Abstract
This invention teaches a nozzle assembly for a 3D FDM color printer for residential usage that is capable of printing multicolored 3D objects based on a users' input file. The nozzle assembly has at least two separate inputs for filament. Each filament can be liquefied by heating elements in a controlled manner and then mixed with other filaments in a mixing block portion of the nozzle to create a variety of colors for use in printing the 3D object. A closed loop water cooling system connected to the cooling block portion of the nozzle assembly prevents the filament from liquefying outside of the mixing block and clogging the nozzle assembly. In a preferred embodiment there are five filament inputs for the colors white, black, cyan, magenta, and yellow to cover the color spectrum.
