Abstract:
In the era of the Industrial Revolution 4.0, digital
transformation in industry involves advanced technologies
such as the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence, and
data-driven manufacturing, which influence the development
of science and technology (IPTEK). In this context, this study
focuses on the design and manufacture of a cantilever-type 3D
printer machine that aims to produce a prototype machine
with the ability to print 3D objects efficiently and functionally.
Additive Manufacturing (AM) technology, especially Fused
Deposition Modeling (FDM), is used to transform digital
designs into physical products by adding material layer by
layer. This 3D printing machine is designed using the VDI
2221 method, which includes four design phases: task
classification, product concept design, product form design,
and detailed design. The design process is carried out by
considering the use of filaments from plastic bottle waste to
reduce environmental impacts. The design results show that
the variant with the Cartesian model (Variant 1) is selected as
the optimal solution based on functional criteria, cost, and ease
of assembly. This machine is capable of reaching nozzle
temperatures of up to 270°C and bed temperatures of up to
80°C, with a total production cost of Rp 3,657,000.00. This
finding shows the potential for utilizing 3D printing
technology in plastic waste processing and contributing to the
development of more environmentally friendly 3D printer
technology.
