초록

The recent 3D printing industry has been focusing on developing 3D printers to fulfill the user's need to bring more colorful and realistic outcomes. Several 3D printers have deployed multiple extruders to print different colors. However, this method has a limit on its availability of colors. To solve this, recent research is focused on using mixing chambers to mix the possible colors to provide more color availability. In this paper, we discuss the environment and algorithm behind the development of G-code which allows a gradation effect of the mix of two filaments. The generation algorithm to make gradient G-code has been implemented in Cura using C ++ and Python.
