Abstract
Additive manufacturing circumscribes numerous technologies that allow for the construction of three-dimensional parts by superimposing layers of material. These technologies have undergone greater development in recent years. In this work, using 3D additive printing technology, the samples are prepared using biodegradable wood-PLA composite by varying the layer height (0.08 mm, 0.16 mm, and 0.24 mm), infill (30%, 60%, and 90%) and three different patterns such as layer, triangle, and hexagon. Using universal testing machines tensile properties, energy absorption, and toughness of samples are evaluated as per ASTM standards. The results show that better values are achieved with increase in the infill percentage and layer pattern provides better strength and stiffness. A statistical linear regression model was successfully developed to predict the mechanical properties with an accuracy of 96% predicted in layer pattern when compared to other. Linear regression method helps to find the relationships between two sub-properties of mechanical property of different types of materials and helps to predict the properties of unknown materials.
