  Optimization of Process Parameter in 3D Printing to Minimize Wear Loss and increase Tensile Strength

  By Mayank Kumar Tiwari, Vivek Singh, Sachin Srivastava, Dharmendra Kumar Dubey, Mahendra Pratap Yadav, Suraj Kumar

  Abstract: Additive Manufacturing (AM) and especially Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) has emerged as a very versatile process of manufacturing polymer components with complex and highly-integrated geometries. Polylactic Acid (PLA) is a favorite of the many thermoplastic FDM materials because of its biodegradability, easy processing and predictable mechanical properties. The study aimed at maximizing critical parameters in FDM process in order to reduce wear loss and also increase tensile strength of PLA …

  Design and Development of Additive Manufacturing Machine

  By S. U. Belgamwar, Sujit G. Gaikwad, Prasad M. Kulkarni, Chinmay H. Walvekar, Pravin S. Jetithor

  Abstract: Rapid prototyping, commonly referred to as 3D printing or additive manufacturing (AM), is the process of creating three-dimensional objects by layer-by-layer addition of material. It is very different from subtractive and conventional forming techniques. The goal of this special issue is to gather research and advancements in additive manufacturing (AM), with an emphasis on novel manufacturing techniques and substitute products and materials for feedstock. Although metal and polymer-based materials have …
