Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) is a widely used 3D printing technology that can create a diverse range of objects. However, achieving the desired mechanical properties of printed parts can be challenging due to various printing parameters. Residual stress is a critical issue in FDM, which can significantly impact the performance of printed parts. In this study, we used Digimat-AM software to conduct numerical simulations and predict residual stress in Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) material printed using FDM. We varied six printing parameters, including printing temperature, printing speed, and infill percentage, with four values for each parameter. Our results showed that residual stress was positively correlated with printing temperature, printing speed, and infill percentage, and negatively correlated with layer thickness. Bed temperature did not have a significant effect on residual stress. Finally, using a concentric infill pattern produced the lowest residual stress. The methodology used in this study involved conducting numerical simulations with Digimat-AM software, which allowed us to accurately predict residual stress in FDM-printed ABS parts. The simulations were conducted by systematically varying six printing parameters, with four values for each parameter. The resulting data allowed us to identify correlations between residual stress and printing parameters, and to determine the optimal printing conditions for minimizing residual stress. Our findings contribute to the existing literature by providing insight into the relationship between residual stress and printing parameters in FDM. This information is important for designers and manufacturers who wish to optimize their FDM printing processes for improved part performance. Overall, our study highlights the importance of considering residual stress in FDM printing, and provides valuable information for optimizing the printing process to reduce residual stress in ABS parts.

The influence of the natural Gongura roselle fiber on the tensile and flexural properties as well as on Shore D hardness of acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) and poly (lactic acid) (PLA) was investigated. The composites were printed in fused deposition modeling (FDM) 3D technique. The addition of natural fiber improved the mechanical properties of the tested composites, while the flexural strength, modulus and hardness were better in the case of ABS-based composite. Whereas, PLA-based composites showed higher tensile strength. The influence of the nozzle angle on the mechanical properties of the composites was also investigated. The best results have been obtained when using an angle of 0°.

Zbadano wpływ naturalnego włókna Gongura roselle na właściwości mechaniczne przy rozciąganiu i zginaniu oraz twardość Shore’a D akrylonitrylu-butadienu-styrenu (ABS) i poli(kwasu mlekowego) (PLA). Kompozyty otrzymano metodą osadzania topionego materiału (FDM) w technice 3D. Dodatek naturalnego włókna poprawił właściwości mechaniczne badanych kompozytów, przy czym wytrzymałość na zginanie, moduł sprężystości i twardość były lepsze w przypadku kompozytu na osnowie ABS. Natomiast kompozyty na osnowie PLA miały większą wytrzymałość na rozciąganie. Zbadano również wpływ kąta ustawienia dyszy na właściwości mechaniczne kompozytów. Najlepsze wyniki uzyskano stosując kąt 0°.

The fabrication of polymer-based nanocomposites by means of twin extruders is a typical method for manufacturing lightweight and high-strength structures. However, selection of the optimal parameters for this process to study the material characteristics is important. The primary aim of the present study was to ascertain the optimum extruder temperature and nanosilica content in an acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene matrix composite. The response surface methodology was based on two factors and three levels. The identification of the effect of the parameters on the fatigue behavior of the fabricated composite was comprehensively analyzed. The results were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The obtained results revealed that up to 4% nano-SiO2 improves tensile strength and reduces the impact toughness. On the other hand, an increase in the extrusion temperature yields a higher impact toughness and lower tensile strength. The optimization results showed that 2.5% nanosilica and the extrusion temperature of 225°C result in the maximum tensile strength of 41 MPa, and impact toughness of 30 KJ/m2.
