Joseph DeSimone: What if 3D printing was 100x faster?

周•狄西蒙: 倘若3D列印加快100倍?

Filmed:

約瑟夫•狄西蒙提出,我們已知的所謂3D列印,實際上只是2D列印反復進行的產物,其速度十分緩慢。在TED2015講台上,他揭示了一種大膽新穎的技術——技術靈感來自於,沒錯,「魔鬼終結者2」——使得3D打印加速25到100倍,並製造出光滑、高強度的部件。這能否幫助最終實現3D列印的巨大前景呢?

1824
今晚很高興
00:14
to share分享 with you something
we've我們已經 been working加工 on
1
2773
2379
能來到這裡與大家分享
00:17
for over two years年份,
2
5152
2090
我們兩年來的工作成果,
00:19
and it's in the area
of additive添加劑 manufacturing製造業,
3
7242
2554
我們的工作領域是積層製造,
00:21
also known已知 as 3D printing印花.
4
9796
2717
也就是所謂的3D列印。
00:24
You see this object目的 here.
5
12513
1718
大家看看這一物品。
00:26
It looks容貌 fairly相當 simple簡單,
but it's quite相當 complex複雜 at the same相同 time.
6
14231
3808
看似簡單,但又相當複雜。
00:30
It's a set of concentric同心
geodesic structures結構
7
18549
3251
這是一個同心密網格結構組合,
00:33
with linkages聯繫 between之間 each one.
8
21800
2995
彼此相連。
00:36
In its context上下文, it is not manufacturable可製造
by traditional傳統 manufacturing製造業 techniques技術.
9
24795
6002
傳統製造技術製造不出這種結構。
00:43
It has a symmetry對稱 such這樣
that you can't injection注射 mold模子 it.
10
31343
3947
結構具有對稱性,因此不能注塑模具。
00:47
You can't even manufacture製造 it
through通過 milling.
11
35290
3589
甚至不能通過銑削製造。
00:51
This is a job工作 for a 3D printer打印機,
12
39470
2647
這是3D列印機的施展拳腳的地方,
00:54
but most 3D printers打印機 would take between之間
three and 10 hours小時 to fabricate製造 it,
13
42117
4481
但大多數3D列印機製作這個
要用上3-10小時,
00:58
and we're going to take the risk風險 tonight今晚
to try to fabricate製造 it onstage在舞台上
14
46598
4226
今晚我們會冒險嘗試來製造這個結構,
01:02
during this 10-minute-分鐘 talk.
15
50824
2577
演講的10分鐘之內完成。
01:05
Wish希望 us luck運氣.
16
53401
2039
祝我們好運。
01:08
Now, 3D printing印花 is actually其實 a misnomer用詞不當.
17
56350
3274
「3D列印」的叫法不恰當。
01:11
It's actually其實 2D printing印花
over and over again,
18
59624
3775
實際上是二維印刷反復地進行,
01:15
and it in fact事實 uses使用 the technologies技術
associated相關 with 2D printing印花.
19
63919
3842
採用的是二維印刷的相關技術。
01:20
Think about inkjet噴墨 printing印花 where you
lay鋪設 down ink墨水 on a page to make letters,
20
68401
4959
想想噴墨列印,
你用墨水在紙上列印字母,
01:25
and then do that over and over again
to build建立 up a three-dimensional三維 object目的.
21
73360
4986
然後重複這一過程,
來建立一個三維物體。
01:30
In microelectronics微電子, they use something
22
78346
2071
在微電子學中,
人們使用平版印刷做類似的東西,
01:32
called lithography光刻 to do
the same相同 sort分類 of thing,
23
80417
2320
01:34
to make the transistors晶體管
and integrated集成 circuits電路
24
82737
2208
來製造晶體管和集成電路,
01:36
and build建立 up a structure結構體 several一些 times.
25
84945
2052
多次后就完成了一個結構。
01:38
These are all 2D printing印花 technologies技術.
26
86997
2402
這些都是二維印刷技術。
01:42
Now, I'm a chemist化學家,
a material材料 scientist科學家 too,
27
90099
3888
我是一名化學家和材料科學家,
01:45
and my co-inventors共同發明人
are also material材料 scientists科學家們,
28
93987
2724
我的工作夥伴們也是材料科學家,
01:48
one a chemist化學家, one a physicist物理學家,
29
96711
2299
一個是化學家,一個物理學家,
01:51
and we began開始 to be
interested有興趣 in 3D printing印花.
