Increased interest in fused deposition modeling (FDM) resulting, for example, from its use in the production of utility models determines the undertaking of research on mechanical and rheological properties of materials. Mechanical and rheological properties of models made of materials used in FDM technology depend on technological parameters. In this paper, the effect of 0° and 90° print orientation on stress relaxation was analyzed. Additionally, the usefulness of the rheological model to describe the relaxation curve was evaluated. Stress relaxation tests were performed by tensile testing. The five-parameter Maxwell-Wiechert model was used to describe stress relaxation. The tests showed little effect of print orientation on the rheological parameters of the five-parameter model. The Maxwell-Wiechert model showed a very good approximation to the stress relaxation curves.

Abstract Additive manufacture, specifically Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM), is an advancing manufacture method opening up new possibilities in design previously impossible to machine, in a relatively affordable way. However, its use in functional products is limited due to anisotropic strength and reduced strength from injection molded components. This paper aims to increase the tensile strength of Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) in the weakest direction (Z axis), where poor interlayer fusion and air gaps between extruded trails reduce strength. Extra thermal energy was applied to the top surface layer during the printing process (through hot air) to encourage more polymer chain diffusion across the boundary, and spreading out to fill air gaps. Multiple tensile test samples were printed at a variety of heat levels. The ultimate tensile strength σuts was plotted against these temperatures and a weak positive correlation was found. However, only air temperatures above 81°C increased strength past the control to a maximum of 1.4MPa. Heat application has proven to increase tensile strength, but needs to be applied with a more precise method, to the boundary interface, to allow greater thermal energy transfer without sacrificing print quality.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of size of strut radius to the natural frequencies of acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) polymer lattice-structure bar material by using vibration technique. The lattice structured cellular material parts with body-centered-cubic (BCC) topological design are manufactured using fused deposition modeling (FDM) additive manufacturing (AM) technique with aim to reduce the overall weight of automated device. The specimens are tested by using set up consist of fabricated test rig, accelerometer, force sensor, power amplifier, shaker and signal generator/analyzer. The first mode natural frequency obtained from the vibration testing for specimen with 1.0 mm strut radius is 278 Hz while specimen with 1.2 mm strut radius is 441 Hz. The results obtained from vibration testing show that bigger size of strut radius will yield higher natural frequencies and the lattice structure bar is suitable for use as arm body part in automated device. By utilizing FDM AM, industry will be able to benefit in term of saving in fabrication cost as well as energy consumption.

Printing Parameters

Abstract3D polymer-based printers have become easily accessible to the public. Usually, the technology used by these 3D printers is Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM). The majority of these 3D printers mainly use acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) and polylactic acid (PLA) to fabricate 3D objects. In order for the printed parts to be useful for specific applications, the mechanical properties of the printed parts must be known. The aim of this study is to determine the tensile strength and elastic modulus of printed materials in polylactic acid (PLA) according to three important printing parameters such as deposition angle, extruder temperature and printing speed. The central composite design (CCD) was used to reduce the number of tensile test experiments. The obtained results show that the mechanical properties of printed parts depend on printing parameters. Empirical models relating response and process parameters are developed. The analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to test the validity of models relating response and printing parameters. The optimal printing parameters are determined for the desired mechanical properties.

This paper presents an investigation on rheological properties of a new ABS (acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene)-Iron composite for application in Fused Deposition Modelling rapid prototyping process. Test samples of ABS-Iron composites have been made by controlled centrifugal mixing and thermal compounding through a single-screw extruder and compression moulding. Rheological characterization was conducted using a capillary rheometer by measuring pressure drop at the die while varying the extrusion speed. Apparent shear rate and shear stress as well as viscosity of the melts were calculated. Modulated differential-scanning calorimetry (MDSC) techniques were used in order to characterize viscoelastic properties of these newly developed composites materials. Non-Newtonian behaviour of the composite melt has shown to follow a cross model of shear thinning characteristics.

Abstract Additive Manufacturing (AM) can be deployed for space exploration purposes, such as fabricating different components of robots’ bodies. The produced AM parts should have desirable thermal and mechanical properties to withstand the extreme environmental conditions, including the severe temperature variations on moon or other planets which cause changes in parts’ strengths and may fail their operation. Therefore, the correlation between operational temperature and mechanical properties of AM fabricated parts should be evaluated. In this study, three different types of polymers, including polylactic acid (PLA), polyethylene terephthalate glycol (PETG), and acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), were used in Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) process to fabricate several parts. The mechanical properties of produced parts were then investigated at various temperatures to generate knowledge on the correlation between temperature and type of material. When varying the operational temperature during tensile tests, the material’s glass transition temperature was found influential in determining the type of material failure. Among the materials used, ABS showed the best mechanical properties at all temperatures due to its highest glass transmission temperatures. The results of statistical analysis indicated the temperature as the significant factor on tensile strength while the change in material did not show a significant effect.

Minimal Work

Friction-based welding is one of the most cost-effective and dependable methods for joining thermoplastics. However, there has been minimal work that has demonstrated the procedure/methods/equipment for welding two distinct types of thermoplastics. There is, nevertheless, a significant possibility of connecting the various thermoplastic materials by matching their melt flow index (MFI). One way for modifying the MFI is to reinforce it with micro/nano sized fillers. Fused deposition modelling (FDM) is a fast prototyping technology that employs thermoplastic-based filament to print components. The current study focuses on connecting aluminium (Al) metal powder reinforced acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) and polyamide 6 (PA6) thermoplastic substrates (3D printed by FDM) utilising friction welding (FW) / friction stir welding (FSW) / friction stir spot welding (FSSW). It was observed that the PA6 with 50% Al fillers (PA6-50% Al) and ABS matrix with 15% Al fillers (ABS-15% Al) produced MFIs of 11.97g/10min and 11.57g/10min, respectively.

In this publication, we describe the process of fabrication and the analysis of the properties of nanocomposite filaments based on carbon nanotubes and acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) polymer for fused deposition modeling (FDM) additive manufacturing. Polymer granulate was mixed and extruded with a filling fraction of 0.99, 1.96, 4.76, 9.09 wt.% of CNTs (carbon nanotubes) to fabricate composite filaments with a diameter of 1.75 mm. Detailed mechanical and electrical investigations of printed test samples were performed. The results demonstrate that CNT content has a significant influence on mechanical properties and electrical conductivity of printed samples. Printed samples obtained from high CNT content composites exhibited an improvement in the tensile strength by 12.6%. Measurements of nanocomposites’ electrical properties exhibited non-linear relation between the supply voltage and measured sample resistivity. This effect can be attributed to the semiconductor nature of the CNT functional phase and the occurrence of a tunnelling effect in percolation network. Detailed I–V characteristics related to the amount of CNTs in the composite and the supply voltage influence are also presented. At a constant voltage value, the average resistivity of the printed elements is 2.5 Ωm for 4.76 wt.% CNT and 0.15 Ωm for 9.09 wt.% CNT, respectively. These results demonstrate that ABS/CNT composites are a promising functional material for FDM additive fabrication of structural elements, but also structural electronics and sensors.
