This research objective is to optimize the surface roughness of Nylon-6 (PA-6) and Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) by analyzing the parametric effects of the Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) technique of Three-Dimensional Printing (3DP) parameters. This article discusses how to optimize the surface roughness using Taguchi analysis by the S/N ratio, ANOVA, and modeling methods. The effects of ABS parameters (initial line thickness, raster width, bed temperature, build pattern, extrusion temperature, print speed, and layer thickness) and PA-6 parameters (layer thickness, print speed, extrusion temperature, and build pattern) were investigated with the average surface roughness (Ra) and root-mean-square average surface roughness (Rq) as response parameters. Validation tests revealed that Ra and Rq decreased significantly. After the optimization, the Ra-ABS and Rq-PA-6 for the fabricated optimized values were 1.75 µm and 21.37 µm, respectively. Taguchi optimization of Ra-ABS, Rq-ABS, Ra-PA-6, and Rq-PA-6 was performed to make one step forward to use them in further research and prototypes.
本研究目标是通过分析三维打印（3DP）的熔融长丝制造（FFF）技术参数的参数效应，优化尼龙6（PA-6）和丙烯腈-丁二烯-苯乙烯共聚物（ABS）的表面粗糙度。本文讨论了如何通过信噪比、方差分析和建模方法，利用田口分析来优化表面粗糙度。以平均表面粗糙度（Ra）和均方根平均表面粗糙度（Rq）作为响应参数，研究了ABS参数（初始线条厚度、光栅宽度、床温、构建模式、挤出温度、打印速度和层厚）和PA-6参数（层厚、打印速度、挤出温度和构建模式）的影响。验证测试表明，Ra和Rq显著降低。优化后，制造的优化值的Ra-ABS和Rq-PA-6分别为1.75 µm和21.37 µm。对Ra-ABS、Rq-ABS、Ra-PA-6和Rq-PA-6进行田口优化，以便在进一步的研究和原型中使用它们向前迈进一步。
