Abstract


Rapid prototyping or additive manufacturing usually known as 3D printing or layer manufacturing is a very rapid direction of development regarding manufacturing technology. The article presents step by step methodology on the possibilities to use 3D printing technology for the production (fabrication and assembling) of prototype related to modern approach for engineering teaching methodology related to concept of circular economy. The main advantages of using 3D printing result in its abilities to obtain and produce directly needed components from CAD model, whose file is the information srealce for generating STL (Standard Triangulation Language) file, which is needed to start working on 3D printer.
The paper presents an example of 3D printing using FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) process and ABS plastic filament from which the component parts of the differential are made, preceded by the CAD phase in SolidWorks software and completed with the assembly phase of the differential transmission. It has been pointed out that the 3D printing process were developed with CAM software based on CAD model.
