Collaborative Buick Riviera Coach Light Project
Although 3D printing is only one piece of the puzzle, the Stratasys F370 and J850 were key players in this customer project that involved reverse engineering a Buick Riviera Coach light. A HandySCAN Black Elite was used to 3D scan the part, then reverse-engineered using Geomagic Design X, CAD modifications were performed in SOLIDWORKS, and the finished model was printed using both FDM and PolyJet technology. https://www.youtube.com/embed/3Mc7VxXQgg8?enablejsapi=1&origin=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.goengineer.com

3D Printed Topographical Map Prevents Future Flood Damage in Mid-Michigan
When a devastating flood ripped through mid-Michigan after two dams collapsed, students from Mid Michigan College’s Phi Theta Kappa (PTK) began their research to investigate the cause and help prevent future floods from devastating their community, and others as well. After conducting their research, they believed a 3D topographical map of Gladwin County and the surrounding waterways would be extremely beneficial. GoEngineer helped the students create their map with the use of 3D printing and FDM technology.
