Main objective of the project is to develop a newly designed compass and find the optimum build orientation for the rapid prototype (R.P.) model of compass build with FDM process. Analysis is carried out on various aspects like build time, build cost, model material and support material in order to find the optimum build orientation. General compass don’t have scale in it. For drawing the circle, scale is needed to measure the length of the radius or diameter. In this project R.P. models of compass is produced with scale provided in it. To check the functionality of the model, prototype is developed. It is very necessary that prototype should be economical and less time taking. To know the optimum built time and cost it was necessary to create the model at different angles. Complete study is made to find the optimum build orientation of the R.P. model. FEM analysis is also conducted to find the strength of the model material. Analysis was done using ANSYS software for ABS P400 and Polycarbonate – ISO (Plastic material) to choose the best model material for the FDM process in this project.
