Expanding Applied Learning

Students Gain High-Demand Skills with 3D Printing

Dunwoody College of Technology (Dunwoody) was founded in Minneapolis, Minnesota, in 1914 to provide a rigorous, industry-focused technical education. As the region's oldest and only non-profit technical college, Dunwoody has garnered an international reputation for its successful approach.

Dunwoody incorporates hands-on, applied learning with 3D printing playing a crucial part in the curriculum. Students learn critical thinking and practical, real-world skills in high demand. “In the last three years, there has been a huge momentum increase in 3D printing at Dunwoody, and students want programs centered on it,” said E.J. Daigle, Dean of Robotics & Manufacturing at Dunwoody."

Complex Designs Fast

Deisgn Firm 3D Prints to Refine Ideas with Speed

At the Center for Advanced Design (CAD), a product development firm in Minnesota, USA, a team of design engineers specializes in creating complex surface geometry for the plastics industry. The agile team of six handles everything from industrial design concepts and digital sketching to assisting clients with implementation by building production tooling. Their ability to advance projects quickly keeps their specialized team very busy.

“We’ve carved a niche out for ourselves designing plastic components for customers in the power sports industry,” Jesse Hahne, partner at CAD, said. “Many of the larger companies we work for are very talented, but they move slower. When deadlines loom, they look to us to get their complex projects back on track.”

  • Stratasys F Series Tips and Tricks

These tips and tricks are designed to help you create better and more stable parts using PLA materials on any of the Stratasys F123™ Series 3D Printer.

  • Stratasys F123CR Composite Series

The F123CR printer series comprises the F190™CR and F370®CR composite printers, equipped with hardened components to operate with composite materials. Both systems are available with ABS-CF10 and FDM® Nylon-CF10 carbon fiber-reinforced composite materials. These materials operate with dedicated print heads for extended life. In addition, up to six engineering-grade thermoplastics are available for broader application versatility. Hands-free soluble support material enables printing highly complex parts and hands-free post-processing.

F123CR composite series printers have multiple features for ease of use and high uptime.

  • GrabCAD Print™ and Insight™ software provide a simple workflow and in-depth print process control

  • Stratasys FDM 3D Printers | F770

Accessible Large-Format FDM Printing

Industrial scale printing. Simplified.

Print big without the high capital investment of exclusive, large-format printers. The Stratasys F770™ 3D printer makes printing large, complex parts affordable, reliable, and easy.

Print large or print many.

The F770 is designed with size in mind. Print one or several large parts or take advantage of the printer’s generous capacity to make multiple parts for maximum productivity.

With the longest fully heated build chamber on the market, you can print a part that is 46 inches long on the diagonal. The spacious 13 cubic-foot build envelope opens up new opportunities for manufacturing, prototyping, and production-part part applications that aren’t available with smaller printers.

There’s no need to sacrifice part complexity either. The F770 uses soluble support material, which lets you design and print your parts free from design-for-manufacturability constraints or the limitations of printers with inferior support capability. The hands-free support removal process also minimizes post-processing, increasing your productivity.

  • Stratasys F770 Information

Reliable large-scale printing in a user-friendly, affordable system.

The F770™ offers one of the largest print volumes among Stratasys FDM® systems. With over 13 cubic feet of build volume and the widest build chamber (X direction) of any Stratasys FDM printer, the F770 provides the capability to build large parts or sizable assortments of smaller parts.

The F770 features industrial-grade technology for consistent, reliable performance and accurate results. Available model materials include two industry-standard thermoplastics available in three-layer thicknesses (slice heights). Soluble support material enables complex designs and hands-free post-processing.

GrabCAD Print™ software powers a streamlined workflow by printing directly from CAD files. Insight™ software is also included for more in-depth print file adjustment. The F770 is equipped with MTConnect, a manufacturing communications protocol, for factory-floor connectivity.
