    Author : Praneet Kumar Reddt Salkuti; [2018]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) is a complex process that exhibits muchdifficulty in determining optimal parameters due to the presence of a large numberof conflicting parameters that will influence the part quality and materialproperties. The technology has the capability to fulfill the industrial requirementby customization of consumer-based product. READ MORE

  6. 20. Additive manufacturing : Optimization of process parameters for fused filament fabrication

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner

    Author : Vishal Hayagrivan; [2018]
    Keywords : Additive manufacturing AM ; Fused filament fabrication FFF ; Fused deposition modeling FDM ; Process parameters; Optimization; Tool path reversing; GCode parser; Stiffness prediction; Strength prediction; Inter-layer bonding;

    Abstract : An obstacle to the wide spread use of additive manufacturing (AM) is the difficulty in estimating the effects of process parameters on the mechanical properties of the manufactured part. The complex relationship between the geometry, parameters and mechanical properties makes it impractical to derive an analytical relationship and calls for the use of a numerical model. READ MORE
