Development of Portable House 3d Printer for Indian Needs
summary
A lightweight, laser‑cut modular portable polar printer and a six‑meter Delta prototype are developed and partially tested for printing rooms using local mixes (lime, rice‑husk, mud) with a manual auger and material‑agnostic approach; control runs on open source controllers (RAMPS and a 32‑bit controller) with servo/stepper drives, battery/solar backup, and counterweight mechanics. Printed blocks reach ~70–80 cm wet height, training reached 700+ people, and 3D house printing claims up to 40% cost savings.
