16_applications and implications

  • what will it do?

Optimize router bits for milling

  •  who’s done what beforehand?

Industry customizes bit but for routing not milling

  • what materials and components will be required?

3d printer, CNC mill, Foam

  • where will they come from?

Available at lab

  • how much will it cost?

Cost is not an issue

  • what parts and systems will be made?

Router bits

  • what processes will be used?

Customizing bit shape based on predefined parameters

  • what tasks need to be completed?

Test printing of bit at different densities | Test milling with bits | Match pattern type to mill shape.

Develop an interface that makes use of the milling path (g code) as an input to customize the bit’s shape.

  • what questions need to be answered?

Find a relation between the 2 g codes (Mill path – g code  | Bit – gcode)

  • How can one code impact the other?

What are the optimal settings when 3d printing a bit?

  •  what is the schedule?

15/5-22/5 print and mill

22/5- 29/5 develop interface

  •  how will it be evaluated?

Based on milled outcome comparative measure could be applied to evaluate the relation between bit shape and pattern.
