The Case: Parametric Analysis of Objects made by ABS using Fused Deposition Modeling

Since our last Blog many enthusiastic technocrats came to us who had amazing brain storming ideas on using 3d printed solutions in their projects. One of them was Mr.Shailesh Mali whosemain aim of his study was to determine the dimensional accuracy, flatness, and surface texture obtained in FDM rapid prototype with ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) material.

Main three parameter (layer thickness, orientation, and infill pattern) were changed in fused deposition modeling and different parameter like tensile strength, compressive strength, impact strength etc was analyzed.

The goal of this prototype was to improve the energy efficiency and reduce the power consumption of a 3D printer by employing an innovative and validated heating circuitry or platform without compromising print quality.

Tensile test specimens having dimensions 60 mm x 20 mm x 5 mm tests have been conducted by changing the infill patterns like linier, hexagonal and diamond for measuring Tensile strength (ASTMD 638). Parts are modeled and experiment is conducted as per ISO R527:1966 for tensile test.
