PARAMETRIC STUDY OF EFFECT OF SOLID FREEFORM FABRICATION PROCESS PARAMETERS ON RESPONSE PARAMETERS: A REVIEW

Abstract

Solid Freeform Fabrication (SFF) is one of the most popular additive manufacturing technologies for various engineering applications. Now a days SFF is rapidly developed and widely used additive manufacturing technique. SFF is low cost and easy to used fused filament fabrication method. In this method thermoplastic materials used to build the object which is extracted from the nozzle orifice according to CAD model layer by layer manner. The purpose of this study to investigate the effect of various process parameters of SFF on response parameters by reviewing various research work done by the researchers in this field. Also this paper gives basic information about SFF process and how the individual output parameters affected by various input parameters In this paper, an extensive review is carried out for different methods used to optimize the input process parameters to get desired output results. This paper also covers the numerous techniques available for optimization of surface quality. There are several statically optimization techniques and microscopic observations are considered.
