COURSE DESCRIPTION
We explain 3D printing, the different implementations, Polyjet, Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) Stereolithography (SLA) and Selective Laser Sintering (SLS). Which materials are used and some example prints. We’ll also take a look at 4D printing ! Yes it is a thing. The fourth dimension is time. Imaging 3D printing a shoe which then over time grows with your feet ! well maybe you get the idea.
