| Summary: | 3D-printing technology is a new technology known as an additive manufacturing for rapid prototyping and tooling. However, motorcycle spared part industry is particularly affected by 3D-printing technology. This experiment aimed to study whether 3D-printing technology is suitable to apply in producing the motorcycle handle grips. This experiment had used 3D-printer, computer software, ABS filament and actual handle grips. The result showed that the 3D-printing technology is suitable to be used at producing the handle grips while the ABS filament is suitable to use as the material to print the handle grips. In the future, 3D- printing technology will replace the conventional machine because 3D-printing can help to reduce material waste and pollution towards the global environment. |
