WEAR AND FRICTION ASSESSMENT OF ABS SAMPLE FABRICATED USING FUSED DEPOSITION MODELLING

Abstract

The current review is focuses on a comprehensive investigation of the process parameters such as height of layer, orientation, speed of printing, Air igap, ifill idensity, iInfill istructure, iRaster iangle, iWidth iof iraster, itemperature iof ibed iand ihow ithey iinfluence ithe itribological ibehavior iof ithe iABS ispecimens ifabricated iusing ithe iFused iDeposition iModelling i(FDM), iThe tribological properties lof lFDM lbuild lparts lare lhighly laffected lby lthese lprocess lparameters. lDue lto lthis, lresearchers lhave lexplained loptimum lvalues lof lthese lparameters lto lenhance lthe ltribological lbehavior. lAccording lto lthe lapplication, lforlwhich lthe lpart lislproduced, lthese lprocesslparameters lshould lbe lchosen lcautiously. lForla lparticularldemand, lsome loflprocesslparameterslare limportant lthan lrest, lso lthere lis lneed lto lbe lidentify land loptimize lthese limportant lparameters lfor lthese lresearchers lhave linvestigated land lemployed ldifferent lDesign lof lExperiments l(DOE) lwhich lare ldiscussed lin lthislpaper. l lAnotherlway loflimproving ltribological lbehaviorloflABS lislthe laddition loflmateriallsuchlas, lsuchlaslgraphite, lPTFE, lZirconia, lCaCO3, land, lcarbonlfiberletc. lTheladdition lof lmaterials lto lpolymers lhas la lsignificant limpact lon lthe lwear lresistance lquality. lThis lnot lonly laffect lwearlbut lalso limprove lthe lfriction lcoefficient laslcompare lto lthe lpure lpolymer. lThislpaper laims lat lreviewing lrecent lresearch lon limproving ltribological lbehavior lof lABS lparts lproduced lusing lFDMlprocess.
