Not all of the jobs surrounding the additive manufacturing and 3D Printing industry are glamorous. Sure, we are able to create amazing prototypes out of thin air, but there is also maintenance and up keep involved with the machines and tools used to create the parts! Here is a typical moment during our end of the month resin inventory check.
Here is what happens when we need to finish a build and the SLA machine is low on resin and we are waiting on more to arrive at Realize headquarters. Sometimes you just use whatever you can to raise the resin level and finish the build. Whatever it takes to get the prototypes done in a timely manner. All hands on deck!
One of the greatest joys in life is enjoying your favorite candy. Another cool thing at Realize is finding products we created at the store! Here is one prototype we worked on that we spotted in the aisles and enjoyed this week.
The NFL season is upon us. Next week we will have games to watch that actually mean something. I’m sure many of you will be drafting and competing in a fantasy football league. We have a very exciting new project that we are working on and here is a sneak peak of it. Next week Realize will deliver the “World’s first 3D printed (downloadable file) Fantasy Football Plaque. ” For now, here is a prototype of our trophy for the Champion at Realize. Still some work to do but can’t wait to see the custom finishing on this beauty. Stay tuned.
The Realize Photo of the Week: Sunshine on my SLA machine makes me happy. Walking through Realize headquarters is always fun and sometimes the prototypes being created in our SLA and 3D Printing machines look like something other than what they really are. This build certainly takes on a happy vibe!
