Abstract

Additive manufacturing based on 3d printing is widely used in the current market. Even complex products can be manufactured using 3d printing. As the demand for 3d printing keep on increasing, the demand for the filament are also increasing. Advantages of using 3d printing are it can save material by recycling it, making prototype easily and does not need mould. The purpose of developing this machine is to support the additive manufacturing industry. There are a lot of ways to develop a mini extrusion machine from previous research. However, there are no specific size, components and material needed to build the machine. So, this project is intended to research and design a filament extrusion machine with optimum method and provide reason on why the size, components and materials are choose. Based on the research made, a detail design for the Filament extrusion machine was generated. Besides, to strengthen the choice of design made, an analysis on the critical components of mini extrusion machine were conducted.
