Abstract

The inspiration for this project comes from the fact that 3D printer is really innovative and revolutionary idea but along with that they are very costly, one cannot afford the 3D printer just for fun or to use at home just to create ideas into reality. One can create an affordable 3D printer by using equipment in their surrounding or probably at home. The technology of 3D printing can be used to create imagination into reality, parts of the machinery of equipment which are not available in the market, prototypes of new ideas and most importantly for fun. Due to higher prices, its access to world is very limited but through this work there will be an increase in the access of 3D printers. Obviously, this isn't going to be fancy but it will show the basics of how the 3D printer works. In the current work the Design and Fabrication of Dual Nozzle Fused Deposition Modelling 3D Printer is developed at low cost.
