Abstract:

Fused filament fabrication (FFF) is one of the most popular additive manufacturing (AM) processes that utilize thermoplastic polymers to produce three-dimensional (3D) geometry products. The FFF filament materials have a significant role in determining the properties of the final part produced, such as mechanical properties, thermal conductivity, and electrical conductivity. This article intensively reviews the state-of-the-art materials for FFF filaments. To date, there are many different types of FFF filament materials that have been developed. The filament materials range from pure thermopl

AbstractIn Fused Filament Fabrication, there is increasing interest in the potential of composite filaments for producing complex and load-bearing components. Carbon fibre-filled polyamide currently has highest available strength and stiffness, but promising variants are not in filament form. This paper investigates filament production of commercially available, high-filled PA-CF pellets by modifying a tabletop filament extruder. We show filament production is possible by improving cooling. The FFF printed specimens show an average UTS of 135.5 MPa, higher than most commercially available fila

Abstract:

Polylactic acid (PLA), a biodegradable and biocompatible thermoplastic commonly utilized in 3D Printing filaments, undergoes changes in properties upon recycling. The objective was to elucidate the role of extrusion temperature and screw speed in modulating the quality of recycled PLA filament, as well as in controlling its dimensional attributes. Recycled PLA pellets (3D850D) were extruded using a single filament extruder machine within an extrusion temperature range of 145°C to 165°C and a screw speed varying from 2 rpm to 6 rpm. The extruded filaments were subsequently 3D printed into speci

Abstract:

The presence of polymer material filaments plays a crucial role in the realm of 3D printing. These filaments are utilized in 3D printing to create prototype products efficiently and cost-effectively. However, ensuring the production of high-quality prototype products necessitates the use of superior filaments characterized by consistent diameter and a round cross-section. Filaments are typically manufactured through an extrusion process using either a single screw extruder or a twin extruder.

AbstractThe heating and extrusion process in fused filament fabrication (FFF) is significantly shorter than the conventional extrusion process where longer heating times and significant pressure are applied. For this reason, it is important to understand whether the crystal history of the feedstock is fully erased through the FFF process and whether the FFF process can be tailored further by engineering the crystallization of the feedstock filaments. In this context, a methodology for evaluating the influence of morphology and mechanical properties on different feedstock and extruded filaments

Fused deposition modeling (FDMTM) is a 3D-printing technology of rising interest for the manufacturing of customizable solid dosage forms. The coupling of hot-melt extrusion with FDMTM is favored to allow the production of pharma-grade filaments for the printing of medicines. Filament diameter consistency is a quality of great importance to ensure printability and content uniformity of 3D-printed drug delivery systems. A systematical process analysis referring to filament diameter variations has not been described in the literature. The presented study aimed at a process setup optimization and

Abstract:

Fused filament fabrication (FFF) is one of the most popular additive manufacturing (3D printing) technologies due to the growing availability of low-cost desktop 3D printers and the relatively low cost of the thermoplastic filament used in the 3D printing process. Commercial filament suppliers, 3D printer manufacturers, and end-users regard filament diameter tolerance as an important indicator of the 3D printing quality. Irregular filament diameter affects the flow rate during the filament extrusion, which causes poor surface quality, extruder jams, irregular gaps in-between individual extrusi

The article presents the results of research on the influence of the natural moisture of a filament made of acrylonitrile–butadiene–styrene terpolymer (ABS) on the mechanical properties and quality of products fabricated with fused filament fabrication (FFF). The concept of the natural moisture of the filament was defined, and the range of its variability was identified in reference to the range of the natural ambient humidity. It is shown that a change in the ambient humidity by 10% resulted in a change in filament moisture by about 0.05%. The results of the research on the moisture variabili

Polymer filaments represent the fundamental materials employed in fused filament fabrication additive manufacturing. This paper uses an innovative nondestructive evaluation technique for gauging the elastic properties of these polymer filaments. The method hinges on acoustic wave scattering theory, wherein a polymer filament is immersed in water and exposed to an incident acoustic wave. The waves scattered from the cylinder contain crucial information concerning the elastic properties of the filament. To extract these properties, an inverse method is applied which compares the resonance freque
