▲ 82 ▼ The process of mass-producing LED Signboards with 3D printers in Korea (youtu.be) submitted 2 years ago by GrayBackgroundMusic@lemm.ee to c/3dprinting@lemmy.world 12 comments fedilink hide all child comments I love seeing manufacturing and 3d printing in mfg settings. I work in mfg (not 3d printing, sadly).
[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 8 points 2 years ago (3 children) This is a great video. Here is my best guess for the process, but I'm not a 100% Use weird mouse to make design Use a water soluble adhesive so the filament sticks Clean up edges with a torch Put resin in for stability and UV cure Put color resin in for front look and UV cure Put really cool LED tape on that I would love to have the source for Hang permalink fedilink source hideshow 6 child comments replies: [–] sylver_dragon@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (1 child) Put really cool LED tape on that I would love to have the source for This stuff is available from Amazon and probably cheaper on Aliexpress. I have a roll of white LEDs with a sticky backing, which is a lot like the stuff used in the video. I also recently ordered this stuff which is a UVA LED with a sticky backing. My plan being to try and pair it with glow in the dark PLA to get a nice glow effect. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 1 point 2 years ago That sounds like a cool project. If you feel like sharing pics when you're done, I'd loved to see them. permalink fedilink source parent [–] NOPper@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago There are a few variety of that LED strip, and I use em for all sorts of junk. Just built a big backlight piece for my living room with maybe $80 worth. Look for WS2812 and you're on your way to multiple varieties using the same chips! permalink fedilink source parent [+] EmilieEvans@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago [deleted] permalink fedilink source parent
