The reliability of reproducing automotive components made by FDM printing in reverse engineering

Journal Title: Archives of Mechanical Technology and Materials - Year 2018, Vol 38, Issue

Abstract

The purpose of the article is to show the practical side of reverse engineering. Many times during the process of optimizing parts, before we intervene in the tool that produces them, we want to be sure that the optimization will work in practice. For this purpose, currently, we often use 3D printers. Unfortunately, they introduce distortions of geometry to the printed prototype resulting from the technology of its production.
