Description

New to 3D printing?Are you a tech-enthusiast or just curious about what's new around the corner for mechanized production?Did you ever wonder what the future would look like if we had to tools to create chairs, cars and houses just by clicking a button?3D printing has made up a new industrial revolution of its own and is taking professional quality manufacturing to the home of young entrepreneurs. However, 3d printers can be expensive and not everybody can have access to one, but what if you could build your own printer?3D printer isn’t new, since the early 2000s 3d printing technology known as fdm, or fusion deposition modeling had been taking over the desks and workshops of young entrepeneurs and tech enthusiasts, and now everybody wants to be able to design their own printer whether it’s for starting their own business, for research purposes or simply out of shear curiosity.With this course I will share not just the know-how of building a printer but the knowledge on how to design and develop your own printer.The contents of this video tutorial include; basics on 3D printer kinematics, step-by-step 3D printer building instructions, electronic wiring, slicer settings, working with Arduino and 3d printing troubleshooting. You’ll receive all the necessary 3d models to print and a complete list of the components you’ll have to order.
