Workshop: 3D printing

Discover 3D printing as a creative tool. In this hands-on workshop, you will expand your skills from prototype to finished mould.
 Design Zentrum Hamburg

The printer as a tool for your design process

3D printing is more than just spitting out an end product layer by layer. In this four-hour hands-on workshop, you will learn how to use the printer as a tool in the design process. From final products to flexible moulds, templates, jig & fixture prototypes or as quick material experiments. We combine digital models with classic materials such as silicone, plaster or recycled bio-plastics and explore how to use printed parts as a catalyst for, rather than instead of, other manufacturing processes.

What you can expect

  • Experience material diversity - from TPU flex to PLA and nylon.
  • Tool instead of trophy - understand when printing is an intermediate step and how it fuels other processes.
  • Rapid moulding - pouring silicone or concrete into printed moulds.
  • Iterative prototyping - printing jigs & fixtures to quickly mould wood, textile or metal.
  • Best practice tips - nozzles, layer heights, infill tricks and tips for robust moulds.
