What do a customised orthosis, a zinc injection mould and laser cooling have in common? In all these cases, 3D printing, combined with advanced design methods, can contribute to improved functionality and efficiency in the final solution.
In the next webinar in the Technology Deep Dive series, Ondřej Kurkin will present short case studies illustrating specific applications of these technologies:
- Healthcare: From orthoses customised to individual patients to custom-designed toothbrushes for effective cleaning.
- Mould manufacturing: How topological optimisation and mathematically defined structures help improve heat transfer efficiency in zinc injection moulding.
- Laser technologies: How advanced structures can be used to design more efficient cooling systems.
- Defence industry: How 3D printing aids prototyping and reduces the weight of components.
We will look at how topological optimisation can be used to reduce material consumption and the weight of individual components whilst maintaining the required mechanical properties. Come along, get inspired by specific examples, and find out where 3D printing could benefit your products.
The webinar is part of the Technology Deep Dive series, which takes an in-depth look at a specific technology or research topic together with an expert in the field. Each session goes deeper into the underlying principles, approaches and real-world applications, offering an opportunity to explore the topic from a specialist perspective and better understand the connections between technology, research and practical outcomes.
