Abstract Scope |
The Low-Cost Metal Material Extrusion (LCMMEX) process has gained attention in recent years to produce metallic parts with complex designs. High Iron concentration composite materials have been extensively researched to improve their properties and functionality for advanced manufacturing applications. This study aims to develop knowledge blocks for producing Composite parts with high iron percentages and analyze their mechanical, magnetic, and thermal properties and their sintering behavior based on print parameters. A rectangular sample is manufactured using the Material Extrusion (MEX) process by varying layer height, infill density, and print speed. The results show that sintering significantly affects the change in surface roughness, weight, and dimensional accuracy of the printed parts. Furthermore, an increase in the infill percentage leads to a significant increase in magnetic flux. This research provides insights into the influence of print parameters and sintering on the properties of High-Iron filled composite parts, ideal for high-density applications. |
