Abstract:

The 3D printers are devices that can create a three-dimensional object from a digital model. The product is manufactured by adding material layer by layer and fusing these layers together. These machines can capable of doing complex and difficult tasks in one long step and it only requires a 3D model of the object to be made with a defined set of parameters and scaling ratios, which can then be converted into G-code. This data is then used for controlling the motors and extruding plastic, based on the G-code generated. These G-codes guide the machine to produce the part according to the requisite design. It’s an easy, economic and doesn’t require intense labor for processing. In this present work, a FDM based 3D printer is designed and the work is carried out using CATIA V5R21 software, further developed the working model.
