The document discusses the development and specifications of a polar 3D printer, highlighting its reliability, affordability, and ease of use. It contrasts the polar system with cartesian and delta printers, noting advantages such as higher accuracy and fewer movable parts. The author details their progress in troubleshooting and configuring the printer, while noting challenges like motor synchronization.

3. Quality’s to overcome
• In todays real world approach ,the technological solutions that can be adapted in
competitive world for effectively usage of 3D printer .
• The solutions Should be :-
 Reliable
 Affordable
 Socially acceptable
 Easy to use
 Accurate
 Versatile
 Dynamic function
 So on………

6. Progress till :8th-September-2017
• Running polar for the first time.
• Get the idea of “How to troubleshooting about some specific problem”.
• Ordered Arduino Mega and RAMPS from Amazon.
• Get the source code and supplementary material.
• Configured Marlin accordingly and tested.
• Encountered some problems like
 Not properly Interfacing of pronterface with printer.
 Not properly working of the display with given supply .
 Offset of the printer from the center (origin).
• Configured silc3r software for the better generating of the Gcodes and better
understanding of the machine by software.
• OUTCOME……………next slide.

8. Description of the video-1
• In the above video, I have analysis that the independtly all
motors are working and when I give the print command then
z-motor lower’s the extruding carriage and then hit end stop
and then nothing happens after it.
• The problem arises that “ why the others motor are not
working all together?”.
• So as I am working on it further this problems get to be
solved in future.
