News Advanced Prototyping Minor Exhibition Q1 2021 During an exhibition focusing on prototyping with/for digital fabrication on the faculty of Industrial Design Engineering students of the Advanced Prototyping Minor presented their work. Graduation Marc Aliana Guardia | Recycling 3D prints Marc Aliana Guardia has graduated from the faculty of Industrial Design Engineering with his research on recycling 3D prints in a prototyping facility. With his research Marc has investigated the opportunity of reusing the PLA waste stream that comes from prototyping facilities. Recyling waste and failed prints back to FDM filament, closing the material loop. In his research Marc investigated the role of FDM in prototyping design for product development, the most popular material and its current end-of-life scenario. He identified an opportunity in low-fidelity prototyping, where high mechanical properties and high-quality prototypes are not always required. He tested and demonstrated that recycled PLA filament produced with a desktop recycling setup can be 3D printed with a desktop FDM printer, achieving similar low‑fidelity prototyping capabilities for design projects as virgin PLA filament, thus enabling the use of recycled PLA from 3D printing waste for low-fidelity prototyping. The findings of his reserach are converged and conceptualized into a future vision, a roadmap and a short-term solution to explore and facilitate the implementation of PLA recycling for prototyping.

Collaboration Festo Today 15th of April Milly Bon graduated on her research into 3D printing integrated electronics. Building a cost-effective, compact and simple 3D printer that can print electronics for technical integration of prototypes. She developed a new technique for printing solder paste into 3D prints. Project MARCH Collaboration CDAM and Oceanz collaborated with project MARCH to help them realize their current prototype exoskeleton MARCH IVc. Project MARCH is a student team of the TU Delft which is involved in the development of a user-friendly and versatile exoskeleton, a motorized robotic suit, that can be used to get people with a spinal cord injury to stand up and walk again. CDAM and Oceanz had a helping hand in the design and creation of the 3D printed covers that cover all the electronics on the exoskeleton. Oceanz's professional 3D printing facilities were used to print the covers. Exoskeleton Covers Assembly After a year of hard work the team of project MARCH revealed the new exoskeleton on the 20th of August with a live demonstration. During this demonstration their pilot Sjaan demonstrated the capabilities of the exoskeleton by walking the Cybathlon run. Now the 5th project MARCH team has handed over the ropes to the new student team which will continue with realizing the vision of project MARCH.
