Multi-objective optimization of surface roughness, dimensional errors and density in FFF 3D-printed glass fiber-reinforced PP parts via adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference modeling

This paper aims to investigate the effect of FFF 3D printing parameters on surface roughness, dimensional error and density of glass fibre-filled polypropylene (GF/PP) parts, which is a promising material to be used to obtain surgical models for bones, due to its high thermal and mechanical properti...

Specifically, a low temperature of 230 ºC, a medium print speed of 20 mm/s, a high nozzle diameter of 0.8 mm and a low layer height of 0.1 mm were found to be optimal. This present study will help select appropriate 3D printing parameters when printing surgical models in glass fibre-filled PP materials, which have recently become commercially available in FFF processes and, thus, have been scarcely studied in the literature for their use in surgical models.This research was financed by the Spanish Agencia Estatal de Investigación (AEI) with grant PID2020-115647RB-C21, as well as by the Centre de Cooperació i Desenvolupament of Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (CCD-UPC) with grant CCD-2023-B011.Peer Reviewed20252025-08-0720252025-09-08journal articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501AMhttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_ab4af688f83e57aainfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://hdl.handle.net/2117/441266https://dx.doi.org/10.1108/RPJ-11-2024-0485reponame:UPCommons.
