摘要

Additive manufacturing through Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) has gained attention for its application in enhancing the properties of materials. In this study, 30% glass fiber reinforced Polyamide 6 polymer composite was employed for 3D printing. The resulting material exhibits exceptional dimensional stability, making it exceptionally robust even in challenging environmental conditions, setting it apart from many other 3D printing materials. PA6 with glass fiber filament is particularly suited for users requiring structural components subjected to high mechanical loads. In this research, we utilized FDM to 3D print test samples using this composite material, varying the shell thicknesses at 0.08 mm, 1.6 mm, and 2.4 mm. Subsequent evaluations of Toughness, tensile resistance, and flexural resistance were conducted, with the 2.4 mm shell thickness specimen demonstrating superior mechanical properties. This study underscores the potential of PA6 with glass fiber reinforcement in additive manufacturing, offering enhanced mechanical performance for structural components.
