This work was carried out for my Master Thesis in Rapid Prototyping at University Of Wollongong (Manufacturing Research Laboratory). The cross-section being created using GMAW robot is that of a crankcase.
I thank Dr Devi Saini, Dr John Norrish, Dr Alexander Nicholson and Diego for their kind support. I also thank my family for the encouragement that I have received all my life.

Fabbers (a.k.a 3D Printers or rapid prototyping machines) are a relatively new form of manufacturing that builds 3D objects by carefuly depositing materials drop by drop, layer by layer. Slowly but surely, with the right set of materials and a geometric blueprint, you can fabricate complex objects.

Believe it or not you can build your own fabber, Fab@home is a site with all what you need to build your own fabber, Our goal is to explore the potential of universal fabrication: Machines that can use multiple materials to fabricate complete, active systems.
Inspired by this history, the goal of this project is to offer an open-source, low-cost, personal SFF system kit, which we call “Fab@Home”. The aim of this project is to put SFF technology into the hands of those same curious, inventive, and entrepreneurial citizens. In addition, through this Wiki web site we hope to inspire users of Fab@Home to exchange their ideas for applications and their improvements to the hardware and software with us and each other. Several machines are already in use.

Rapid Prototyping Using Legos.

(note: CAD files were made in MLCad, not LDraw, as some of you have pointed out….)

For Mechanics of Manipulations (16-741) at CMU in Spring 2009, Gurdayal Koonjul and Ned Fox (me) made a system for the rapid prototyping of Lego structures. Modelling the structure in MLCad (a free Lego CAD program), the save file is parsed in MATLAB and the output file is then sent to a DENSO 6-DOF arm. The arm picks pieces up from pre-determined locations and places them where they belong.

As this was only a semester-long project, there is lots of work still to be done, namely:
-Using webcam to find the correct pieces rather than pieces lying on a template.
-Being able to construct part even if the lines of data in the save file are not already in the correct order (ie top pieces first rather than bottom pieces first).
-Being able to place pieces that have been rotated about axes other than the Z axis.
-Other interference problems with end effector.
-Being able to parse another CAD file format (Solidworks, ProE, etc) and build that model using Legos.

If anyone is more interested, let me know and I can provide more information on what we’ve done and some problems we encountered.

The technology

Starting from a 3D image, a part is built slice by slice from bottom to top, in a vessel of liquid polymer that hardens when struck by a laser beam.
Schematic overview of the stereolithography process

Starting from your STL file, the required supports for overhangs and cavities are automatically generated in the model under construction. The support and model files are then “cut” into thin horizontal slices and programmed into the stereolithography machine.

This machine then uses a computer controlled laser to draw the bottom cross section onto the surface of a liquid polymer that hardens where struck by the laser. The part is then lowered to a depth corresponding to the section’s thickness and the next cross section is then drawn directly on top of the previous one. This is repeated until the part is finished.
