ABSTRACT

The main objective of this work is evaluation of 3D printed electrical component using PLA Filament as feed stock, characterization of the 3D printed parts to determine physical and mechanical properties of the printed components and evaluation of the printed components to ascertain its suitability in electrical application. The printed parts were characterized and properties desirable for 3D printing were determined which included differential scanning calorimetry, density, flexural strength, tensile strength and hardness. There was decrease in the hardness, increase in the tensile, flexural strength and the density of the material remained unchanged. Also, Differential scanning calorimetry graph oç the sample material showed that the melting point of the printed plastics increased. This will solve; plastic waste management and production of locally manufactured 3D printing feedstock. This innovation is particularly useful to manufacturing firms and will reduce spare parts importation. Scraping of machines/equipment due to non-availability of parts will also reduce considerably.
