Abstract
Additive manufacturing (AM), often known as 3D printing, is a cutting-edge manufacturing process. Fused deposition modelling (FDM), one of the most renowned additive manufacturing (AM) technologies, has increased in popularity in recent decades because it can build complicated geometries that traditional production methods cannot. Polymer-based materials are commonly used in fused deposition modelling (FDM), but they lack certain qualities that make them suitable for use in broader applications. In this study, we investigated the melt flow behaviour of a new material used to make filament wire for 3D printing applications. ABS pellets were reinforced with the various weight percentages (3%, 6%, 9%, 12%, 15%, 18%, and 20%) of aluminium and copper powder combined to form a composite, and the melt flow properties of the composite were studied. The results of the melt flow index (MFI) test show that the MFI value of ABS significantly varies depending on the weight percentage of the reinforced metal.
