The general objective of the project is to maximize potential benefits of 3D technology and improve resource efficiency which can be realized in both production and phases of manufacturing and designing products. In the university, the Additive Manufacturing Research Laboratory (AMREL) , a state-of-the art 3D printing research facility equipped with the latest machines is funded by the government . To maximize the benefits that the community can get from, it is deemed necessary to educate the people about its working principle.
Background
Among the manufacturing technologies, additive manufacturing, better known as 3D printing covers a wide range of the production technologies that fabricate products layer by layer. Additive Manufacturing is the process of joining materials to make parts from a 3-dimensional model one layer at a time; synonymous to Additive Manufacturing (AM) is 3D printing, direct digital manufacturing, freeform fabrication, rapid prototyping, additive fabrication, additive layer manufacturing.
Impact
Based on the survey conducted to 2900 Bataenos, it was fount out that people in the province are aware on the existence of 3D Printing Technology, but most of them do not know the working principle and application 3D Printing Technology.
The additive manufacturing will open the doors to previously unimaginable possibilities, and every single 3D-printed product will unfold more innovation. However, only few explored on the awareness and overall sentiment of people towards the potential impact of the technology. This problem could be solved by implementing a wide-reaching project such as this.
The program will be open, especially for Educators, LGU workers; AFAB, economic zones, local businesses, local academic institutions, etc. highly qualified and experienced DR3EM/AMReL faculty, researchers and students will facilitate each activity.
