The present human society is supported by the tremendous consumption of resources, energies and advanced materials. The dominance of electronics in the present day world has been phenomenal. Each and every application (day to day), requires the use of electronics for better efficiency. The major factor considered here is the cost for manufacturing the electronic parts, which amounts to a phenomenal amount. The main aim of this project is to develop a system for printing nanoparticles. This system involves the use of lead screws along the X and the Y-axis for providing the forward and the reverse motion along the axis. These screws are driven by the help two DC servomotors, one on each axis respectively. The position control of the motors is done with the help of a microcontroller. The microcontroller is programmed to perform the desired function, with PC as the user interface. The interface between the computer and the microcontroller is established with the help of parallel port.
