熔融沉积建模（FDM）是最流行的增材制造技术之一，用于各种工程应用。FDM工艺在20世纪90年代初由美国Stratasys公司引入商业化。FDM加工零件的质量主要取决于工艺变量的选择。因此，识别对FDM加工零件质量有显著影响的FDM工艺参数是很重要的。近年来，研究人员利用各种实验设计技术和概念探索了许多改善机械性能和零件质量的方法。本文旨在回顾迄今为止在确定和优化FDM工艺参数方面所进行的研究。研究了几种用于确定最佳工艺参数的实验统计设计和优化技术。展望了未来FDM在这一领域的研究趋势。
Fused deposition modeling (FDM) is one of the most popular additive manufacturing technologies for various engineering applications. FDM process has been introduced commercially in early 1990s by Stratasys Inc., USA. The quality of FDM processed parts mainly depends on careful selection of process variables. Thus, identification of the FDM process parameters that significantly affect the quality of FDM processed parts is important. In recent years, researchers have explored a number of ways to improve the mechanical properties and part quality using various experimental design techniques and concepts. This article aims to review the research carried out so far in determining and optimizing the process parameters of the FDM process. Several statistical designs of experiments and optimization techniques used for the determination of optimum process parameters have been examined. The trends for future FDM research in this area are described.
