Week 12

 Delving Deep into 3D Printing

In this week, our group is tasked to delve into one aspect of 3D printing to deepen our knowledge of this useful technology. In the probable future, engineers may have to produce their own devices or products to (for example); replace broken parts or just to make an extra apparatus to make their work easier.

Our class was tasked to gather deeper knowledge in the matter of the different manufacturing principles of 3D printing. The Enterprise was tasked to delve deeper into the Additive Manufacturing method of 3D printing

What is Additive Manufacturing?


Advantages of AM


How is is used?


Next, we will cover 3 different methods that can be used for Additive Manufacturing

The different methods are:

  • Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM)
  • Stereolithography (SLA)
  • Selective Laser Sintering
The slides below are created to further explain the 3 methods:

Activity 1: Penicilin

  Antibiotic Broad Category: Healthcare Sub-Category: Pharmaceutical Chemical Product: Penicillin Application of chemical engineering principles in the production of chemical product: Firstly, Penicillium mold is required to produce penicillin. In mass production the mold will be placed in fermentation tanks ( fermentation ). In the tank, the penicillium mold will be added to a mixture added with sugar. As the mold grows and ferments, penicillin will be produced and dissolve in nutrient broth(initially water and sugar). The nutrient broth will then be filtrated ( filtration ) and mixed with an acid. The broth-acid mixture will then be added into a solvent (butyl acetate) in order to carry out the liquid-liquid extraction of the penicillin. Penicillin will then be obtained by means of evaporation. citation: Dayalan, S. A., Darwin, P., & Prakash, S. (2011). Comparative study on production, purification of penicillin by Penicillium chrysogenum isolated from soil and citrus sample...
