Small, compact, portable, and versatile, the newly designed coat hanger is one like none other. The traditional coat hanger hasn’t changed much since first invention, and this product is the new design that is needed. Traditional coat hangers are very large, as well as sometimes producing a struggle to remove the coat from the hanger. There reasons are the reasons why it is time for a change. The impact that this coat hanger will have to a customer is that it is a space saving design, as well as, just like a traditional coat hanger, will be very easy to use, for anyone, on a daily basis. This product will be easier for people to use as it rotates in the closet to save space, as well as having an easy removal of the coat being hanged. The great thing about this design is that it can only be produced using FDM 3D printing or any type of additive manufacturing. Although there are two moving parts, they are printed as one singular part that ends up moving to two. The part that allows the two pieces to rotate is a simple design the cannot be machined, or produced in any other way rather than additive manufacturing. The benefits that FDM Technology has is that it is cost effective, doesn’t waste material, and very time effective. Printed using PLA plastics. Grand Haven High School with teacher Jeremy Case.
