Analysis of the influence of printing parameters on the compression resistance of PLA in the FDM process

What is it about?

This study explores how to make 3D-printed objects stronger and more durable, particularly useful in industrial and engineering settings. By experimenting with different printing settings, the research identifies the best combinations of layer thickness and internal structure (infill) to enhance the strength while keeping the printing process efficient and cost-effective. The findings help manufacturers produce better quality parts with fewer materials and in less time, making 3D printing a more practical choice for creating everything from simple tools to complex machine parts. This work not only improves current manufacturing techniques but also provides guidelines that others can follow to optimize their 3D printing processes.
