1802 Filament only 50/kg 40 kg 2000Recently, a MakerBot Replicator Z18 3D printer was purchased. Unfortunately, large failed partsdo not fit in the plastic shredder. For now, they are cut manually to a size adequate for the plasticshredder in the engineering machine shop. An undergraduate engineering student group isdesigning a pre-shredder cutter to complete the current recycling system.At this time, most known inexpensive 3D printers based on FDM technology use non-proprietaryfilament, either 1.7 mm or 3 mm and print in ABS and/or PLA. Even XYZ 3D printers that haveproprietary filament cartridges have been successfully re-filled with third-party filament. Therecycling system for 3D

Students often develop the ability to plug numbers into equations and get ananswer without understanding what the answer means, and they are not able to apply equationsto new or different scenarios2,3. Practicing engineers must be able to apply multiple fundamentalconcepts to various design problems, and conceptual understanding is the first step in developingthis ability2,4,5.
