Abstract

Abstract Additive technology uses a wide range of materials. Beginning from plastic material, different types of resin but also steel material. Presented paper deals with Fused Deposition Modeling technology which is focused to processing of plastic materials based on polymers. Mostly used are ABS plastic (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene), Nylon, Polycarbonate (PC), or composites based on different polymers. New devices designed for the production of plastic parts are able to work also with environmentally friendly and biodegradable materials as Polylactic acid (PLA). The aim of this paper is to show the possibility of using materials based on organic polymers whose properties are comparable to conventionally used polymers. Presented are measured and statistically evaluated data related to basic properties of PLA material.
