DIY: Ghostbusters Belt Gizmo

If you are a Ghostbusters fan, you will know what this Belt Gizmo is. Being a Ghostbusters fan myself, I have always wanted one of this to complete my Ghostbusters costume. First, I tried to find the best photo available of the circuit board and I mirrored it to use as the image for the other side of the circuit board. Printed it out on transparent sticker and stuck it on to stiff cardboard to make it look like a real circuit board.

Next, I had to create the graphics to replicate the various chips and components. These were also printed on transparent sticker and stuck on to cardboard. I used transparent stickers because they give a glossy look that made it look like plastic. Metal wires were attached to the "circuit board" where the white chips are then glued on top, to make it look like the "legs" of the chip.

For the ceramic disc capacitors, I stuck the stickers on to round discs I cut from a thin orange foam sheet. These were hot glued to the circuit board. Transistors and resistors were also attached. Hot glue were used in place of real solder. You can then just use a silver market to color these hot glue to make it look like real solder.

The Nixie tubes are harder to replicate. I thought long and hard about this and came out with a simple method. I designed the Nixie tube wire mesh and number design graphic and printed it on transparent sticker. These were then stuck in to transparent plastic tubes I cut from the body of a ball point pen. Finally, some aluminium sticker are used to complete the look.

Next, we wire some LEDs and glue some fake wires together and stuff it into the Nixie tube.

Now we can mount the Nixie tubes. The "rack" that the Nixie tubes were mounted on was made out of stiff cardboard. It was just a quick hack. I should probably redo this with a 3D printed part eventually.

With that completed, we can wire in the switch and battery holder. The switch is hot glued under the Nixie tube rack and the batter holder just slots into the space under the Nixie tubes.

Another detail is the caps above the Nixie tubes. Again, another quick hack.

Lastly, I also attached an old telephone cord and some random circuit board that I mounted a belt clip behind it.

That's it, the belt gizmo is done! What do you think?

Rapid Prototyping Services Revolutionizes Innovation

Rapid prototyping is a process that uses three-dimensional computer-aided design (CAD) data to quickly produce a scale replica of a physical item or assembly. The intention is to provide engineers and designers the opportunity to assess a design's shape, fit, and functionality before mass production. The procedure allows for rapid prototype, which cuts down on the development cycle's duration and expense.

Important Elements of Services for Rapid Prototyping

3D Manufacturing

3D printing is one of the most popular methods for fast prototyping. It entails the layer-by-layer deposition of material from a computer design to produce a tangible item. The versatility of materials, such as metals, ceramics, and plastics, allows for the flexible prototyping of a wide range of items.

CNC Machining: CNC machining is a type of subtractive manufacturing in which a machine tool controlled by a computer removes material from a solid block to mold it into the desired shape. Prototypes may be made with this technique using a variety of materials, including metals and polymers.

Molding by Injection

High-volume prototypes are produced by the rapid prototyping manufacturer using injection molding. The prototype is created by pouring molten material into a mold cavity, where it hardens. Larger production runs result in lower per-unit costs, notwithstanding the greater initial tooling cost.

Advantages of Services for Rapid Prototyping

Accelerated Product Development: From concept to final design, the time it takes to produce a product is greatly decreased by rapid prototyping. Businesses can gain a competitive edge by bringing items to market faster because of this speed.

Savings: When adjustments are needed, traditional prototyping techniques may be costly. Quick modifications are made possible by rapid prototyping, which lowers tooling costs and development costs overall.

Iterative Design Process: An iterative design process is supported by the capacity to swiftly create and test prototypes. Designers can quickly retest, make changes, and get feedback, which results in a better and more optimized final product.

Customization & Complexity: Using Chinese rapid prototyping services makes it feasible to produce extremely intricate and personalized designs that would be difficult or impossible to produce using conventional manufacturing techniques. In sectors including consumer electronics, healthcare, and aerospace, this capacity is very useful.

The demand for 3D printing surged during the pandemic, with AM technologies being utilized for the rapid production of ventilator parts, face shields, and other critical supplies. The crisis highlighted the agility of AM in responding to unforeseen challenges and increased awareness of its potential across various industries.

Inquiry Before Buying :

The situation in Ukraine had indirect effects on the Additive Manufacturing (AM) market, primarily through broader geopolitical and economic repercussions. Disruptions in supply chains, especially for metals and other raw materials used in AM processes, were potential concerns. Additionally, uncertainties in global markets may have influenced investment decisions and R&D activities in the AM sector. However, the impact varied depending on the resilience of individual companies and their exposure to the geopolitical developments.

