The
development in additive manufacturing technology facilitates the production of
the final product for varied applications; such as mechatronics, robotics,
aerospace and biomedical devices. The soft mechanical property is one of the
desired parameters for these applications. The final product can be easily
manufactured through the additive manufacturing process compared to the
conventional casting technique. In this study, the prerequisite for material
selection and manufacturing parameters in additive manufacturing investigated for
the soft products. Taking into consideration the mechanical properties such as
tensile strength, hardness and modulus of elasticity, it has been determined
that polymeric materials should be selected according to the application
requirements to be used. Manufacturing parameters were determined with a
flexible polymeric filament using fused deposition modeling (FDM) technique.

Katmanlı
imalat teknolojisindeki gelişmeler mekatronik, robotik, havacılık ve
biyomedikal ürünler gibi birçok farklı uygulamanın üretim yapılmasına olanak
sağlamaktadır. Bu uygulamalardaki istenen parametrelerden biri de esnek mekanik
özelliklere sahip olunmasıdır. Geleneksel döküm teknolojisi kullanılarak
yapılan üretimle karşılaştırıldığında katmanlı imalat tekniği birçok açıdan
daha kolay son ürüne erişilebilen bir tekniktir. Bu çalışmada, esnek ürün elde
edilmesi için katmanlı imalat teknolojisinde malzeme seçimi ve imalat parametreleri
ile ilgili gerekli ön şartlar araştırılmıştır.
