Abstract

Fused deposition Modelling (FDM) is the one of most striking and tremendously growing technology for manufacturing of 3D printed product. FDM technology was developed by stratasys. This technology was introduced in the era of 1980. FDM is additive manufacturing technology which fabricates products by extruding material technology through the nozzle in semi-molten state on the platform. Various thermoplastics such as PLA, ABS is widely used as a filament. But now a days modern FDM printers use abrasives such as aluminium, brass along with the PLA and ABS for printing to enhance the strength of printed specimen. This paper reviews effect of various parameters such as temperature, feed rate, print speed, orientation angle, infill density, nozzle size on thermal properties and mechanical properties of printed product. The temperature and feed rate are most important factors due to which wear of nozzle occurs.
