Optimization in Extrusion Process for Polypropylene and High-Density Polyethylene Pellets in Additive Manufacturing of 3D Printing Filament
Journal Title: Engineering and Technology Journal - Year 2024, Vol 9, Issue 11
Abstract
The increasing demand for sustainable and cost-effective materials in additive manufacturing has driven research into optimizing the extrusion process for creating 3D printing filament from Polypropylene (PP) and High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) pellets. This study explores the critical parameters in the extrusion process, including temperature, and screw speed, to enhance the quality and consistency of the resulting filament. Through a series of controlled experiments, we analyze the effects of these parameters on the filament’s diameter, mechanical properties, and printability. Our findings demonstrate that by optimizing these variables, it is possible to produce high-quality 3D printing filament with excellent mechanical strength and dimensional accuracy, meeting industry standards. This research not only contributes to the broader adoption of PP and HDPE in 3D printing but also supports the development of more sustainable manufacturing practices by utilizing recyclable materials.
