Transcript

1. 3D Printing Focused Peer Production Revolution in design, development and manufacturing Doctoral defence of M.Sc. Jarkko Moilanen (University of Tampere) Opponent: Associate Professor Athina Karatzogianni (University of Leicester, UK) Custos: Docent Tere Vadén (University of Tampere) 12.7.2017 12:00
2. 3D printing – why it is valuable? Time-to-Market Fail fast, Fail cheap Save Money Prototyping injection mold tools are expensive Clear Communication There is no ambiguity with representation of the product. Feedback verify the product has market potential. Personalize It tweak a part to uniquely fit their needs Square Holes? The limitations of standard machining Distributed, cheap & scalable production Business oriented viewpoints
3. From laboratory to desktop Not the focus in this thesis
4. From laboratory to desktop Focus - How did this happen?
5. 3D Printing Gold Rush Or more like plastic rush... About a decade ago began
6. Low-cost 3D printers Plethora of low-cost 3D Printers emerged around 2010, some survived Consumer market
7. Revolution - Freedom of creation Easy to use low-cost 3D printers Professional quality & affordable 3D printing services Millions of 3D printable & modifiable designs available online + design markets Easy to use 3D design tools in browser
8. Why? What happened? Who are the people behind the phenomenon? What has changed since the 80’s? What is 3D printing used for? What are the practices of 3D printing community?
9. Early Golden age of 3D Printing Cathedrals 3D Printing started already early 80’s Prototyping, focused on business needs (B2B) Knowledge and skills in ”cathedrals” - patented and held by ”priests” in companies
10. 2006 - RepRap is about making self-replicating machines, and making them freely available for the benefit of everyone.
11. Necessary early innovator & adopter mass During early days of low-cost 3D printing learning curve was high Hacklabs – more than 1500 spaces globally, over 300 000 members Small market DIY culture Skilled people
12. Around 2010 People want to buy out of the box ready 3D printers! Lets package it! How to cross the chasm? Small market DIY culture Skilled people Big market ….
13. Three of the organisers of the NYC Hackerspace in Brooklyn: Drop the self-replication Requirement and focus on developing a consumer-friendly (out of the box) 3D printer.
14. 3D Printer Gold Rush 2010 > Open source / open source HW driven Consumer market targeted Low-cost Easy to use
15. Layman use cases for 3D printers Functional models Artistic items Spare parts Educational purposes Direct part production
16. InMoov is the first Open Source 3D printed life-size robot Global efforts
17. 3D printable object sharing platforms Shared publicly, free to reproduce and modify Thingiverse.com – more than 1 500 000 objects
18. Revolution - Freedom of creation Easy to use low-cost 3D printers Professional quality & affordable 3D printing services Millions of 3D printable & modifiable designs available online + design markets Easy to use 3D design tools in browser
