An Approach for the Accelerated Heat Aging of Test Specimens Produced Using 3D Additive Materials

Year: 2025

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: In this work, an approach has been developed for the accelerated aging of test specimens with an electrical furnace for tensile strength and hardness testing, manufactured using a 3D Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) printer. A detailed study of the climatic conditions and temperature amplitudes of the city of Sofia, Bulgaria, over a period of one calendar year was conducted. The ASTM D3045 standard was used, and numerical expressions were compiled, which guided the authors in determining the period and temperature of heating. Eight types of FDM 3D printing materials with different properties and characteristics were used in this study.
