Why is it important?
This paper will inform readers how possible it is to achieve full FDM part strength in the z-axis direction and how to maximize it. Additional problems related to printed accuracy and resolution are described, and all results are theoretically justified from a polymer processing perspective.
Perspectives
This article is practically useful for anyone who is printing parts with fused filament fabrication. Affects of various processing conditions are accompanied with sound explanations of what is likely occurring in within the solidifying polymer.
