Experimental Measurement and Testing of 3D Printed Parts in Terms of the Material Used

As part of my research work, in its practical part, I deal with the selection of suitable 3D printing pa-rameters for parts of a robotic kit, as well as the selection of a 3D printer and the determination of a set of experimental measurements and testing in order to obtain the necessary data to determine a suitable filament material for 3D printing of a part of a robotic kit and setting the appropriate 3D printing parameters to obtain the desired mechanical properties of the parts while maintaining the economic benefits of 3D printing. The main aspects for choosing a filament material are printability in primary and secondary school conditions, easy printing (beginner level), minimal postprocessing, adequate mechanical properties – these are obtained by experimental measurement and correspon-ding destructive tests on a real part from the VEX GO and IQ kit.
