3D PRINTING BIOCOMPOSITE
Online course

21 -22 February 
 Saturday 21st – 10:00-13:00 / 14:00-16:00 (CET)
Sunday 22nd – 10:00-13:00 / 14:30-16:30 (CET)

 

The relationship between the designer and the materials is something intimate, it is a choice dictated by the function but also by the sensitivity of the designer.

With the 3D Printing bio-composite workshop we want to enhance this bond, offering participants the opportunity not only to choose the materials, but to create them and experiment firsthand.
The heart of the workshop will be the use of manual or digital extruders for 3D printing, to work with organic waste materials. This practical approach allows for direct and intuitive experimentation, transforming the design gesture into an almost artisanal act.

Participants will create a mini collection of materials/textures, combining the possibilities of 3D printing with the use of biomaterials of organic origin for multilayered biosurface.

BIOCOMPOSITE MATERIALS

Between theory and practice we will focus on biocomposite materials suitable for 3D printing.

Introduction to Biobased materials
Composition element funtions
Biocomposites recipes 

DESIGN

In the second part we will use both Illustrator and Rhinoceros to create geometry and export printable file.

Illustrator – Export 2D file for 3D printing
Rhinoceros – Export 3D file for 3D printing

GCODE and 3D PRINTING

To create the Gcode we will use Orcaslicer, creating a custom profile for QZMini Extruder. (in case you have alredy your own printer you can use your common Slicer software)

Create new Profile in Orcaslicer for QZMini
3D Printing setting for Biocomposite
Print geometry with Biocomposite

Useful info

Previous knowledge: No previous skill ae required, we will gide yu though all the process. 

Materials: The participant will be provided with the list of materials they need to purchase to make the recipens.

Softwares: We will us Rhinoceros 7/8, Illustrator and Orcaslicer

To 3D print: If you don’t have a LDM Printer you can adapt your FDM Printer with QZMini Extruder .

Purcasing the Workshop with the QZMini Extruder will be appled a discount.

Workshop records: Workshop days will be recorded and participants will have access for 1 month.

The workshop will be run in Zoom Platform.

In which language will the workshop be held? English

Do I need a 3D Printer? Yes, this workshop aims to guide you on the 3D printing process with paste material. You can use your own 3D printer or purchase QZMini Extruder.
