Minimum number of registered students :7
We recommend having basic or intermediate knowledge of Grasshopper3D, with some understanding of data trees and their structure, as well as basic experience in FDM 3D printing.
This course is based on the instructor`s book Advanced 3D printing with Grasshopper: Clay and FDM, a recommended option as guide with many examples. Therefore this course is a good complement to it, that extends it and could solve some doubts.
PROGRAM
The course is scheduled in 6 modules, 3 per day:
Module #1 is an introduction to G-Code structure, firmware, FDM 3d printing and its configuration inside Grasshopper in its most common workflows.
Module #2 understands the main G orders in G-code and we will set a first file in Grasshopper for custom 3D printing using spiralized mode.
Module #3 is related to visualization, non-planar 3d printing with isocurves and the consequent variable flow.
Module #4 adds more complex features as bases, travels and retractions in Grasshopper.
Module #5 explains some study cases, as well as some time for questions and doubts of the attendance.
Module #6 explains some study cases, as well as some time for questions and doubts of the attendance.
