Abstract
Thermoplastic materials have great usage through FDM 3D printing technology. Today, FDM 3D printer is available to the broad population, and some of the thermoplastic materials is widely used due to their small price and availability. Such thermoplastic materials are ABS (Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) and PLA (Polylactic acid). In this paper the possibility of drone frame design optimization that can be made from ABS and PLA plastics using FDM 3D printing technology is analyzed.
Highlights
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) or air drones are flying robots that can be autonomous or remotely controlled by an operator from the ground
In this paper the possibility of drone frame design optimization that can be made from Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) and Polylactic Acid (PLA) plastics using FDM 3D printing technology is analyzed
Used shape construction consists of basic geometric shapes in 4 intersections with different shapes layout, there for, obtaining different complex 3D shapes for analysis
Summary
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) or air drones are flying robots that can be autonomous or remotely controlled by an operator from the ground. Their classification and application today is very wide. For that reason, they are subjected to extensive research and development, from design of body, design of components, development of control methods, energy efficiency improvements, etc. They are subjected to extensive research and development, from design of body, design of components, development of control methods, energy efficiency improvements, etc Drones have their application in civil and military sector.
