However the biggest part is still in more traditional areas like prototyping using plastics. While 3D printing do bring advantages such as being faster and less wasteful than traditional manufacturing, also making it easier to produce on demand. The problem is that the majority of print material used is still plastic, which is one of the most harmful materials for the environment. This became apparent for us as well, thus we wondered why there isn’t more sustainable materials for 3D printing. This has led us to study a method to print with waste paper. The Paper Printer is the 3D printer which uses waste paper to replace plastic. Generally the market of materials is growing and there are other alternative materials you can choose from for your prints. However most of others still hybrid materials using PLA as a base. At the early stage we crossed path with 3D modeling and additive manufacturing. Through this process, we noticed the worrying amount of plastic being used in the process and started searching for a more sustainable material to replace it. As the amount of paper waste per person is at around 80 kg yearly, we decided to study with this wasteful and hugely used material. Key Words: Layer, Rapid prototyping, SDL, SLS, STL. 1. INTRODUCTION 3D printers have been with us for decades, routinely turning 3D computer designs into detailed physical objects for product design, education, architecture, healthcare, mapping, historic preservation and other applications. These devices create models in a range of materials, including plastic, plaster, photopolymers, metal and sometimes even food. Each of these materials brings inherent advantages and disadvantages, depending upon your application. There’s one more to consider: paper. Additively making parts using ordinary paper as the build material is a bit deceptive. On the one hand, you think such a 3D printed object can’t possibly handle the potential wear and tear you might expose it to. On the other hand, with the right binders and sealing materials, you are almost returning ordinary paper to its original form wood, with all the toughness, resiliency, and ruggedness of wood-based products. 1.1 Literature review [1]Direct Tool Production (DTP) by Laminated Manufacturing techniques such as Selective deposition lamination (SDL) & laminated object manufacturing is extensively studied to exchange conventional tool production techniques. The benefits we get from such techniques are reduction in both production time & cost for production. The major difficulty in this technique is ‘staircase’ effect arises due to distinct height of laminated sheets. Their work shows experimental study to reduce ‘staircase’ effect by use of slant cutting & laser cutting. [2]Laminated Manufacturing technique is a rapid prototyping method which constructed part successively from layers of paper. Their work shows the precision and accuracy of the Laminated Manufacturing techniques & the dimensional stability of their objects. The dimensional error was the largest normal to the plane of the paper, intensified by the moisture absorption and successive swelling. The key process parameters were identified and optimized for adequate bonding and cutting accuracy. [3]Their work indicates an analysis of warping occurs in the laminated manufacturing technique. Based on their study of thermal- mechanical behavior of the adhesive and its effect on the laminated materials, the cause of warping, the correlation between temperature and adhesive viscosity, and the adhesive linking intensity is investigated. An optimal combination of the handling parameters may remove the undesired warping effect. [4]Generally manufacturing processes where tool has to travel along recommended path to accomplish machining operation has an excellent application, for this problem found in layered Manufacturing method where the laser traces the profile of a layer by moving along the path while the laser turns on. The path is typically followed by a sequence of curves. For typical paths, extra time may be wasted in the progression of tool in between the end point of one curve to the start point of the next curve along which the laser is turned off. Normally, this non cutting motion generates straight line to minimize the distance. A maximum linear intersection (MLI) algorithm is introduced to solve this problem. [5]In their work the principle of sheet metal Laminated Manufacturing methods is described as well as the process chain of Laminated Object Manufacturing method of metal foil. For each sub-process of metal foil Laminated Manufacturing methods the results of the experimental work for qualifying and optimizing the sub- process are revealed. Finally some examples of possible
