[3D PRINTING IS AN ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING TECHNOLOGY WHICH MAKES IT POSSIBLE TO TURN 3D MODELED DESIGNS INTO CUSTOM SOLID OBJECTS ON DEMAND.]

[３Ｄプリントは 立体印刷機で 物体を創る技術]

[THIS TECHNOLOGY HAS BEEN ADAPTED BY MANY ARTISTS AND DESIGNERS, MANY OF WHOM HAVE COME TOGETHER THROUGH THE ONLINE COMMUNITY OF SHAPEWAYS.]

[この技術を駆使する人々が集う サイトが「シェイプウェイズ」だ]

3D printing has been around

25年前からある 技術だがー

for almost 25 years now.

【シェイプウェイズ代表 ピーター・バイマーシャウズン】 長い間ー

[PETER WEIJMARSHAUSEN CEO, SHAPEWAYS] But for a long time it was used

エンジニアが 試作品作りに 使うだけだった

for engineers and by engineers

2007年に気付いた

for prototyping new products

一般の人も この技術で ものづくりをすべきだと

that they would then mass produce.

「プリンタで アイデアを形に｣とね

What we did in 2007

【シェイプウェイズと ３Ｄプリント】

is we realized basically that

試作品を早く作れるの

"Hey. Why don't we use this amazing technology

[ナタリア・クラスノデブスカ 宝石デザイナー] 昔は 色んな素材でー

to give anyone access to manufacturing."

原型をかたどってたのがー

Why don't we use this technology, these 3D printers

今は パソコンで可能に

to make actual, final products?

ＣＡＤでデザインし 印刷するだけ

[SHAPEWAYS + 3D PRINTING]

３Ｄプリントは アートと科学を融合する手法

The 3D printing

頭に浮かんだイメージをー

it's a rapid prototyping technology.

最新技術で形にするの

[NATALIA KRASNODEBSKA COMMUNITY MANAGER/JEWELRY DESIGNER] The same way that you might carve something out of wax

[モードラボ ３Ｄプリント・ワークショップ]

or make a little sculpture

３Ｄプリントは 素材をー

glue a bunch of matchsticks together and make a castle

[ジル・アコス モードラボ主宰] 立体的に重ねる手法

is the same way now you might sit down at your computer

そう考えると 可能性は無限だ

and use a CAD program

特に注目されてるのが 素材と立体性をー

Rhino or Armea

大小関係なく どう生かすか

to sculpt something and then print it out.

例えば 心臓病の患者は 体をスキャンし 移植用のー

So, for me 3D printing was a way

臓器を特注したり

to bring together art and science.

大規模なビル建設にも 応用できる

I was able to express the artistic thing

プラスチック以外にも セラミックやバイオ素材などー

that I could see in my head

あらゆるニーズに 対応可能

but use really precise techniques

そういう意味でも ３Ｄプリントの 将来性や機能性はー

and technology to realize that.

注目の的だ

[MODELAB 3D PRINTING WORKSHOP]

色々試すには いいタイミングね いつかアパレル業界も 最新技術でー

If you understand 3D printing to mean

[メアリー・ホアン ブランド設立者] 変わるかもしれない

[GIL AKOS MODELAB] the deposition and/or fusing of material by layer

デジタルファブリケーションと ソフトウェアの技術でー

it really opens up what you could consider 3D printing to be.

デジタル世代の服を 作ってる

I think that most interesting advancements

常に先駆者でいたいしー

in terms of where 3D printing is and is going

３Ｄソフトを使った 初のブランドにしたい

have to do with dimensionality and materials,

３Ｄプリンタを 採用する理由はー

both at the small scale of dimensions

縫製の必要がないから

and the large scale.

１機で 複雑なデザインまで 作れるのは 大きな利点よ

People are getting parts scanned in their body

これは３Ｄビキニ

to get custom implants made

特徴は この生成的な素材

for like, if they're having heart troubles

本物の布地と同じように しなやかに体にー

and things like that.

