[Multi-Gantry Multi-Extruder 3D Printing] Results and Recommendations
Documenting Results
Document your results based on these parameters.
| Size | Total size of the printer (length x width x height). |
| Materials/Components | List of materials used in building the prototype. |
| Print materials | List and type of print materials used for printing. |
| Extruders | List each type of extruder used. |
| 3D |
Name of the 3D application. |
| Time to build |
Time taken to build the prototype (in Engineering Days - including research and meetings). Tip: Use Clockify or any other time management tool. |
| Time to design object | Time taken to design the 3D model. |
| Time to print | Time to print the complete 3D object. |
Documenting Recommendations
A detailed report of the recommendation must accompany the results. The recommendation must specify the following:
- Types of print materials that are suitable for 3D printing
- Types of extruders that each print material should use
- Design specifications document for the printer build
- Recommended 3D software to use
- Precautions to be taken when setting up the 3D printer
- Comparison of time taken to print the object on this printer versus a regular 3D printer.
