Fused Deposition Modeling Technology to Redesign a Nylon Component
3D printing by means of the Fused Deposition Modeling technology allows to obtain accurately and with very good results, plastic parts with various, simple or complex typo-dimensions and forms. The part in this article is from the field of road vehicles, it is called fixing clamp and it is of average complexity of the hole strip type with two protuberances necessary to ensure the purpose for which they provided. The necessity of making the part through addition appeared because it is not the market and because it was not provided by the supplier [1]. The constructive solution offered by the producer is a very good and necessary one, in the same time for the user in the equipment in which it is included (fig. 10). The constructive solution proposed in this article resulted from tests on some parts of Acrylonitrile-Butadiene-Styrene and Nylon and the results were conclusive for choosing and adopting the Nylon variant.
