Abstract
The objective of this study is to compare the quality of 3D printed models manufactured using the Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) method. The samples were fabricated using a robotic arm with 4 axes and conventional 3D printers. The focus of this experiment lies in assessing the influence of the devices’ structural design on the resulting quality of the 3D printed models. Additionally, the study aims to identify the strengths and limitations of each device and define their respective applicability. The 3D model designed for this investigation comprises intricate geometrical shapes specifically chosen to evaluate the precision and repeatability of layer deposition while establishing geometric tolerances and determining shape deviations. The samples were 3D printed under identical printing conditions and parameters, and subsequently, these produced samples will undergo 3D digitization through an optical scanner, namely ATOS II Triple Scan. The obtained data will then be subjected to a comparative analysis utilizing GOM Inspect software to determine the geometric tolerances. The findings from this analysis will be critically evaluated and serve as a basis for informing and guiding future research endeavors.
