Review on Process Parameters of FDM and Their Impact on Tensile Strength and Wear Resistance of Additive Manufacturing Specimen (original) (raw)

Additive Manufacturing (AM) is an advanced manufacturing process which reduces the physical involvement of human beings for producing products. All we required is to make a three-dimensional CAD module and feed it to a threedimensional printer. During its beginning it was just used to make a prototype, as more research has been taking place to improve its ability to make a good product due to which now it is able to produce the final product. Whenever we think about producing a product using additive manufacturing it is necessary to wisely choose the right material, right AM technique and their process parameters which fulfill the requirements. In this paper we are reviewing the process parameters of the most popularly used AM technique that is Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) and their effect on tensile and wear strength of the printed specimen. For our study we are majorly focused on PLA and Carbon PLA as PLA is mostly use and environment friendly.
