3d printing and Robotics
3D Printing
3D
printing is a process of making three-dimensional objects from a
digital file. This rapidly growing technology has revolutionised how mechanical
engineers design and produce parts and components.
3D printing also allows for the creation of custom parts and components quickly and easily- It can reduce the cost and time associated with traditional
manufacturing processes.
- As technology advances, the cost of 3D printing will decrease,
and the quality of the parts and components produced will increase.
- In the medical industry, 3D printing technology can be involved
in creating the following,
- Custom prosthetics
- Bionic Hands
- Prosthetic upper limb
- Implants
- Medical devices
- In the automotive industry, 3D printing technology can produce
parts and components for,
- Cars
- Trucks
- Electric vehicles
Robotics is becoming increasingly important
in mechanical engineering. They are becoming increasingly sophisticated and
capable of performing complex tasks, and they have a major impact on of
accuracy and efficiency of building machines.
- Robotics can be used to automate tasks, as well as to create
new materials and components.
- Robotics can also be used to improve existing processes and
components.
- Robotics can be used to
- Explore hazardous environments
- perform surgery
- provide companionship
- They can learn and adapt to their environment, making them more
efficient and effective.
- Robotic surgery is becoming increasingly common, and robots
assist doctors in complex operations.
- For example, The Da Vinci Surgical System provides
sophisticated equipment for performing invasive robotic surgery.
