Teaching staff: | Adrián Garcés, Co-founder of TecnoEspai, a digital manufacturing center that offers printing, scanning of objects and people, design and workshop / training services. |
Targets: | ![]() A basic introduction to digital manufacturing through 3D printing with modeling tools such as Google Sketchup where you can create your own object. Over the last few years, 3D printing has become an upward trend in the technology sector. There are even different types of 3D printers available to anyone who wants to buy them. Would you like to know really how they work and what do they consist of? In this 2 hour course, in addition to explaining the origins and limits, we will also create objects in 3D modeling for yourself. |
Contents: | 3D Printers Presentation (45 ') What it is and what it allows to make a 3D printer Functioning of 3D printing technology Exploring the limits: How far can we get? Samples of examples and possibilities: 3D works from the most original to the most useful Materials with which it is currently being printed and in which it is being investigated Different forms of current and future three-dimensional printing (jewels, toys, professional prototypes, gifts, accessories, kitchen utensils, tools ...) Introduction to modeling (1h) Basic and individual modeling with Google Sketchup. Thanks to this free Google tool we will learn to model the fastest and most simple way possible, original and unique models for each student. We will depart from common tools and processes, and we will explore together different possibilities to achieve the desired design. It is recommended to think or have prepared a simple basic design before attending the course. The models should not be larger than 5cm x 5cm x 5cm. Production and poster printing The student will be shown which requirements must comply with a figure so that it can be printed optimally in 3D. We will know the most common file extensions to work with 3D printing and some tips for not having problems when requesting an impression. Important note: All students must bring a laptop and the "Google Sketchup" program that can be downloaded for free. A model will be printed during the course so that the students can see the process live. |
Level of the course: | This course has a basic level, that is, it does not require prior knowledge. It is recommended that the student have notions of design programs such as Paint or Photoshop so that they are familiar with Google Sketchup tools. |
Recipients: | Designers who want to discover new methods of printing. Creative professionals who are aware of current trends and want to experience them first hand. To all those creative minds and handmakers who enjoy artisanal creation and creativity. To all those who feel interest and curiosity about the innovations in technology and who want to discover new possibilities. |
Shape of payment: | Payment through your account number, which you must provide at the time of registration. |
