Description
Design is the phase where abstract ideas tend to end up with form and function. There have been a lot of improvements in the last decade in design for 3D Printing. From an advanced manufacturing point of view, 3D Printing is a promising technology to come up with prototypes and products whose geometry is relatively complex, and in some cases when the parts are integrated from several pieces to one. This case can be recognized in the bike frame, which is our case study as an example. The problem that needs to be questioned is: Can we 3D Print the bike frame as a whole? The strengths and weaknesses of actual development and future research will be presented in this article.

3D Printing of the Bike Frame Prototype

Design is the phase where abstract ideas tend to end up with form and function. There have been a lot of improvements in the last decade in design for 3D Printing. From an advanced manufacturing point of view, 3D Printing is a promising technology to come up with prototypes and products whose geometry is relatively complex, and in some cases when the parts are integrated from several pieces to one. This case can be recognized in the bike frame, which is our case study as an example. The problem that needs to be questioned is: Can we 3D Print the bike frame as a whole?
