kookmin University] had other materials stuck to them, or multiple pieces of ceramics stuck together, or deformed shapes due to warping and dents, and I thought that I could use digital technology to artistically reinterpret these pieces from a modern perspective."
“The time required to print a typical removable partial dental frame is reduced by 80 percent, which makes it possible to complete the partial denture framework in a day and a half.”
“For us, the most important thing is minimizing turnaround time. It is critical to our business success and 3D printing has proved its capability on this front.”
“When you incorporate business partners into the educational environment, it raises the bar.”
“China Eastern Airlines plans to introduce the new Airbus 350 which is equipped with over 1,000 3D-printed flying parts. As a complementary method to the traditional manufacturing, 3D printing will become more widely adopted in the future. It’s critical to gain the expertise and be well-prepared for future challenges.”
“We have had a mindset change with our engineers. Now they are not willing to live with one prototype and hope it works.”
“We needed highly accurate, multi-material 3D printers; the Fortus adapts well to industrial applications and the Connex is useful in medical applications.”
“This machine is particularly suited for high-accuracy applications. This printer can generate layers of two hundredths of a millimeter. Depending on the material used, we can print more flexible objects.”
“The ability of Dimension 3D Printers to quickly and inexpensively produce parts that are strong enough for use in real applications opens up a world of opportunities for schools.”
“Using Stratasys 3D Printing technology to customize and supply parts to customers and to allow self-expression within a single car is, I believe, a first.”
“By adjusting the umbrella in the artery, we can be certain that the embolic protection device will, in fact, cover the area of the entire vessel. If that doesn’t happen, there is a risk the catheter will touch the walls of the vessel and dislodge embolisms. This could lead to problems for the patient.”
“If we wish to work with a prototype that behaves similarly to an artery, it must have elastic properties. Printers that work with only rigid materials would not be functional for this use.”
“We also use this machine in the process of developing heart pumps, which demands materials very different to those used in the blood vessel prototypes.”
“We have used FDM Technology for almost as long as the company has been established.”
"I can see our 3D printer enabling us to better train staff and surgeons of the future, and ultimately becoming even more integral to all aspects of the dentistry we practice.”
