| Summary: | Fused Deposition Modeling(FDM) is one of the Rapid Prototyping(RP)
Technologies to produces plastic prototypes from acrylonitrile butadiene styrene(ABS)
which has control over numerous processing variables that will impact the quality of the
fabricated part. The ability to select the optimal process parameters has been a major
concern for part quality improvement. This work was undertaken to determine parameters
which influence the part quality for FDM Waterworks Soluble Support(WSS) system
.The effect of these factors on FDM performance or response were investigated and the
optimum conditions of those responses were established. Design Of Experiments (DOE)
was used to perform the experiments. Experimental results were analysed by using
Minitab software to obtain the significant parameters and to optimize the setting.
Pareto Chart, Analysis of Variance(ANOVA), Main Effect plot and Regression were
employed to determine the significant parameters and to generates recommendations of
process variables setting and the associated predict build outcomes for FDM process .
Finally, validation tests were conducted to verify the model of each responses against the
actual results. |
