3D printing is an additive manufacturing technique in which 3D objects are printed with the help of Computer-Aided Design software. There are various processes which are available in 3D printing technology such as (1) FDM (Fused Deposition Method), (2) SLS (Selective Laser Sintering), (3) EBM (Electron Beam Machining), (4) LOM (Laminated Object Manufacturing), (5) DLP (Digital Light Processing),etc. In this paper, we have focused on the design of a 3D printer of build volume which can be constructed economically. We are using 3 axis mechanisms where 3 axes are x-y-z. The modeling technology adopted by us is FDM, in which different the materials like PLA (Polylactic Acid), ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene), HIPS (high impact polystyrene), etc. By heating any of the filament material to its melting point and it is deposited layer by layer. Combination of many layers of such type will give us a final 3D model. The 3D model is stored in as a STL format and after that forwarded to a 3D printer. The 3D printer prints the CAD design layer by layer forming a real object.
