In recent years, 3D printers have become an increasingly important part of our lives. 3D printers, which many industrial institutions use for prototyping, have now entered our homes. The Maker culture that came with Industry 4.0 has made 3D printers a part of our lives.

What is a 3D printer?

Consider a 3D object. This object actually consists of superimposing many layers from the base. The 3D printer makes the formation of these layers with a method we call adding.

To create an object, you will either subtract from a full object (CNC Router logic) or create it by adding small parts. 3D printers do this adding work. They also use a wide variety of materials for this work.

What is open source?

Open source means presenting a project with all its details to its aspirants. Anyone who wants an open source project can do it himself. Because all information such as circuit diagrams of that project, software used, 2D-3D model drawings are provided by the project developer.
