complete upon re-entry. This printer was subjected to 25 – 50 Gs of external force,10 rev/s, and a vibration test. The printer needed to weigh no more than 4.3 lbs and neededindependent power. Most of the structure was 7075 grade aluminum manufactured to support theprinter. The power source was a custom 6V lithium polymer battery pack that was converted to a24V DC to run the printer. Four small stepper motors and belts controlled all printer movement,X and Y-axis movement was mounted on linear rails for accurate motion under high stresses, andZ axis was controlled by a lead screw powered via a belt by one of the stepper motors. The directdrive extruder fed the filament into the micro hot end.While the experimental setup was not able to credibly

, which is commonly used in suchapplications. It is important to have a charging controller to prevent destruction of the battery.The charging controller has a 5 volt and 1 ampere rated input and output, which is enough tocharge one 18650 battery. It has a red led on board so that user can see when the battery ischarging. Based on the charging controller current output and the 18650’s capacity the user canexpect to have it fully charged in 4 hours. That sounds like a lot, however, in emergencysituations, the battery does not need to be fully charged. Theoretically, to charge a modernsmartphone up to 10%, you would only need to generate power for 15 minutes. Figure 4 - Diagram of the electric circuit used in the design.The