30
99010
2926
我們對3D列印感興趣。
01:53
And very often經常, as you know,
new ideas思路 are often經常 simple簡單 connections連接
31
101936
5595
大家知道,新穎的想法
往往簡單牽連起
不同社區不同經歷的人,
01:59
between之間 people with different不同 experiences經驗
in different不同 communities社區,
32
107531
3743
02:03
and that's our story故事.
33
111274
1477
而這就是我們的故事。
02:05
Now, we were inspired啟發
34
113591
2531
我們的靈感來源於
02:08
by the "Terminator終結者 2" scene現場 for T-T-1000,
35
116122
4771
「魔鬼終結者2」的
液態金屬機器人T-1000,
02:12
and we thought, why couldn't不能 a 3D printer打印機
operate操作 in this fashion時尚,
36
120893
4943
我們就想3D列印機能不能做到同樣的效果?
02:18
where you have an object目的
arise出現 out of a puddle水坑
37
126426
3936
讓一個物體從液體中,
實時成形,
02:23
in essentially實質上 real真實 time
38
131052
2468
02:25
with essentially實質上 no waste浪費
39
133520
2229
不造成任何浪費的同時,
02:27
to make a great object目的?
40
135749
2322
又能製造出很棒的物體。
02:30
Okay, just like the movies電影.
41
138071
1417
就像電影中那樣。
02:31
And could we be inspired啟發 by Hollywood好萊塢
42
139488
3389
我們可否取材好萊塢,
02:34
and come up with ways方法
to actually其實 try to get this to work?
43
142877
3507
找出方法嘗試實現這一效果?
02:38
And that was our challenge挑戰.
44
146384
2066
那是我們的挑戰。
02:40
And our approach途徑 would be,
if we could do this,
45
148450
3367
我們的方法如果能成功,
02:43
then we could fundamentally從根本上 address地址
the three issues問題 holding保持 back 3D printing印花
46
151817
3854
就可以從根本上解決
阻礙3D列印
成為一個製造過程的三大問題。
02:47
from being存在 a manufacturing製造業 process處理.
47
155671
2415
02:50
One, 3D printing印花 takes forever永遠.
48
158086
2531
首先,3D列印耗時長。
02:52
There are mushrooms蘑菇 that grow增長 faster更快
than 3D printed印刷的 parts部分. (Laughter笑聲)
49
160617
5224
蘑菇生長都比3D列印
一些物件的速度還快。(笑聲)
02:59
The layer by layer process處理
50
167281
2136
積層疊加過程
03:01
leads引線 to defects缺陷
in mechanical機械 properties性能,
51
169417
2902
導致機械性質存在缺陷,
03:04
and if we could grow增長 continuously一直,
we could eliminate消除 those defects缺陷.
52
172319
3947
如果我們能夠無間斷地製造,
就可以消除這些缺陷。
03:08
And in fact事實, if we could grow增長 really fast快速,
we could also start開始 using運用 materials物料
53
176266
5132
事實上,我們要是能夠實現快速製造,
就可以使用使用自凝材料,
達到優秀的機械性質。
03:13
that are self-curing自凝,
and we could have amazing驚人 properties性能.
54
181398
4644
03:18
So if we could pull this off,
imitate模擬 Hollywood好萊塢,
55
186042
4109
所以,如果我們能成功模仿好萊塢,
03:22
we could in fact事實 address地址 3D manufacturing製造業.
56
190151
2761
我們可以真正解決3D製造存在的問題。
03:26
Our approach途徑 is to use
some standard標準 knowledge知識
57
194702
3251
我們的方法是運用
03:29
in polymer聚合物 chemistry化學
58
197953
2600
高分子化學的標準知識,
03:32
to harness馬俱 light and oxygen
to grow增長 parts部分 continuously一直.
59
200553
6599
通過控制利用光和氧氣
來無間斷地製造部件。
03:39
Light and oxygen work in different不同 ways方法.
60
207152
2947
光和氧氣的作用機制不同。
03:42
Light can take a resin樹脂
and convert兌換 it to a solid固體,
61
210099
3042
光可以將合成樹脂轉換成固體,
03:45
can convert兌換 a liquid液體 to a solid固體.
