Palm Print TM
PubblicoAdditive manufacturing (AM) is the industrial production name for 3D printing, a computer-controlled process that creates three-dimensional objects by depositing materials, usually in layers. AM technologies have enabled the production of end-use products at low costs, faster lead times, and less environmental impact, with a user-friendly interface. Creating an affordable and portable 3D printer would allow users, especially students, to manufacture prototypes utilized for a wide range of small projects and applications. Using Autodesk Fusion360, a Computer-Aided Design (CAD) Software, and 3D printers to design and test different prototypes. The Palm Print: Portable 3D Printer was constructed for under $150. The 3D printer has the capability of printing a 2x2x1.8” build volume using PLA (Polylactic Acid) plastic filament. The Palm Print: Portable 3D Printer is functional but leads to some improvements that could be made to increase the performance of the product and allow for a marketable product.
