Abstract

This paper reports an experimental study on power consumption of PolyJet 3D printing. Controllable variables studied are location of samples on the build platform and volume of printed samples. The measured output is “Power Efficiency”: electrical power consumed per unit volume (cubic millimeter) of printed samples. Power Efficiency values are determined by dividing the product of consumed wattage and total print time by total volume of samples. Samples of different volumes are placed at different locations on the build platform. The results show that Power Efficiency is higher when samples are arranged along the X axis than when they are arranged along the Y axis.