62
213141
2154
即將液體轉換為固體。
03:47
Oxygen inhibits抑制 that process處理.
63
215295
3534
氧氣則抑制這一過程。
03:50
So light and oxygen
are polar極性 opposites對立 from one another另一個
64
218829
3251
所以從化學角度看,
03:54
from a chemical化學 point of view視圖,
65
222080
2508
光和氧氣彼此兩極對立,
我們要是能控制光和氧氣,
03:56
and if we can control控制 spatially空間地
the light and oxygen,
66
224588
3413
04:00
we could control控制 this process處理.
67
228001
1947
就控制整個製作過程。
04:02
And we refer參考 to this as CLIP.
[Continuous連續 Liquid液體 Interface接口 Production生產.]
68
230288
3451
我們將此稱為CLIP:
「無間斷液態介面印製法」
04:05
It has three functional實用 components組件.
69
233739
1876
CLIP有三個功能組件。
04:08
One, it has a reservoir
that holds持有 the puddle水坑,
70
236465
3861
第一個是用來存放液體的容器,
04:12
just like the T-T-1000.
71
240326
1879
就像液態金屬機器人T-1000。
04:14
At the bottom底部 of the reservoir
is a special特別 window窗口.
72
242205
2416
容器的底部有一個特殊窗口,
04:16
I'll come back to that.
73
244621
1491
我等下會談到。
04:18
In addition加成, it has a stage階段
that will lower降低 into the puddle水坑
74
246112
3780
組件二是一個架台,可下調至容器,
04:21
and pull the object目的 out of the liquid液體.
75
249892
2589
把物體從液體中拉出。
04:24
The third第三 component零件
is a digital數字 light projection投影 system系統
76
252481
3804
第三部分是數位光投影系統,
04:28
underneath the reservoir,
77
256285
2020
位於容器的下方,
04:30
illuminating照明 with light
in the ultraviolet紫外線 region地區.
78
258305
3273
可在紫外光區域照明。
04:34
Now, the key is that this window窗口
in the bottom底部 of this reservoir,
79
262048
3223
現在的關鍵是容器底部的窗口。
04:37
it's a composite綜合,
it's a very special特別 window窗口.
80
265271
2879
這是一個複合體,一個非常特殊的窗口。
04:40
It's not only transparent透明 to light
but it's permeable透水 to oxygen.
81
268150
3646
不僅透光,而且透氧。
04:43
It's got characteristics特點
like a contact聯繫 lens鏡片.
82
271796
2659
特徵與隱形眼鏡相似。
04:47
So we can see how the process處理 works作品.
83
275435
2281
我們可以看到製造過程。
04:49
You can start開始 to see that
as you lower降低 a stage階段 in there,
84
277716
3414
大家開始看到,當架台降低到那裡,
04:53
in a traditional傳統 process處理,
with an oxygen-impermeable不透氧 window窗口,
85
281130
4179
傳統製造過程使用不透氧窗口,
04:57
you make a two-dimensional二維 pattern模式
86
285309
1839
可以製造出二維圖案,
05:00
and you end結束 up gluing膠合 that onto the window窗口
with a traditional傳統 window窗口,
87
288008
3362
並最終用傳統的不透氣窗口
將圖案粘合到窗口上,
05:03
and so in order訂購 to introduce介紹
the next下一個 layer, you have to separate分離 it,
88
291370
3552
因此,要形成下一層,
你必須將其分開,
05:06
introduce介紹 new resin樹脂, reposition復位 it,
89
294922
3529
重新添加樹脂、重新定位,
05:10
and do this process處理 over and over again.
90
298451
2459
並不斷重複這個過程。
05:13
But with our very special特別 window窗口,
91
301400
1834
但用我們的特殊窗口,
05:15
what we're able能夠 to do is,
with oxygen coming未來 through通過 the bottom底部
92
303234
3329
就能做到讓氧氣從底部進入,
05:18
as light hits點擊 it,
93
306563
1253
當光線擊中氧氣,
05:21
that oxygen inhibits抑制 the reaction反應,
94
309256
2670
氧氣抑制反應,
05:23
and we form形成 a dead zone.
