Abstract

ABSTRACT: This paper presents a novel design to use polymer grains of Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) as a filament for a 3D printer. In the suggested design special extruder for ABS polymer grains were designed. This novel design may comprise an important step towards the improvement of using 3d printers in large scale manufacturing.
