Abstract
In this paper, the mechanical properties of Polyethylene terephthalate-glycol (PETG) tensile test specimens have been investigated. The test pieces were prepared using fused deposition modelling (FDM) 3D printing technology. Three print settings were examined which are: raster direction angles, print orientations, and infill percentage and patterns in order to evaluate the anisotropy of objects when employing FDM print method. The variations in stress-strain curves, tensile strength values and elongation at break among the tested samples were studied and compared. Illustration for the broken specimens after the tensile test was accomplished to know how the test pieces printed with various parameters were fractured. A comparison with some previous results regarding the elongation at break has been carried out.
