Abstract
Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) is indeed one of the most commonly used methods of additive manufacturing, particularly for printing polymers and fiber-reinforced polymer composites. When compared to more conventional production meth ods like injection molding, the key benefits of FDM include producing components with intricate shapes, minimal material wastage, shorter production times, and lower costs because no tooling is needed. However, the strength and surface quality of the product produced using this technique are lower, that can be improved by selecting the optimized design variable and applying heat treatment depending on how the product will be used in an industry. This review paper provides an overview of the effect of different process parameters on mechanical properties, print time, and surface characteristics of the parts made of polymers and fiber-reinforced polymer composites in addition to the challenges encountered during the printing of composites. It also discusses the new material’s development, such as natural fiber-reinforced polymer composites, the impact of heat treatment, and the void formation influence on the mechanical properties, build time, dimensional accuracy, and surface finish of 3D-printed parts.
