Figure 17
The sequence of three images presents various views of three-dimensional printed metallic components mounted on flat bases. Each component exhibits intricate, organic shapes formed from smooth curves and flowing lines. The first image shows a structure with multiple upright cylindrical sections connected by arches. In the second image, a component appears with a more rounded, entwined design, viewed from a slightly tilted angle. The final image features a different shape that is flatter and more undulating with distinct curves. Each component has been crafted in a metallic finish and is positioned on a square base equipped with holes, likely for fastening or assembly purposes. The arrangement demonstrates the versatility and complexity of 3 D printed designs.Images of the manufactured manifolds: (a) Bottom approach; (b) Side approach; (c) Combination approach
