Abstract

Accompanied by the progress of the times and the development of social science and technology, the scale of manufacturing design and processing has been developing rapidly. 3D printing technology has been practically used in all walks of life. 3D printing technology is characterized by its strong simulation, high efficiency, low cost and easy operation, which give people a great convenience. In this paper, the overall development trend of 3D printing technology is taken as an entry point. Based on the Mach3 control board, the author designs and analyzes the frame structure of 3D printer, the transmission part of 3D printer and the part of the control board of the 3D printer. The main control board of the control system is described and the working principle of the Mach3 host platform is described in detail. At the same time, by analyzing some problems occurred in the design process, and put forward a reasonable solution to the problem.
