Abstract: The history of Chinese traditional crafts is considerably long and it is deeply honored by people all the time.It is required a rather high level skill to manufacture exquisite crafts.
Nowadays 3D printing technology makes it possible to realize effect of traditional crafts with modernized technology.3D printing is concerned by people as a technology with great prosperity in field of jewelry and craft producing in recent years.Advantages in quality and efficiency of 3D printing technology were summarized in the paper.The effect of combining modernized 3D printing technology with traditional arts was also discussed such as enamel, filigree,engrave,gold-inlaid-with-jade based on experiments.To realize filigree pattern on silver-padding,the authors remoulded chocolate printing machine of Doctor Hao to make 3D jet printing of silver slurry.Then,the authors tried to print crafts of enamel and the majority of which is in style of flat-wire-nipped.
With the use of digital modeling software of 3D printing,the authors designed models of filigree and chisel carved crafts.Meanwhile,by means of combining 3D wax spray printing with the method of lost wax casting process,goal of realizing the effect of filigree and engrave arts with 3D printing were achieved.What's more,the ways of combining CNC jade carving with 3D printing were discussed and objects of gold-inlaid-with-jade were realized. Through continuously exploring implement of realizing traditional arts via 3D printing technology,feasible approach to inherit and develop traditional crafts was found.
