ʻO ka ʻenehana paʻi 3D kahi ʻenehana e kū nei i ka ʻoihana hana a me ka ʻoihana hana, a he mea hoʻohui ikaika hoʻi i nā mea hana. I kēia manawa, ua hoʻomaka a hoʻololi paha ka mīkini paʻi 3D i ke ʻano hana kuʻuna ma kekahi mau kahua hana.

I loko o nā māhele noi he nui o nā mea paʻi 3D, ma lalo o nā kūlana e pono ai nā ʻoihana e noʻonoʻo i ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā paʻi 3D? Pehea ʻoe e koho ai i kahi paʻi 3D?

1. ʻAʻole hiki ke hana ʻia e ka ʻenehana kuʻuna

Ma hope o nā makahiki he mau makahiki o ka hoʻomohala ʻana, ua hiki i ka ʻoihana hana kuʻuna ke hoʻokō i ka hapa nui o nā pono hana, akā aia kekahi mau pono ʻole. E like me nā mea paʻakikī paʻakikī, hana maʻamau nui, a pēlā aku. ʻElua mau hihia i hōʻike ʻia: GE additive 3D mīkini paʻi pahu wahie nozzle, 3D mīkini paʻi niho ʻike ʻole.

ʻO nā nozzle wahie i hoʻohana ʻia i ka ʻenekini LEAP, no ka laʻana, ua hui mua ʻia mai 20 mau ʻāpana i hana ʻia e ka mīkini maʻamau. Ua hoʻolālā hou ʻo GE additive iā ia, e hui pū ana i 20 mau ʻāpana i hoʻokahi holoʻokoʻa. I kēia hihia, ʻaʻole hiki ke hana ʻia e nā ʻano mīkini kuʻuna, akā hiki i ka mīkini paʻi 3D ke hoʻokō pono. Hāʻawi pū ia i ka nui o nā pōmaikaʻi, me ka hoʻemi ʻana he 25 pākēneka o ka paona nozzle wahie, ka piʻi ʻana o ʻelima mau manawa i ke ola a me ka hoʻemi ʻana he 30 pākēneka o nā kumukūʻai hana. Hoʻopuka ʻo GE i kēia manawa ma kahi o 40,000 wahie nozzles i ka makahiki, nā mea paʻi 3D metala.

Eia kekahi, he hihia maʻamau nā braces i ʻike ʻole ʻia. Loaʻa i kēlā me kēia pūʻulu i ʻike ʻole ʻia he mau kakini pale, kēlā me kēia me ke ʻano ʻokoʻa iki. No kēlā me kēia niho, ua uhi ʻia kekahi ʻano ʻokoʻa me ke kiʻiʻoniʻoni, kahi e pono ai kahi paʻi paʻi kiʻi 3D. No ka mea, ʻaʻole pono ke ʻano kuʻuna o ka hana ʻana i ka pulu niho. Ma muli o ka maikaʻi o nā pale ʻike ʻole, ua ʻae ʻia lākou e kekahi poʻe ʻōpio. Nui nā mea hana i nā pale ʻike ʻole ma ka home a ma waho, a nui ka mākeke.

2. Loaʻa i ka ʻenehana kuʻuna ke kumukūʻai kiʻekiʻe a me ka haʻahaʻa haʻahaʻa

Aia kekahi ʻano hana ʻē aʻe i hiki ke noʻonoʻo ʻia e hoʻohana i ka mīkini paʻi 3D, ʻo ia hoʻi, ʻo ke ʻano kuʻuna he kiʻekiʻe ke kumu kūʻai a haʻahaʻa haʻahaʻa. Maikaʻi no nā huahana me ka koi liʻiliʻi, ua kiʻekiʻe ke kumu kūʻai o ka wehe ʻana i ka mold, a ʻoi aku ka haʻahaʻa o ka hana ʻana o ka wehe ʻole ʻana. ʻOiai ua hoʻouna ʻia nā kauoha i ka hale hana, pono e kali lōʻihi. I kēia manawa, hōʻike hou ka mīkini paʻi 3D i kona mau pono. Hiki i nā mea lawelawe paʻi paʻi 3D ke hāʻawi i nā hōʻoia e like me ka hoʻomaka ʻana mai ka ʻāpana 1 a me ka lawe ʻana i 24-hola, kahi e hoʻomaikaʻi nui ai i ka pono. Aia kekahi ʻōlelo ʻo "3D printer is addictive". Hoʻohana mālie nā hui R&D i ka mīkini paʻi 3D, a i ka wā e hoʻohana ai, ʻaʻole lākou makemake hou e hoʻohana i nā ʻano kuʻuna.

Ua hoʻolauna pū kekahi mau ʻoihana prescient i kā lākou paʻi paʻi 3D ponoʻī, nā ʻāpana hana, nā mea pono, nā mold a pēlā aku ma ka hale hana.
