| Abstract | ||
| 3D objects are produced utilizing the additive manufacturing technique with the aid of computer-aided design software. A few of the techniques that are available in 3D printing technology include the Fused Deposition Method (FDM), Selec-tive Laser Sintering (SLS), Multi Jet Fusion (MJF), Stereolithography Laser Printers (SL), and Digital Light Processing (DLP). In this effort, we have focused on the design and production of a 500 x 500 x 520 mm3 3D printer that is rea-sonably priced. We employ four-axis mechanisms, one of which is an extruder, three of which are x, y, and z. High Impact Polystyrene (HIPS), Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS), and Polylactic Acid (PLA) are just some of the materi-als used in the FDM technology that we employ. The filament material is heated until melting, then deposited as one layer at a time. The layers are combined together to form a final 3D model. In this paper, Raspberry Pi is integrated with the 3D printer to improve its usability and convenience. Also, using of Raspber-ry Pi will enhance the overall functionality such as wireless networking, remote control, and using a sophisticated software. Therefore, the Raspberry Pi can be considered the machine's core control system. | ||
