Abstract:The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of insertion of controlled composition gradient layer on mechanical characteristics of composite specimens made by Fused Deposition Modeling(FDM)type 3D printer equipped with co-axial extruder. The tensile characteristics of composite filaments made from Poly-Lactic Acid(PLA)and Glycol-modified PolyEthylene Terephthalate(PETG) , in which compositions were varied from each other, were investigated. Test results showed that the tensile characteristics of co… Show more
