Mr. Kiyoshi Yamaguchi
【Abstract】I will explain the basic technology of resin 3D printers.
In addition, I will explain the relationship between each method of 3D printer and the materials that can be used.
Why does simple FDM (MEX) printing fail with ABS even though success with PLA ?
I answer these questions that we usually feel when using a 3D printer.Jan. 31, 2025 (Fri.) 11:10-11:40Free Pre-Registration required

Project Senior Assistant Professor
Mr. Ryohei Yuasa
【Profile】Graduated from Chiba University, Graduate School of Engineering, Department of Design Science.
In 2019, he will lead the Tokyo 2020 podium production team to create 3D printed materials from recycled materials.
2021-present, he is participating in a project to create a resource-recycling society in Kamakura City, Kanagawa Prefecture, with the participation of industry, government, academia, and the private sector.
He has been continuously surveying AM technology at Japan and abroad, and has spoken at Formnext and TCT conferences, and has been involved in the organization of the 4DFF conference in Japan.
He has participated in the annual Expert Survey for the 3D printing industry media, and has provided suggestions on the future possibilities of AM technology, mainly from the perspective of resource recycling and the environment.
Specialties: design engineering, digital fabrication, 3D printing materials, long life of emotional attachment.
【Abstract】In recent years, there has been a lot of attention paid to cases of environmentally friendly and at the same time citizen-friendly community development by using resources such as recycled plastic produced in the community to create items unique to the community through appropriate manufacturing in appropriate quantities opened up by AM. In the lecture, the author will introduce a case study in Japan, A Town to be a Junkan sha in Kamakura City, Kanagawa Prefecture, which the author and others are involved in, and discuss the future possibilities of manufacturing using local resources and the way it should be done by AM, including overseas cases.