Key Takeaways:

North America Dominated the Market

Geographically, in the Additive Manufacturing market share, the North America region has held a dominant market share of 41% in 2023, Rising government investments and projects in the United States for additive manufacturing have also raised the growth of the market. For instance, to address the challenges in single laser melting (SLM), America Makes awarded GE Global $2.6 million to build an open-source, multi-laser production machine and AM platform. Additionally, in Canada, the rising partnership between research universities in the field of additive manufacturing is also influencing the growth of the market. U.S. is anticipated to lead the global additive manufacturing market with the largest installed base for 3d printer in the world. With such a dominant presence of the 3d printers in the country U.S. is likely to contribute more than one third in the revenue generated by additive manufacturing worldwide.

Metal is the Fastest Growing Segment

In the Additive Manufacturing Market forecast, the Metal segment is estimated to grow with a CAGR of 23.5% during the forecast period. Metals are a better option for 3D printing compared to plastics, as they have more industrial usage. Often the 3D metal printing shows itself to be unique as the new technologies can readily surpass what was offered by traditional processes. In AM of metals a powder feedstock or more rarely a wire is fully melted by the energy input of a laser or electron beam and transformed layer by layer into a solid part of nearly any geometry. The most popular processes for AM of metals are Laser Beam Melting (LBM), Electron Beam Melting (EBM) and Laser Metal. In a survey conducted across the globe, about 23% of the 3D printing materials used are metals. The 3D printing metals segment is also poised to grow as it has a competitive edge over other plastic materials used in 3D Printing. Metal 3D printing is too expensive, furthermore other companies, like Desktop Metal and Markforged, are developing approaches to manufacture affordable metal 3D printers.

Schedule A Call :

Aerospace to Hold Largest Market Share

According to the Additive Manufacturing Market analysis, the Aerospace segment is estimated to hold the largest market share of 34% in 2023, the aerospace and defense industry is a perfect example of how to use additive manufacturing (AM) (commonly referred to as 3D Printing) to produce components that are heavier and lighter than parts manufactured using conventional manufacturing methods. Additive manufacturing or 3D printing has applications in the aerospace industry such as engine compartments, cabin accessories, air ducts among others. NASA researchers are looking into how electroplated SLA parts perform in space. Engineers at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center designed brackets that were 3D printed on printers, electroplated, and sent to space aboard a summer 2022 SpaceX commercial resupply services (CRS-25) mission to the International Space Station (ISS). The results could inform how NASA and possibly other aerospace manufacturers may incorporate electroplating and additive manufacturing into potential future product plans.

Ease of Manufacturing Complex Design

he basic physical difference in how objects are made with the additive manufacturing process produces some major functional differences when compared with other traditional manufacturing processes. The most significant of these functional differences is the ability of additive manufacturing to produce complex geometries that would be difficult or impossible to achieve using conventional manufacturing methods. These intricate geometries are also stronger and lighter than their conventional counterparts. Additive manufacturing eliminates the additional costs normally associated with creating more complex objects. A highly complex component usually costs much more using conventional methods. This is primarily because conventional fabrication methods rely on the conversion of three-dimensional illustrations into two-dimensional drawings for fabrication, as well as the labor cost of assembling such components. However, regardless of the complexity of a component, the method in additive manufacturing is the same. Thus, no additional cost is incurred for manufacturing complex designs using additive manufacturing.

Buy Now :

Relatively Lower Production Cost for Rapid Manufacturing

The manufacturing companies experience various benefits while using additive manufacturing methods to produce objects. Since the complexity of the component has little or no impact on the manufacturing time and costs, additive manufacturing is ideal for low-cost production as well as small and (very) large series. Design changes can be implemented quickly at a low cost. Metal structures are made up of atom by atoms in additive manufacturing, as opposed to subtractive approaches like chemical etching. As a consequence, almost every piece of metal is utilized during the production process, with almost no waste of material and reducing material wastage. When using additive manufacturing, all of the extra features that are needed for the assembly, such as fasteners, brazing, or welding, can be omitted. Thus, additive manufacturing also reduces assembly costs.

Difficulty in Producing Large Single Parts

Even if additive manufacturing were to dramatically increase production speed and volume performance, it would still be unable to manufacture large single parts. This is yet another major challenge confronting additive manufacturing researchers as they pursue new applications for 3D printing technology. Arc-based wire feed metal AM was chosen as the best process to produce large metal parts. While metal powder bed printers are available commercially, they are not currently capable of producing large-scale metal parts. Therefore, arc-based wire feed technology provided the most cost-effective solution. The building envelope for current additive manufacturing technologies is limited, meaning even larger components that can be printed must still be assembled by mechanical joining or welding.
