The Effect of Extrusion Machine Againt Consistency Filaments Products 3D Printing

Abstract

The need for filaments is currently increasing but the prices offered in the market are very expensive. This research develops a new extruder machine with HDPE material. The high quality filaments are characterized by high durability and constant diameter. The variables used in this research are temperature, screw speed, towing speed and blower. Based on ANOVA processing using Minitab it is known that all variables have no effect on the uniformity of diameter and ovality response. Based on the results of this research that the bottle cap tensile strength (HDPE) has a value of 15.7 so that it is still far below the PLA tensile strength.
