“3D printing” or “Additive
Manufacturing” takes
digital input in the form of
Computer Aided Design
(CAD) model and creates
solid, three dimensional
parts through an additive
process. In an additive
process an object is
created by laying down
successive layers of
material until the entire
object is created. Each of
these layers can be seen
as a thinly sliced horizontal
cross-section of the
eventual object

5. A person creates a 3D
image of an item using a
computer-aided design
(CAD) software program.
The CAD information is
sent to the printer.
The printer forms the item
by depositing the material
in layers—starting from
the bottom layer—onto a
platform. In some cases
light or lasers are used to
harden the material.

DESIGN
Printing System
Aerial Platform
The design was divide into the
printing module and the mobility
platform. The printing module
delivers the material in a highly
viscous form and deposits the
material at the position of the
printing nozzle. Using the
quadcopter platform the robot
can move to the required location
and follow the path required to
form the intended geometry by
depositing material along its way

9. The two chemicals are stored in two
separate containers. The containers used
are two 5mL syringes which can also be
used to pump the liquid out using the
plunger. Manufacturing modifications have
to be made to the syringes used in the
system in order to reduce weight.

01. Delivery
02. Mixing Components
The two chemicals are mixed by joining the
flows with a custom design Y-splitter and
pumping them through a disposable mixing
nozzle
03. Reaction Chamber
In order to provide more time for the two
chemicals to react, the mixture is held in a reaction
chamber until the mixture starts taking the required
form
04. Nozzle Valve
Single valve acts as a
printing head

10. INTEGRATION
Dept. of ISE, NIE
Mounting
Dynamic Coupling of the
Combined System
In order to mount the printing module on to the quadcopter.
a rig was designed . The rig has two main functions, firstly it
acts to attach the printing module to the base of the robot.
The rig is designed such that there is a clearance between
the quadcopter’s legs and the base of the module. This is
intended to prevent any damage to the module during
landing or in the event of unexpected failure during flight.
Secondly the rig also allows for the rotation of the printing

11. It is predicted
that the 3D
printing industry
is set to grow
300% in the
next 7 years!
