Abstract
3D printing is known as a method to construct 3 dimensional shapes by material addition layer by layer. The method has possibility to fabricate an electrical and mechanical product by a single process. This characteristic is favorable for personal fabrication. Additionally, it can fabricate the products with lower environmental load. In this paper, the characteristics of 3D printing and the product life cycle process are discussed. Especially, 3D printing with bio-degradable materials is considered. As a feasible personal fabrication schema with low environmental load, which is combined with module reuse process and disassembly process by users, is proposed.
