Building on Flexible Fabrication, Digital Fabrication, Industrial Productivity on a Small Scale, Distributive Enteprise, Open Sector, Open Design, Basic Workshop, Lifetime Design, and other experimentation - we propose the Open Sector Workshop.
This is a commercially viable facility that can produce about 90% of consumer durables and other products necessary for a modern standard of living. Basic infrastructure involved includes:
- Basic Workshop - $5k
- Basic Advanced Workshop - $15k open source. CNC precision machining is involved.
- Ball Bearing and Bearing Manufacturing
- Induction Furnace - 200kW - to produce 5000 lb of virgin steel and aluminum per day. Can consider a zone refining- style vertical furnace where only a zone is activated.
- Plastic Recycling and 3D Printing
- Basic Electronics Shop - 3D printed and socketed designs for recyclable electronics, which can be potted for permanence. Heat dissipation fans and other structures included.
- Materials Production Facility - lumber, CEBs, rubber (thermoplastic elastomers), aluminum, glass, plastic composites, thermoplastic materials of all types..
Key to Success
Sufficient recursion must be available to make parts in house starting from waste plastic,