フィットするの

Or at the very, very big scale

まず 形をプログラミングするとー

like the large Gantry Mounted building scale applications

ソフトが 布のような柔軟性を もたせるような模様にしてくれる

I think those are really interesting

端には小さな丸が密集し 中央にいくほど大きな丸が

and then, shifting out of plastics

ビキニに合う 美しい模様だし 機能性だって ちゃんとある

into things like ceramics

他には 靴も作ったけど 反応は良かった

like other biological materials

お店に専用プリンタを置き 靴を作るのが夢

that people are looking at printing in.

または 自宅プリンタでも 靴を印刷できたらステキ

Really, that opens up what 3D printing is

最新技術を生かすには インスピレーションが大事

and what its applications can be

我々は クリエイターらが 楽しく簡単にアイデアをー

in an exponential rate

共有できる場を設けた

in terms of where it would go

「シェイプウェイズ」では 好きなデザインをアップしー

and what you would do with it.

友達とシェアしたり 店を開いてー

It's a good time for experimentation.

自分のデザインを 世界中の人に売ることも

It's a good time to think about

身近な技術になったよ

how something that's as old as the clothing industry

ハード面だけでなく プログラムも読みやすくなりー

[MARY HUANG FOUNDER, CONTINUUM FASHION] could be redefined with new technologies.

独学で技術を学ぶための リソースも増えた

We use digitical fabrication technologies

特別な人が使う技術という かつて存在した壁がー

and software techniques

突然 取り払われたんだ

to invent what fashion design means for a digital age.

今や 世界は情報に 溢れていて 誰もがー

Artists are always the early adapters.

好きなことができる時代に

We essentially want to be the first fashion label that's software.

最新技術は 未来の可能性を 示唆してくれる

We started working with 3D printing

自分のアイデアが 現時点では早すぎてもー

because we like this idea of

いずれ環境が整えば 実現が可能になるよね

could we make clothing without sewing.

３Ｄプリント革命を パソコン革命と 比較する人も多い

Having one machine that can make really impossible shapes

プリンタは普及しなくてもー

is a huge benefit.

商品の方が 各家庭に渡る日はくるかも

So, this is a 3D printed bikini.

字幕翻訳　日本映像翻訳アカデミー 字幕監修　大石レナ

The design of the bikini

was really about designing this generative textile

like, designing a way for 3D printing

to be almost like fabric

and be flexible and fit to the body.

And so, how this is done is

after we model this 3D shape

it actually fills the surface that you want with this geometry

that creates this fabric-like structure.

It packs the circles closer and smaller at the edges

and then towards the middle sections you have bigger circles

and this is nice because it actually looks interesting

for a bikini

and it's aesthetic as well as functional.

So, we've done some work with 3D printing.

We felt that people really understood shoes.

So, our goal was to actually have a dedicated shoe printer in the store

and then people could print their shoes

or you could even have basically a printer you could buy

just to be able to make yourself as many shoes as you want.

Inspiration, I think is one of the things

that most people need to really get started.

Especially with new technology

so, what we've therefore created

are creators in our co-creation platform

is where you can adapt in a very functional way existing in science.

So, at Shapeways we built a basic platform

to enable people to upload and print the designs they care for.

You can share it with your friends.

You can even open a shop

and you can start selling your new invention

your new creative idea

to a worldwide audience.

The one thing that's really interesting about this technology

is that it's more accessible.

Because it's more accessible

it's not only the hardware's more accessible

it's also the language that it's been coded in

is more accessible.

Also, the learning resources that you need

to be able to do it yourself is also more accessible.

So, now all of a sudden

the big walls that existed before

in terms of who had the privilege of being able to create what

and largely dictate how people used it

are gone.

But again, I think it just goes down to the fact that

information is everwhere now.

Everyone has access to it

and it's very easy to do whatever you want with it.

The technology that exists today

it also shapes the way that you think about

what the possibilities of tomorrow might be.

So, if you have a great idea

that idea might not be ready

to come into the world yet.

Until there's a mechanism put in place, right

that makes that idea now realizable.

People are comparing the 3D printing revolution

to the revolution that happened with personal computing.

I don't necessarily think there will be a 3D printer in every home

but I think there will be 3D printer product in every home.

There will be an application for it for everyone.
