Fused deposition modelling (FDM) is currently one of the most widely used 3D printing technologies, but the products’ mechanical strength is hardly comparable to those manufactured by traditional machining methods. With the expansion and development of its application, the mechanical properties of FDM 3D printing products have to be improved. In this project, the novel method that will utilize vibration to improve the quality of FDM 3D printing products is provided. Sheet samples and the 3D printing process are the research objects. Investigations to reveal the mechanism of utilizing vibration to improve the products’ mechanical properties are carried out, as well as the corresponding theoretical analysis and experimental tests. Details include: confirming the method of introducing vibration into the FDM 3D printer system, characterizing the material mechanical properties and dynamic properties of the sheet samples, and modelling the dynamics of the molten material inside the printing nozzle and of the bonding process of extrusive material wires. In this research, the mechanism of using vibration to improve the mechanical properties of FDM 3D printing products will be revealed from the perspective of material mechanics and dynamics. The methodology system of experimental test and theoretical analysis that meet the needs of the design of improving the product’s quality is established. This research will ultimately provide the service to achieve the improvement of FDM 3D printing products’ quality, and the technical support for the popularization and application of vibration in the field of 3D printing.
