With the measured properties, the 3D printed samples are aviable solution for engineering students to learn mechanical properties of materials. The impactsof using 3D printed specimens on the engineering curriculum for mechanical engineers are alsodiscussed.IntroductionFused deposition modeling (FDM) is an additive manufacturing technology commonly used formodeling, prototyping, and production applications. It is one of the techniques used for 3Dprinting. FDM works on an “additive” principle by laying down material in layers; a plasticfilament is unwound from a coil and supplies material to produce a part. Three-D printers thatrun on FDM Technology build parts layer-by-layer from the

describe the ten stages of a lab lifecycle in detail. 1. Need. Most of the labs start with a need to prove a theoretical concept using experiments or to design a process or product using modern engineering tools. Here, the later is emphasized. Often, a demonstration of a novel instrument or device is observed. Also, the current laboratory experiences are assessed and found to be inadequate or incompatible with respect to the current technology. 2. Conception. In this stage, mostly, replacement of the old lab’s instrumentation/equipment with the state-of-the-art versions is sought; preliminary evaluations of new instrumentation/equipment capabilities are performed, and some possible new lab ideas are explored

latter interaction can easily result in temperaturesapproaching 110°F or higher on the plant floor.Heat engines hold the possibility of capturing this resource and redirecting the energy to avariety of positive outcomes. Developing appropriate systems, however, can be a challengingtask in a manufacturing environment. The target furnaces must run at normal capacity andscheduling, which makes installation and testing of technology complicated. Further, full-scaledevelopment can be costly.Small-scale development is much more appropriate, and lends itself well to practical studentexperiences in design and application (as well as opening opportunities for expanded heattransfer laboratory experiments).
