REG NO:2200030272

Aim:

TO MAKE A 3D PRINTING ITEM

Software Requirements:

ULTIMATE CURA, THINGIVERSE,

Procedure:

First of all we have to install ultimaker tool in order to make 3D printed Object.
• So after installing it we need to go to thingiverse website in chrome and there we can
search for the required 3D image in it.
• After selecting an image we need to install it.
• We need to create a new folder on the desktop and save the downloaded files in it.
• Now open the downloaded file and press extract here, it extracts as a .stl file.
• Now open the ultimaker tool we installed before and open the .stl file we saved
earlier.
• After opening the .stl file in ultimaker tool and our downloaded image will appear .
• Now all we have to do is adjust the x,y,z axis of our image and at how much
percentage we would like to print it.
• We have to save it and copy our work into a chip card and insert it into the 3D printer.
• After inserting it will show us the time and heat it’s going to use it in the process.
• Our 3D object is a Ghost face and it took 20 mins to achieve the final output.
