Evaluation of Mechanical Properties of Carbon Reinforced Composite for Different Process Parameters Using FDM
Abstract: Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) stands as an advanced rapid prototyping technique, widely appreciated for its efficiency in constructing functional components within a reasonable timeframe. In this experimental exploration, a comparative analysis of mechanical properties was conducted on components manufactured through the FDM technique, specifically with a 20% concentration of SCF-PLA. The study considered process variables like layer thickness, infill pattern, and infill density. Employing diverse process parameters, a standard sample …
