  • Makerbot 3D printer has a input part which allows plastic filament to enter, it is at the top.
  • This printer generally uses FDM (Fused deposition Modelling) method,where plastic filament is melted to 215 degree Celsius and extruded through small nozzle.

Steps to get 3D printed object..

  1. First step is to create 3D file of required object on 3D software like CAD,CATIA,SolidWorks.Or one can click image of an object and make 3D file of it.
  2. This step is to convert 3D file to the language which accepted by the printer.This is also known as slicing.
  3. Last,step is to get the print.

3D printing is destined to change the world in ways that we cannot even understand and the social good (or bad) they can do is endless. Thirty-three-year-old Kodjo Afate Grikou wanted to help his community in West Africa to print necessities that they can't source locally, such as kitchen utensils for cooking. The structure of the 3D printer he had in mind uses very little in terms of new parts because it is mostly made up of e-waste and scrap...

3D printing started in the early 1980s. There are many different processes and many different patents, so it is difficult to say who actually invented it or first brought 3D printing to the market. Let’s suppose we could. Consider the first 3D printing company, which we’ll call 3DisUs, selling 3D printers to industries to use to create intricate plastic parts that might otherwise take much more money to create. A. Suppose 3DisUs commissioned a market research company to survey a...
