Specimen were printed at raster orientation angles of 0, 45 and 90. Layer thickness of 0.2 mm was chosen to print specimens from a single layer to 35 layers. Samples were tested using an MTS Universal Testing Machine with extensometer to determine mechanical strength characteristics such as modulus of elasticity, ultimate tensile strength, maximum force and maximum elongation as the number of layers increased. Results showed that 0 raster orientation yields the highest mechanical properties compared to 45 and 90 at each individual layer. A linear relationship was found between the number of layers and the maximum force for all three orientations, in other words, maximum force required to break specimens linearly increased as the number of layers increased. The results also found the elastic modulus and maximum stress to increase as the number of layers increased up to almost 12 layers. For samples with more than 12 layers, the elastic modulus and maximum stress still increased, but at a much slower rate. These results can help software developers, mechanical designers and engineers reduce manufacturing time, material usage and cost by eliminating unnecessary layers that do not increase the ultimate stress of the material by improving material properties due to the addition of layers. In contrast to conventional subtractive manufacturing methods (removing layers of material to reach the desired shape), Additive Manufacturing (AM) is the technology of making objects directly from a Computer Aided Design (CAD) model by adding a layer of material at a time. There have been many advancements in AM technology since it was developed in 1980s, however it was not until the appearance of desktop 3D printers in the early 2000s and the emergence of the term 3D printing in the early 2010s that the technology became popular among public and tech-enthusiasts as well, making AM one of the most rapidly developing technologies in the world. The market for additive manufacturing, consisting of all AM products and services worldwide, grew at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 35.2% to $4.1 billion in The industry expanded by more than $1 billion in 2014, with 49 manufacturers producing and selling industrial-grade AM machines. The CAGR over the past three years ( ) was 33.8% [1]. Now that this technology is boldly entering space manufacturing era by introducing the first zero-g printer from Made In SPACE in 2014 [2], the future of 3D-printing looks more promising than ever before. Although the tremendous growth rate of this technology in recent years, have led to enhancements in areas such as hardware and software, yet, the standardization of the mechanical properties of the manufactured parts has remained a major concern. Various factors that play a role in changing the mechanical properties of the final product, are one of the key reasons. Figure 1 shows the significant affecting factors in 3D-printing process that affects the properties of the final product. Furthermore, commercially available printers and filaments have not reached their full potential yet and experiments are still being conducted to improve their capabilities and performance [3-5]. 1
2 Figure 1. Affecting parameters on the strength of the final product All specimens were printed on a consumer level 3dprinter, the MakerBot Replicator 2x. Custom printing profiles were used to control the slicing/printing software which allowed printing in a single specified raster orientations for the entire specimen. Single raster orientations were used to eliminate possible variability between samples with different number of layers (for instance, a 3 layer sample with a 0, a 45, and a 90 layer vs a 4 layer sample with two 0, a 45, and a 90 layer). Each specimen was printed individually at the same position on the printing bed in order to produce all specimen as similarly as possible. 204 specimens were printed and tested for this study. Four specimens were considered for each layer number. Table 1 shows the list of test samples for each orientation. Figure 2 shows the tested raster orientations and their definitions. For all specimens, one shell was used on the perimeter in order to minimize its effects on the material properties of the specimen. Moreover the inside of the specimens were printed with 100% infill at each specified raster orientation. When using 100% infill, toolpaths for overlapping filament layers could be influential on part strength. However, in this study, default settings on the Makerbot software were used and overlapping was not considered as an independent variable. The layer height for all tested specimens was 0.2 mm. For example, the thinnest sample with one layer is 0.2 mm thick while the thickest sample with 35 layers is 7 mm thick. The ABS material was extruded at 230 C with the heated bed surface at 115 C, except for one and two layer specimens which were printed with heated bed surface at 70 C. Table 2 shows the details of print parameters. All specimens were printed with the same generic brand of ABS filament from two 1-kg spools purchased together. Specimens were printed according to ASTM D638, [12]. However, after running the test for a few samples with 0 raster orientation, the geometry of the specimens, commonly referred to as dogbones, caused premature failures. This was more significant for thin specimens in 0 orientation. The specific shape is designed to yield the best result in tensile test since it tunnels the stress region to the smallest cross sectional area. However, in this particular case due to the nature of FFF Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) and Polylactic Acid (PLA) are the two most common thermoplastic polymers used in desktop 3D printing. Easy accessibility, low cost, diversity in appearance and relative reliability are some of the advantages of these popular feedstock. These materials have shown that they can be considered as mechanically functional substitutes due to their adequate mechanical properties such as tensile strength and elastic modulus [6]. However, reliable information on the correlation between the final ABS or PLA product and printing parameters is limited and often scattered throughout the literature. The effect of printing parameters such as infill density, infill pattern, raster orientation, etc. on the strength of the 3Dprinted material, both ABS and PLA, have been investigated and reported in various journals and conferences [7-10]. The present study aims to find the relationship between the number of layers, raster orientation and mechanical properties of 3D-printed material using experimental data of over 200 tested specimens. The authors hope that the result of this study will help 3Dprinting software developers, printer manufacturers, hobbyists, startups and designers, improve their products by eliminating unnecessary layers that do not increase the ultimate stress of the material by improving material properties due to the addition of layers. EXPERIMENTAL PROCEDURES Mechanical tensile testing was conducted on specimens that were 3d-printed out of Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS), which is the most popular material among public users. Each structural unit of ABS is responsible for one of its properties, it gains its heat resistance from acrylonitrile, rigidity from styrene and impact strength from Butadiene [11]. ABS is a thermoplastic polymer, a material which becomes moldable in a specific temperature and solidifies upon cooling, makes it a perfect candidate for fused deposition modeling. 2
3 method, the dogbone shape has a drawback. Raster termination near the fillet radius causes stress concentration which in turn leads to premature failure, Figure 3, [9]. As an attempt to remedy this, rectangular version of the ASTM D638 specimen were used. Figure 4 shows the final geometry of the specimen used for tensile testing. Each specimen was individually measured (thickness and width) at several locations throughout the test section and the minimum measured value was chosen. Tensile testing of the 3d-printed specimen was conducted on an MTS Insight machine with an MTS 1kN load cell, for the first eight layers and 5KN load cell for 9 layers and above. Built in LVDTs were used to measure displacement, while an MTS extensometer (Model F-24) with a gauge length of 20mm was used to measure strain for specimens with 6 layers and higher. For specimens with Table 1. Test Samples Number of layers Total thickness (mm) Number of specimens Total per orientation 68 Table 2. Print Parameters Layers 1 Layers Parameter and 2 3 to 35 Layer height (mm) Feed rate (mm/sec) Extruder temperature ( C) Bed temperature ( C) Number of shells 1 1 Infill density (%) less than 6 layers, the distance along the specimen between the grips was considered as the initial gauge length for measuring the strain. All tests were conducted at room temperature (approximately 20 C). The test procedure was carried out according to ASTM D638 Standard Test Methods for Tensile Properties of Plastics [12]. The MTS wedge grips were displaced at a rate of 5 mm/min with data (force, grip displacement and strain) collected at 100 Hz. Figure 5 shows the testing setup for tensile testing of the 3d-printed specimen. Four specimens were tested at each of the three raster orientations in this study. Figure 3.

