Abstract:
Additive manufacturing (AM) has revolutionized the fabrication of complex geometries, but its precision is significantly influenced by process parameters. This study examines the impact of nozzle diameter variation on the mechanical properties, surface roughness, and dimensional accuracy of AM-produced parts. Experiments were conducted using fused deposition modeling (FDM) and stereolithography (SLA) techniques with varying nozzle diameters. Results show that nozzle diameter significantly affects layer thickness, build time, and part quality. Specifically, smaller nozzle diameters yield improved surface finish and dimensional accuracy but compromise build speed. Conversely, larger nozzle diameters increase build speed but deteriorate part quality. The findings provide valuable insights into optimizing nozzle diameter selection for specific AM applications, enhancing part performance, and informing process parameter development.
