Abstract

Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) filament is used to fabricate tensile specimens considering the inbuilt printing parameters and in order to investigate the relations between the print parameters and their strength properties. Printed specimens are characterized and their strength properties is assessed performed by Finite Element Analysis (FEA). The variation in the printing parameter and its influence on the tensile behavior is found to replicate by FEA simulation. Morphological studies were also done using Scanning Electron Microscopy and Optical Microscopy to investigate the tensile fracture behaviors. This study aims to investigate the 3D Printed tensile specimens and its optimal mechanical properties. It also adds value to the researchers to fine-tune and control the properties based on the applications.
