Abstract

The 3D Printer is an additive manufacturing technology which is developing now a days as it has the potential to change the manufacturing industry. It takes few hours to develop a new product with this technology which was completed in day, months, and years with traditional technology. This is how it changing the world and so new and better machines are needed to cope up with the rapidly changing industry. This research highlights a low-cost 3D printer's manufacturing and its working. The whole printer along with the software was developed to reduce the cost of printers as compared to one already present in the market. The results show that low cost printer with good accuracy can be manufactured.
