Abstract

3D printers have become the base element in the fourth industrial revolution which will lead the new economic world. The increasing accessibility of 3D printers will help to push boundaries in technology much further, and thus providing a more thriving, prosperous society. With cheaper solutions for parts and eliminating the need for batch supply to make money and profits, 3D printing looks set to change the world today, just as the factory revolution did, in the past.  The design of this printer is discussed in detail, and its performance for both hard components and software’s were tested and evaluated. Problems faced 3D printers’ developers were also discussed, including hardware, software, and production problems. In this study the 3D printer will be designed from local and cheap raw materials. A practical and experimental application to implement a local 3D printer is presented here with cheap hardware and software components. An evaluation and test of the printer performance and efficiency is performed too.  It is found that the 3D printers have many problems in implementation and design which need to be solved. The main thing in such solution is to determine the objectives from such printer and choose the appropriate hard and software. Also, it is found that the present 3D printer can works properly with good performance and efficiency and produces low-cost products with good quality by good controlling and good calibration systems.
