Day 11: (Wed Feb 19, Week 6) 3D Printed TPU Parts

Notes for 2025-02-19.

Assignments

Due Friday morning: please design a test part to be printed from TPU in a class batch. Please submit your STL files to the CSR-S25 3D Print Queue folder. Your documentation will go in Exercise 10 Shared Folder.

Added note: I apologize that ‘documentation’ was not precisely specified for the TPU design assignment, but the expectation was similar to :ref:`laser-cut-mold-exercise` and :ref:`3D-print-mold-exercise` in the form of brief text comments and photo documentation of the final result.

Due Monday: Exercise: Research Study: please read your related technical citations in detail and be prepared to teach the class specific lessons gained which inform your project.

If you did not clearly identify and sketch a concrete proof-of-concept experiment which supports your project, please go back and finish and update your result for Exercise: Research Study in Exercise 9 Shared Folder. If you did articulate a proof-of-concept experiment, please prepare drawings and a parts list for individual discussion.

Agenda

  1. Finish review of Exercise: Research Study results (Exercise 9 Shared Folder).

  2. Discussion of part bonding.

  3. Discussion of TPU part design.

  4. Walkthrough of demo TPU part.

  5. Discussion of new assignments.
