Abstract

With the development of 3D printing technology, there is a development in the use of new printing materials. In practice, it often happens that the constructor does not have full data about the material that he wants to use. The article presents the results of tests of tensile strength of samples printed using the FDM method. 3D printing using the FDM method is widespread, however, the properties of the materials used in this method are still not fully understood. The aim of the research was to obtain information on strength parameters that form the basis for further analyzes.

Highlights

  • FDM is a popular 3D printing method due to the wide range of properties of available materials [1,2,3,4] and low prices of printers used in this method

  • Samples intended for testing can be printed with different parameters, and may have different internal structure. For these reasons, standardized samples were tested - material properties determined in this way will be a reference point in further research on 3D printed cellular structures

  • The following materials were selected for strength tests: PLA, PETG, smart ABS, PLA PRO, HIPS, ASA, polycarbonate (PC-IN), Nylon (PA12) and nanocarbon (PA12+CF)

Summary

Introduction

FDM is a popular 3D printing method (e.g. in the case of machine elements manufacturing) due to the wide range of properties of available materials [1,2,3,4] and low prices of printers used in this method.To be able to take full advantage of the properties of materials, one must first get to know them well. FDM is a popular 3D printing method (e.g. in the case of machine elements manufacturing) due to the wide range of properties of available materials [1,2,3,4] and low prices of printers used in this method. Information on material properties does not contain data on how to prepare samples for testing these properties. Samples intended for testing can be printed with different parameters, and may have different internal structure. For these reasons, standardized samples were tested - material properties determined in this way will be a reference point in further research on 3D printed cellular structures.
