3D Printing for the Development of Robots by the Students

A way to increase the practical work with the own designed and developed components by the students are presented. The components are developed using 3-D printing systems designed and achieved by the students. These two 3D printing systems designed for the development of different components for robots and mechatronic systems to be used by the students are described. This type of system represents a low-cost way of experimenting with robots or mechatronic systems for the students. A system that facilitates experimentation plays an important role in students’ training. In this way the students can design practical solutions for their projects or for competitions. The benefits of using 3D printing and computer-aided design (CAD) for practical training of the students are presented, too.
