Tribological Processes in TPU and HIPS 3D Printing Materials

This paper discusses two types of 3D printed materials and their tribological properties in terms of coefficients of sliding friction, rolling friction and coefficient of restitution. The coefficients have been measured experimentally under laboratory conditions and it is compared to other 3D printed materials. After the experiments, a simulation models have been created to verify the data obtained. The data obtained will be used to create simulation models in which the interaction between the grinding bodies and the grinding media takes place in order to increase the accuracy of the simulation models.
