Control of laboratory model 3D Printer

Abstract

RepRap project deals with the development and potential of 3D printers as a device for non-commercial use. Due to the high cost of conventional 3D printer, project offers the possibility of building a simpler device which by losing accuracy and quality comes at an acceptable cost to all potential users. The project is open-source and everyone is welcome to contribute with their idea within the whole project. This thesis deals with the construction of this machine, discusses the pitfalls that can occur, and summarizes the best solution.
