Resistencia a compresión de los objetos impresos en 3D atendiendo a la orientación de su construcción laminar

Abstract

This study tries to carry out the compression tests pertinent

to a part manufactured using the 3D printing technique. In

these tests, we will take into account the dimension of the

pieces, the type of filament, the slicing parameters and, above

all, the direction of the printing plane. With this research

we want to publicize the new processes associated with 3D

printing and how we can improve existing technology. The

main objective is to compare the difference between the

compressive strength of a 3D printed part, when the force

acts in a direction parallel to the printing layers, and when

it acts in a perpendicular direction. In this way, we can

determine the position of the part in the printer and avoid

the possible deformation problems that exist with this new

additive production technique. Finally, we will make some

conclusions derived from the study, and will make proposals

for new avenues of research. With this article we intend to

demonstrate the importance of the process of printing a part,

the placement on the work plane and the materials used.
