3D full color mannequin of a personality from Nilian’s IP animation
Amsterdam—Mimaki, the main producer of commercial inkjet printers, slicing plotters, and 3D printers, will take part in 3D print exhibitions the world over in Might and June 2023. With Autodesk, Inc, the main supplier of design software program, Mimaki will current the right way to deliver 3D information from the design, engineering, and leisure industries to life by using Autodesk software program and Mimaki’s full-colour 3D know-how.
Autodesk supplies design software program for the Media & Leisure, Product Design & Manufacturing, and Structure, Engineering, & Building industries. By combining Autodesk’s broadly used software program with Mimaki’s 3D printers, the 3DUJ-553 and 3DUJ-2207, that are able to producing full-colour fashions in additional than 10 million colors utilizing the UV-cured inkjet technique, 3D information could be delivered to the actual world in full color.
At this yr’s exhibitions, Mimaki will current a full-colour world created with Autodesk software program and Mimaki 3D printers by a wide range of functions, together with:
1.Media & Leisure
Character design for video games and animations by Nilian Studios (Canada), utilizing Autodesk software program with Mimaki’s 3DUJ-553 and 3DUJ-2207 for the manufacturing and presentation of unique figures. The corporate makes use of Autodesk Maya and 3ds Max in each stage of the manufacturing course of, from early animatics to 3D modelling, texture mapping, rigging, animation, and remaining rendering. For the primary time, Nilian utilized the 3DUJ-553 to create full-colour 3D prints of characters taken immediately from their video games and animations. The Mimaki 3DUJ can reproduce complicated options and extremely detailed colors from 3D information, permitting small-lot manufacturing at an inexpensive value and quick supply time, a tough job to realize with different manufacturing strategies.
“I’m so excited to see our characters come to life! A full color 3D print provides us a greater imaginative and prescient of the merchandising potentialities of our product by bringing our digital belongings into the actual world,” feedback Ali Chenari, Artistic Director and Founding father of Nilian Studios. “It should additionally assist us showcase our characters to our purchasers, making it attainable for us to ship them precise fashions in the case of pitching an thought.”
2. Product Design & Manufacturing
Product design by Autodesk’s Boston Know-how Heart (USA). Visualization of the interior construction of a generative designed brake pedal for Stewart-Haas Racing, an American inventory automotive racing crew, 3D printed utilizing Mimaki’s 3DUJ-553. As automotive racing groups are continually searching for new design and manufacturing strategies to enhance the protection, efficiency, and weight discount of their automobiles in an effort to win extra races. Stewart-Haas Racing partnered with Autodesk to cut back the load of their brake pedal, one of the crucial vital parts of high driver Cole Custer’s Ford Mustang, utilizing Fusion360’s “generative design” function.
In consequence, the brake pedal’s new design decreased weight by 32% and elevated stiffness by 50%, supplied that it might stand up to braking actions equal to 3000 laps of a driving course.
3. Structure, Engineering, & Building
Civil engineering design fashions by Fukken Co., Ltd (Japan), selling options to points confronted by the development trade by built-in 3D information administration utilizing Autodesk’s BIM/CIM software program and promotion of digital transformation. This method permits for the sharing and administration of knowledge by 3D information amongst all events concerned in every stage of the method, together with planning, surveying, designing, setting up, managing, and sustaining. Civil engineering fashions are printed on Mimaki’s 3DUJ-553 to construct consensus with residents and different stakeholders. The corporate makes use of Autodesk’s AEC Assortment as its BIM/CIM software program. It additionally makes use of the Mimaki 3DUJ-553 full-colour 3D printer to supply fashions from the 3D information it has designed.
A consultant of Fukken commented: “In 2021, we invested within the Mimaki 3DUJ-553, glad with its skill to precise small particulars, which had been tough with the plaster-based full-colour 3D printer we had been utilizing. On the 3DUJ-553, we will additionally cowl small components with clear ink to stop them from breaking.”
Mimaki is dedicated to being a forward-thinking, development-oriented group with a administration imaginative and prescient centred on delivering “one thing new, one thing totally different.” Constantly pursuing new technological breakthroughs and producing contemporary worth for its clients, you will discover Mimaki presenting the Autodesk x Mimaki Full-Color World on the following exhibitions in Might and June:
?Fast Tech 3D (Erfurt, Germany) Might ninth – eleventh
?EDIX Tokyo (Tokyo, Japan) Might tenth – twelfth
?TCT 3SIXTY 2023 (Birmingham, England) June sixth – eighth
?Subsequent Technology 3D Printer Exhibition / Japan Manufacturing World (Tokyo, Japan) June twenty second – twenty fourth
