to assist pulling the fiber at the proper rate to print complex parts. To protect operators,a small chamber is added to the 3D printer just above the syringe which holds a spool of carbonfiber and allows the pressurized air to flow through. This pneumatic-driven 3D printer allows usto manufacture continuous carbon fiber-reinforced composites and the design is shown in Figure2.Figure 2.

That’s what the caption is for. • Axes usually should not run through the center of a graph. • Each axis needs a label including units • Include legend only when graphing more than one set of data. • Format tables so data can be easily compared. Don’t have tables spread across two or more pages. • Put units in the header of each table column. • Units should be consistent and abbreviated correctly. o mPa and MPa are different o second is s not sec, hour is h not hr, etc. (lists of unit abbrev can be found online)Statistics • For each data point, report the number of measurements made or samples tested (n), even