95
311926
2624
形成一個無感區。
05:26
This dead zone is on the order訂購
of tens of microns微米 thick,
96
314550
4319
無感區大約有幾十微米厚,
05:30
so that's two or three diameters直徑
of a red blood血液 cell細胞,
97
318869
3227
是紅血細胞直徑的兩三倍,
05:34
right at the window窗口 interface接口
that remains遺跡 a liquid液體,
98
322096
2531
位於液體容器的窗口界面,
05:36
and we pull this object目的 up,
99
324627
1950
然後我們把這物體拉出,
05:38
and as we talked about in a Science科學 paper,
100
326577
2392
正如我們的科學論文所描述的,
05:40
as we change更改 the oxygen content內容,
we can change更改 the dead zone thickness厚度.
101
328969
4713
我們要是改變氧含量,
就可以改變無感區的厚度。
05:45
And so we have a number of key variables變量
that we control控制: oxygen content內容,
102
333682
3692
因此我們控制一些關鍵變量:
氧含量、光、
05:49
the light, the light intensity強度,
the dose劑量 to cure治愈,
103
337374
3065
光的強度、凝劑劑量、
05:52
the viscosity粘性, the geometry幾何,
104
340439
1962
粘度、形狀結構。
05:54
and we use very sophisticated複雜的 software軟件
to control控制 this process處理.
105
342401
3416
我們用非常複雜的軟體
來控制這個過程。
05:58
The result結果 is pretty漂亮 staggering踉蹌.
106
346697
2763
得出的結果是相當驚人的。
06:01
It's 25 to 100 times faster更快
than traditional傳統 3D printers打印機,
107
349460
3736
與傳統的3D列印機相比,
這個方法要快25到100倍,
06:06
which哪一個 is game-changing改變遊戲規則.
108
354336
1834
這是改頭換面的變化。
06:08
In addition加成, as our ability能力
to deliver交付 liquid液體 to that interface接口,
109
356170
4336
此外,要是我們能夠向此界面傳送液體,
06:12
we can go 1,000 times faster更快 I believe,
110
360506
3740
我相信,更可以快1000倍,
06:16
and that in fact事實 opens打開 up the opportunity機會
for generating發電 a lot of heat,
111
364246
3557
實際上這種方法很有可能產生大量熱量,
06:19
and as a chemical化學 engineer工程師,
I get very excited興奮 at heat transfer轉讓
112
367803
4063
而作為一名化學工程師,
我熱衷於熱量的轉化,
06:23
and the idea理念 that we might威力 one day
have water-cooled水冷 3D printers打印機,
113
371866
4179
期待將來會有水冷式3D列印機,
06:28
because they're going so fast快速.
114
376045
2392
因為列印的速度可以達到非常快。
06:30
In addition加成, because we're growing生長 things,
we eliminate消除 the layers,
115
378437
4063
另外,因為我們是讓物體“長”出來的,
摒棄了積層製造,
06:34
and the parts部分 are monolithic單片.
116
382500
1974
就使部件變得一致了,
06:36
You don't see the surface表面 structure結構體.
117
384474
2090
也看不出表層結構。
06:38
You have molecularly分子 smooth光滑 surfaces.
118
386564
2493
我們得到了光滑的分子表層。
06:41
And the mechanical機械 properties性能
of most parts部分 made製作 in a 3D printer打印機
119
389057
4240
3D列印機製作的大部分部件,
其機械性質不甚理想,
它極其受制於列印角度,
06:45
are notorious臭名昭著 for having properties性能
that depend依靠 on the orientation方向
120
393297
4296
因為它採用層狀結構(的原理)。
06:49
with which哪一個 how you printed印刷的 it,
because of the layer-like層狀 structure結構體.
121
397593
3761
06:53
But when you grow增長 objects對象 like this,
122
401354
2345
但當你用“長”的方式製造物體,
06:55
the properties性能 are invariant不變
with the print打印 direction方向.
123
403699
3669
機械性質就不會因列印方向而變化。
06:59
These look like injection-molded注射成型 parts部分,
124
407368
2949
這些看起來像注塑零件,
07:02
which哪一個 is very different不同
than traditional傳統 3D manufacturing製造業.
125
410317
3412
與傳統的3D製造迥異。
07:05
In addition加成, we're able能夠 to throw
126
413729
3530
此外,我們能夠利用
07:09
the entire整個 polymer聚合物
chemistry化學 textbook教科書 at this,
127
417259
3576
整本高分子化學課本的知識,
07:12
and we're able能夠 to design設計 chemistries化學品
that can give rise上升 to the properties性能
128
420835
3991
設計出合適的化學成份,
使製造出的3D列印物體,
07:16
you really want in a 3D-printedd-印刷 object目的.
