Eliminating Plastic Waste by Transitioning Machine Shop to Produce Its Own 3D Printer Filament
As 3D printing becomes more popular, the issue of excess plastic grows. In response, companies and hobbyists have developed recycling systems to turn waste material back into 3D printing filament. In the Laboratory for Manufacturing and Productivity (LMP), students use injection-molding and thermofo...
