Abstract

Addictive manufacturing (AM) or 3D printing has a huge potential in building products especially in a fabrication process. Fused deposition modelling is one of AM technologies that rapidly growing due to its ability to fabricate complex geometric parts with lower cost. However, this technique requires further improvement and further investigation due to the shortcomings such as poor surface finish and low mechanical strength. This work is to determine the best printing orientation to print a model for different mechanical properties, namely the tensile strength, impact strength, and hardness. ABS specimens are printed out according to the ASTM D638, ASTM D785, and ASTM D256 standard for each mechanical property. Experiments were conducted to investigate the mechanical properties. Samples printed in YZ (on edge) direction showed better tensile and impact behaviors than samples printed in XY and ZX directions. However, XY-axis (flat) is the best orientation if maximum hardness is the requirement.
