RepRapable Recyclebot: A Revolutionary 3D Printing Solution, Priced Under $700, Can Replicate Its Own Parts in Just 24 Hours, Enabling a Cycle of Sustainable Innovation. The RepRapable Recyclebot's ability to produce the filament necessary for replicating its own parts makes it an innovative and cost-effective solution for any type of RepRap 3D printer. The device is fabricated from readily available materials at a cost of under $700, requiring just about 24 hours to complete. With the capability to transform pellets, regrind, and composite waste into usable filament, the Recyclebot opens up new possibilities for recycling and repurposing plastic materials. A comprehensive build guide can be found online, courtesy of Aubrey L. Woern, Joseph R. McCaslin, Adam M. Pringle, and Joshua M. Pearce. All necessary design files, STLs, code, and other supporting documents are freely available on the Open Science Framework (OSF) at https://osf.io/9hsmb/. For FreeCAD users, a convenient STP file is provided in the zip archive, allowing users to easily customize and modify specific parts as needed. By exporting individual components as .stp files and saving them under various formats, users can efficiently work with the design.