129
424826
3042
剛好擁有你真正需要的機械性質。
07:19
(Applause掌聲)
130
427868
1337
(掌聲)
07:21
There it is. That's great.
131
429205
3234
完成了。太棒了。
07:26
You always take the risk風險 that something
like this won't慣於 work onstage在舞台上, right?
132
434049
3578
站在台上做這樣的展示,
總有些風險,對吧?
07:30
But we can have materials物料
with great mechanical機械 properties性能.
133
438177
2879
但是我們的材料有卓越的機械性質。
07:33
For the first time, we can have elastomers彈性體
134
441056
2438
我們首次擁有了彈性體,
07:35
that are high elasticity彈性
or high dampening阻尼.
135
443494
2461
既可以具有高彈性,
又可具有高阻尼性。
07:37
Think about vibration振動 control控制
or great sneakers球鞋, for example.
136
445955
3413
例如,想想振動控制,或者是優質運動鞋。
07:41
We can make materials物料
that have incredible難以置信 strength強度,
137
449368
2610
我們可以製造出強有力的材料,
07:44
high strength-to-weight的強度 - 重量 ratio,
really strong強大 materials物料,
138
452828
3576
具有很高的強度-重量比,
真的是很強韌的材料,
07:48
really great elastomers彈性體,
139
456404
2113
真正強大的彈性體材料,
07:50
so throw that in the audience聽眾 there.
140
458517
2725
我們可以把這個拋給遠處的觀眾。
07:53
So great material材料 properties性能.
141
461242
2636
如此了不起的材料性質。
07:55
And so the opportunity機會 now,
if you actually其實 make a part部分
142
463878
3415
所以現在機會來了:
如果製造出的部件
07:59
that has the properties性能
to be a final最後 part部分,
143
467293
3680
具有成為成品的屬性,
08:02
and you do it in game-changing改變遊戲規則 speeds速度,
144
470973
3100
又能以改變行業面貌的高速度進行製造,
08:06
you can actually其實 transform轉變 manufacturing製造業.
145
474073
2787
那你就有可能徹底改變製造業。
08:08
Right now, in manufacturing製造業,
what happens發生 is,
146
476860
2856
目前的製造業中的數位化製造,
08:11
the so-called所謂 digital數字 thread
in digital數字 manufacturing製造業.
147
479716
2962
存在著所謂的數位化線程。
08:14
We go from a CADCAD drawing畫畫, a design設計,
to a prototype原型 to manufacturing製造業.
148
482678
5039
我們從CAD繪圖、設計開始,
發展原型,再到製造。
08:19
Often經常, the digital數字 thread is broken破碎
right at prototype原型,
149
487717
2723
通常情況下,數位線程
會在製造原型過程中掉鏈,
08:22
because you can't go
all the way to manufacturing製造業
150
490440
2432
因為你無法直接去到大規模製造這個環節,
08:24
because most parts部分 don't have
the properties性能 to be a final最後 part部分.
151
492872
3715
因為大部分部件不具備成品特性。
08:28
We now can connect the digital數字 thread
152
496587
2391
現在我們把數位化線程聯繫起來,
08:30
all the way from design設計
to prototyping原型 to manufacturing製造業,
153
498978
4249
從設計、原型製作到製造,
08:35
and that opportunity機會
really opens打開 up all sorts排序 of things,
154
503227
2949
這個機會可以開拓出各種發展機遇,
08:38
from better fuel-efficient省油 cars汽車
dealing交易 with great lattice格子 properties性能
155
506176
4953
譬如節油汽車具有高強度-重量比,
08:43
with high strength-to-weight的強度 - 重量 ratio,
156
511129
1951
可以處理更多晶格特性,
08:45
new turbine渦輪 blades葉片,
all sorts排序 of wonderful精彩 things.
