Abstract
Additive manufacturing (AM) techniques have been implemented in a wide range of applications. Fused deposition modelling (FDM) is a part of AM techniques, and it is most popularly known manufacturing technique that fabricates convoluted parts in 3D well within minimum time and without the use of tools, dies, fixtures or human interference. In present days, FDM fabricates completely operational parts rather than prototypes due to recent advancements in AM technologies. FDM have so many process parameters that affect mechanical behaviour of part hence fabrication of completely operational parts using FDM becomes difficult. Furthermore, less work has been carried out on the impact of FDM parameters on mechanical behaviour of nylon glass fibre (glass fibre reinforced nylon) material. Influence of three process parameters, namely layer thickness, extrusion temperature and infill speed, with three levels each on tensile properties of nylon glass fibre is investigated using Taguchi approach in this work. In addition, regression analysis is also performed for developing the mathematical model and analyse the significant influence of process parameters.
