Abstract Scope |
We investigate the effect of the raster angle and the building direction on the surface roughness after milling 316L stainless steel parts printed using FDM/FFF technology. BASF Ultrafuse 316L metal 3D printing filament of 1.75 mm diameter will be used. Samples of 316L stainless steel are printed using Method X 3D printer made by Makerbot with the capability of printing parts using filaments of metal particles embedded in resin. The parts are printed at different raster angles that include 0˚, 30 ˚, 45˚, and 90˚ in two different building directions (flat and on the edge). The printed parts are sintered in a pipe furnace to obtain pure stainless-steel samples. The milling operation is performed in different directions with respect to the raster angle then we will measure the surface roughness and correlate it with the raster angle. |
