摘要

This study investigates the influence of key 3D printing parameters, specifically layer height and printing speed, on the mechanical properties of PLA/Copper composite materials used for lightweight electric vehicle dashboards. By evaluating the tensile, flexural, compression, and impact properties, this research aims to identify optimal printing conditions that enhance the performance of FFF-printed PLA/Copper parts for automotive applications. Two PLA/Copper composite brands, Gizmodorks and Colorfabb, with varying copper content, were analyzed to understand how these parameters affect mechanical strength, stiffness, and resilience. This study offers valuable insights into optimizing FFF printing settings to achieve desired mechanical properties for sustainable and high-performance automotive components.