Tensile testing setup RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Ultimate Stress Maximum Force (N) Elastic Modulus Elongation at Break (%) delamination for 45 and 90 respectively which show the influence of layer bond on the strength of the material. Microscopic inspection specifies that noticeable air gaps between the shell and raster, unlike thin specimens, seem to have insignificant effect on the failure of the material for thicker specimens, as indicated in previous studies, [11]. Microscopic views of the fracture surface also suggest that stress concentration caused by the two types of air gaps (between layers and between toolpaths) had the highest impact on specimens with 45 raster orientation and lowest on specimens with 0 raster orientation. As shown in Figure 11 (0 orientation), the air gap pattern is regular, while Figure 13 (45 orientation), indicates irregularity in such a way that compromises the structural integrity of the sample. This interesting finding will be studied further in future work. The relationship between the ultimate stress of the specimens and layer number is shown in Figure 6. Layer number seems to have the least effect on the ultimate stress of specimens in 0 raster orientation in contrast with 45 and 90 since it can mostly be attributed to individual raster strength rather than layer strength. Specimens began to experience a constant ultimate stress after passing almost 12 layers, regardless of their raster orientation. The same observation can be made in case of the elastic modulus. Characterization of this particular behavior can be the basis of future work. As the number of layers increased, the required fracture force also increased linearly, as indicated by Four specimens were tested for each layer number at each orientation. The averaged results for each test at each orientation are shown in Tables 3, 4 and 5. Representative curves for each orientation are presented in Figures 6 to 9. ABS parts in 0 raster orientation have previously been reported to have tensile strength varying from 10 to 18 MPa and Elastic Moduli from 1000 to 1700 MPa for various parameters [6]. According to the results of this study it is evident that the specimens with 0 raster orientation are the strongest of the three orientations. On the other hand, specimens with 90 raster orientation are the weakest in terms of mechanical properties. This can be explained by considering raster delamination and orientation during tension. Raster delamination had the least impact on specimens strength in 0 raster orientation since each raster was pulled along its longitudinal axis, causing tensile failure of individual fiber, while in specimens with 90 raster orientation force was exerted perpendicular to raster longitudinal axis resulting in highest impact on the final tensile strength of the material. In this case, layer adhesion along with the shell number in specimens with 90 raster orientation significantly affect the tensile strength since loads were taken only by the fusion bonding between raster and layers. Microscopic inspection of the fracture surface at all three orientations for 35 layer samples also support this hypothesis. As indicated in figure 10, the fracture cross section of a specimen at 0 raster orientation shows the least correlation with layer adhesion while Figures 12, 13 and 14 indicate Table 3. 0 raster orientation test results 4

For instance, the required force to break a specimen with 30 layers is three times the required force to break a specimen with 10 layers. The maximum elongation at break had very inconsistent results as is shown in Figured 7. On average, the 0 orientation samples had the longest elongation. The 45 and 90 orientation samples had relatively lower elongations than the 0, but neither was conclusively different from the other. 6

Fracture surface of a 35 layer specimen at 0 raster orientation (50x) Figure 13. Fracture surface of a 35 layer specimen at 45 raster orientation (50x) changes at 12 layers. Another noteworthy result to be studied in the future is determining quantitative values for the air gaps and their relationship with the stress concentration factor that develops due to these gaps. Furthermore, alternating orientations and different layer thicknesses should be tested to conclude whether the results from this study can be applied to the raster orientations generally used to define 3d printing toolpaths. CONCLUSION AND FUTURE WORK The relationship between layer number, raster orientation and mechanical properties of ABS printed specimens using a commercially available 3D-printer, Makerbot Replicator 2X, was investigated. Tensile testing of 204 specimens shown that 0 raster orientation yields the highest strength at each layer number compared to 90 and 45 raster orientations. It is also concluded that specimens experienced lower increase rate of maximum stress after 12 layers regardless of their raster orientation. The same conclusion is also true for elastic modulus of specimens with 12 layers and higher. Future work will focus on determining the reasons why the behavior of the samples ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The authors would like to thank the Materials Evaluation and Testing Lab (METLAB) and the Mechanical 7
