Development of techniques for improving the layer adhesion of Fused Filament Fabrication 3D prints (2025)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Youll, L., & Vasantha, G. (2025, September). Development of techniques for improving the layer adhesion of Fused Filament Fabrication 3D prints. Presented at The International Conference on Manufacturing Research (ICMR2025), University of Birmingham, UK

Fused filament fabrication is inherently orthotropic, and there are some occasions where the geometry of the part forces the weak axis into use; improving this will increase the available strength when printing parts. A method for increasing the stre... Read More about Development of techniques for improving the layer adhesion of Fused Filament Fabrication 3D prints.