157
513080
3428
還有新式渦輪葉片,以及各種美妙的物體。
想想看,如果你在緊急情況下需要一個支架,
08:49
Think about if you need a stent支架
in an emergency situation情況,
158
517468
5155
08:54
instead代替 of the doctor醫生 pulling off
a stent支架 out of the shelf
159
522623
3970
醫生不會只是從架子上
08:58
that was just standard標準 sizes大小,
160
526593
2229
拿一個標準尺寸的支架,
09:00
having a stent支架 that's designed設計
for you, for your own擁有 anatomy解剖學
161
528822
4156
而是提供專門為你設計的支架,
09:04
with your own擁有 tributaries支流,
162
532978
1811
一個為你度身定制的支架,
09:06
printed印刷的 in an emergency situation情況
in real真實 time out of the properties性能
163
534789
3249
在緊急情況下實時列印,
09:10
such這樣 that the stent支架 could go away
after 18 months個月: really-game真的遊戲 changing改變.
164
538038
3439
並且質量可以維持18個月:
這是一種顛覆。
09:13
Or digital數字 dentistry牙科, and making製造
these kinds of structures結構
165
541477
4156
或者數位化牙科:當你躺在牙醫椅子上時
09:17
even while you're in the dentist牙醫 chair椅子.
166
545633
3181
就可以做出這類結構。
09:20
And look at the structures結構
that my students學生們 are making製造
167
548814
2716
看看我的學生們
09:23
at the University大學 of North Carolina卡羅來納州.
168
551530
1974
在北卡羅萊納大學所做出的結構。
09:25
These are amazing驚人 microscale微量 structures結構.
169
553504
2809
這些是很棒的微型結構。
09:28
You know, the world世界 is really good
at nano-fabrication納米製造.
170
556313
2996
要知道,現今世界的奈米製造技術很優秀。
09:31
Moore's摩爾定律 Law has driven驅動 things
from 10 microns微米 and below下面.
171
559309
4290
摩爾定律已經可以做到10微米及以下的物體。
09:35
We're really good at that,
172
563599
1602
我們這方面做得很好,
09:37
but it's actually其實 very hard to make things
from 10 microns微米 to 1,000 microns微米,
173
565201
4040
但把10微米的物體做到1000微米,
實際上是非常困難的,
09:41
the mesoscale尺度.
174
569241
2020
這就進入到中尺度的範疇。
09:43
And subtractive消減 techniques技術
from the silicon industry行業
175
571261
2833
而矽產業的消減技術
09:46
can't do that very well.
176
574094
1416
無法很好做到這一點。
09:47
They can't etch蝕刻 wafers晶圓 that well.
177
575510
1649
他們不能完美地蝕刻晶片。
09:49
But this process處理 is so gentle溫和,
178
577159
1950
但我們的這種製程相當精細,
09:51
we can grow增長 these objects對象
up from the bottom底部
179
579109
2485
可以從底部製作物體,
09:53
using運用 additive添加劑 manufacturing製造業
180
581594
1996
利用添加製造技術,
09:55
and make amazing驚人 things
in tens of seconds,
181
583590
2253
在幾十秒內達到驚人的效果,
09:57
opening開盤 up new sensor傳感器 technologies技術,
182
585843
2089
拓展了嶄新的傳感器技術、
09:59
new drug藥物 delivery交貨 techniques技術,
183
587932
2485
新型施藥技術、
10:02
new lab-on-a-chip實驗室上的單芯片 applications應用,
really game-changing改變遊戲規則 stuff東東.
184
590417
3732
嶄新的芯片實驗室應用,
真正能改變行業面貌。
10:07
So the opportunity機會 of making製造
a part部分 in real真實 time
185
595149
4834
因此實時製作部件的機會,
10:11
that has the properties性能 to be a final最後 part部分
186
599983
2833
讓部件具有成品屬性,
10:14
really opens打開 up 3D manufacturing製造業,
187
602816
2976
真正開拓了3D製造產業,
10:17
and for us, this is very exciting扣人心弦,
because this really is owning擁有
188
605792
3200
對我們來說,這非常令人振奮,
10:20
the intersection路口 between之間 hardware硬件,
software軟件 and molecular分子 science科學,
189
608992
6597
因為這真正實現了硬體、
軟體和分子科學之間的結合,
10:27
and I can't wait to see what designers設計師
and engineers工程師 around the world世界
190
615589
4166
我迫不及待地想看道
世界各地的設計師和工程師們
10:31
are going to be able能夠 to do
with this great tool工具.
191
619755
2274
會用這工具做出什麼成果。
10:34
Thanks謝謝 for listening.
