Escuela de Ingenierías Industriales K1 Impresoras - Innovaciones tecnológicas K1 Kaplock (Empresa) K1 Recuperación (Residuos, etc.) K1 Materias plásticas - Moldeado por inyección - Reciclaje AB The project given to Team D of the 2018 Fall EPS group was to develop a machine that would recycle old 3D printed parts, support structures, and failed prints into new filament to use in a 3D printer. The main reason why this project was carried out was that the company Kaplock B.V. produces an excess of PLA waste. To solve this issue, the team created a recycler that reduces the waste produced by the company. This was an important solution because it would allow Kaplock B.V. to save money and create a circular lifecycle for the PLA. The machine that Team D created receives PLA in the form of old prints, failed prints, or support structures. The recycler then crushes the parts into smaller pieces, so the PLA can be melted into liquid. This liquid plastic is then pushed through a nozzle to ensure a correct diameter that meets industry standards. The final step in the process is to coil the filament onto a spool so it can be reused in a 3D printer.
