Rapid Prototyping Facilities
3 different kinds of machines:
1. A machine producing models in plaster (not for functional tests). This process is called ‘3D Printing’ or 3DP.
2. A machine producing models from fluid acrylic type of plastics. The process is SLA-like, make very small details in thin layers to 25 microns but is rather slow.
3. 2 machines producing models from a plastic thread. They are made from self-assembly kits and are very cheap. The process is called FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) and is rather fast compared to the aforementioned processes.

3
Manufacture and Fabrication Facilities1. Produce and engineering drawings and 3d sketches of the parts
2. Print them out on paper and go to discuss with Jan Frank Pedersen at the earliest opportunity.
3. Provide Jan with the files/drawings he requests and arrange with him a schedule of work and your deadline.

Proof of principle prototypes
Oversights revealed by the Prototypes
Concept 1 Concept 2 Concept 3
– Awkward assembly – Awkward assembly – Lock insecurity
revealed
– Very small increments
for code
– Cannot work in all
orientations
– More flimsy than
anticipated
– Code revealed under
tube
– To release bars must
first be raised
– Supporting pin are too
small
– More flimsy – Awkward to adjust code – Awkward to adjust code
– Lock insecurity
revealed
– Lock insecurity
revealed
+ Simplicity realised
+ More discreet than
anticipated
+ More sturdy + Dimensionally suited
+ An effective visual
deterrent
+ Locks securely even
when code is <2mm out

Prototype vs Production Model
Prototype parts Extruded parts
T cutter would have been required for
this section
Instead of using a T cutter to form the extra lip Mill Square then fasten will screws.

Sun cream on demand
What would a prototype be able to tell us about the product (excluding the
market) ?

14
Protovate your product
Taking your own project and your list of burning
questions, design at least 1 prototype and test for the product’s function or the production feasibility.
