Abstract

Fused filament fabricated (FFF) parts generally show anisotropic mechanical properties. Moreover, the anisotropy in FFF-printed parts varies with polymeric materials, depending on their characteristic relaxation and/or crystallization behavior. To acquire an in-depth understanding of the mechanical anisotropy induced by the FFF technique, polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) was chosen to investigate the effect of nozzle temperatures and nozzle speed on the mechanical properties of FFF-printed parts. In addition annealing of the samples at different times was chosen as a post-processing method to improve the mechanical properties. The optimized conditions through the highest value were selected by analyzing the Gray Relational Grade (GRG) values in the 16th trial using ANOVA and S/N investigation. It is found that increasing nozzle temperature gives rise to a decrease in crystallinity, slightly improving the tensile strength of the PPS parts with the deposited strands parallel to the loading direction (i.e. raster angle = 90°). Finally, manufacturing an impeller with optimized parameters was investigated by probing the surface through SEM and analyzing the geometrical accuracy from a 3D scanner.
