Overview

Experimental characterization revealed that surface roughness significantly affects fatigue life in fused filament fabrication polymers, suggesting improved designs.

Key Points

  • Fatigue life increased by 2.5–4.2 times with optimal infill configurations and surface treatments, enhancing performance.
  • The model achieved over 92% compliance for fatigue predictions in fused filament fabrication polymers under testing conditions.
  • Numerical modeling and quasi-static testing combined to evaluate the effects of material configuration on fatigue performance.
  • Improved surface finishing led to a notable 25%–40% increase in fatigue life, emphasizing its role in design processes.
