Abstract

The most innovative technology in the current world of science is 3D printer. 3D printing or additive manufacturing (AM) is a technology that converts 3D designs into real objects by use of liquid plastic which is controlled by programming the Arduino Mega 2560 and using CAD software like Slic3r, Pronterface. Arduino is an open-source physical computing platform. The Arduino Mega microcontroller board is based on the ATmega2560. It consists of 54 digital input/output pins, 16 analog inputs, 4 UARTs, a 16 MHz crystal oscillator, and a USB connection, a power jack, an ICSP header, and a reset button. The open-source IDE can be downloaded for free. 3D printer applications are in the field of medical, aerospace, automation industries, fashion, prototypes & personal use and many more.
