3D printing innovation, as a quick prototyping, utilize plastic or metal as the crude material to print the genuine parts layer by layer. In this way, it is likewise called added substance producing procedure. Contrasted and conventional assembling innovation, 3D printing innovation has evident points of interest in assembling items with complex shapes and structures. Fused deposition modeling (FDM) is one of the most broadly utilized 3D printing advances. Fibers of thermoplastic materials, for example, polylactic acid is for the most part utilized as crude materials. The present examination will concentrate on the effect of the infill density, percent on the flexural strength of polylactic acid. Bending test was performed on different infill density, percent of specimens. According to ASTM D638.14 standards, samples for testing are made in different infill density, percent (20, 30, 40, 50 and 60 %) by using a polylactic acid in 3D machine printing and their tensile tested and the parameters include different fill density, layer high of 0.1 mm , 0.2mm and 0.3 have an effect on the mechanical characterized while the time of printing the sample would be increased with increasing of fill density%. The tensile strength of polylactic acid samples was found at different fill density and a layer thickness. According to test measuring results that the tensile strength, maximum 47.1,47.4, and 48 MPa at 30%,40%,and 50% fill density respectively and 0.1mm height layer and the tensile strength minimum at 60% and 70 % fill density and 0.1 mm height layer thickness. The higher strength results as higher layer thickness 0.3 mm as compared with 0.1 and 0.2 at 30%fill density.
