5.1.3. Z-axis sliding cradle
Z-axis sliding cradle includes extruder’s motor, extruder, and airstream cooler (with the hood) .
5.2. Printing technology
ROBBO 3D PRINTER MINI uses Fused Depositing Method (FDM). 3D objects are created by
depositing the fused layers of melted plastic on the print bed.
The main unit of the 3D printer is extruder. It heats up the plastic filament and extrudes
the melted filament onto the print bed.
Extruder’s motor feeds the filament into the extruder’s pipe (made of PTFE), through
which the filament gets into the chamber of the heater to be heated up to the melting temperature
and poured through the nozzle under pressure. The temperature in the chamber is kept high by
the heater and controlled by a thermal resistor (changing its resistance with the change of the
temperature).
