Structural and Dimensional Analysis by Computed Tomography of a Multi Geometric Template Manufactured by Fused Deposition Modeling

As a consequence of the development of AM, strategies have been developed to optimize the printing process, which focuses on reducing manufacturing time, such as using genetic algorithms (GAs), among others. The effect caused by the modification of path patterns is an effect of interest in two aspec...

description As a consequence of the development of AM, strategies have been developed to optimize the printing process, which focuses on reducing manufacturing time, such as using genetic algorithms (GAs), among others. The effect caused by the modification of path patterns is an effect of interest in two aspects: dimensional assurance focused on the compliance of the dimensions of the components in comparison with the digital design of the components, and the structural composition and resistance that the printing process itself can generate. This paper aims to present the effect of optimizing the path of fused filament fabrication (FFF) equipment on the dimensional finish and structural quality of a multi-geometric component using computed tomography. For this purpose, a template composed of 23 geometric elements, printed using FFF technology and PLA as the base material, is used. The results show an 11% reduction in the total process time required to print the component. The effect on the dimensional precision of different geometric elements was identified. In addition, it was possible to ensure that the structural quality of the multi-geometric component was not affected by the modification of the path required by the printing process.
