Abstract
This article describes the design and implementation of a 3D printer prototype based on a delta parallel robot, which decreases printing time without losing quality in the final product. In addition, the free software, Repertier, was used for programming and GUI. For height calibration of printer dock, an automatic leveling system was develop through an inductive sensor in order to avoid manual handling.
