Abstract
Printing in three dimensions, or 3D printing, is now recognised as one of the most cutting-edge innovations in the field of science. This technique is also known as fast prototyping, which refers to the process of rapidly producing three-dimensional items using a machine that is meant to be small and low weight and is controlled by computer-aided design (CAD) (Computer-Aided Design) software like Slic3r, and pronterface. The process adopted in this paper is the Fused Deposition Method (FDM) which includes materials like PLA (Polylactic Acid) filament and polycarbonate. In this paper, FDM based 3D printer is designed which is comparably fast and less expensive, and capable of proving fast complex sustainable design structures. Our project involves the use of a Ramps 1.4 board to control the stepper motor movement, an extruder, a hot end, a heated bed, and a 250 W power supply. Results show the fast processing of the complex designs, which indicates the competitive good printing speed.
