Experimental study on parameters of Fabbster and Picaso 3D personal printers with XZ-Head Y-Bed and XY-Head Z-Bed kinematics

Abstract

The use of additive technologies greatly simplifies the production of parts of complex shapes. Improving the quality and increasing the speed of printing are urgent tasks for studying the possibilities of applying 3D printing technologies. The experimental study of the kinematic characteristics of 3D printers, considered in the current article, enables to identify problem areas in the designs of existing models of devices for innovative production of non-standard configuration parts, which must be taken into account when designing new.
