Tensile Testing of 3D Printed Materials Made by Different Temperature

The work is focused effect of different temperature nozzle in additive manufacturing process FFF (Fused Filament Fabrication) technology for the most common materials (PLA, PETG and ABS). A standard specimen internal structure arranged +/- 45 degrees in longitudinal print direction with 100% infill. For the exact testing are used no perimetres. The specimens were printed by minimal, middle and maximum nozzle temperature. Temperature range is given by the filament company. To ensure relevant testing materials from the same company in one colour were used. A printed specimens were testing by destructive testing method on tensile testing machine. For testing were made five specimens in one setting. Finally, were made 45 specimens for tensile testing.

Automated summary

This study focuses on comparing the effect of different temperature nozzles in FFF technology on common materials, and evaluates the results through tensile testing of standard specimens.
