3D printer, layer height, printing orientation, tensile strength, surface roughness.Abstract
This study attempted to investigate the effect of printing orientation and layer height on mechanical and topological properties of printed ABS specimens. 2 printing orientations (xy and yz) with 3 different layer heights (0.1, 0.2 and 0.3mm) were chosen and specimens were printed utilizing a 3D printer. Tensile, morphological and topological properties were evaluated utilizing Universal Testing Machine (Shimadzu AGX-2plus), FESEM and surface profilometer respectively. Statistical analysis of two-way Anova was carried out to investigate the relationship of layer height and printing orientation on the tensile strength and surface roughness of the specimens
