The Impact of Slicing Softwares on the Mechanical Properties of 3D Printed Parts

“Slicing tool” or “Slicing Software” computes the
intersection curves of models and slicing planes. They improve the
quality of the model being printed when given in the form of STL
file. Upon analyzing a specimen that has been printed using two
different slicing tools, there was a drastic variation on account of
the mechanical properties of the specimen. The ultimate tensile
strength and the surface roughness of the material vary from one
tool to another. This paper reports an investigation and analysis of
the variation in the ultimate tensile strength and the surface
roughness of the specimen, given that the 3D printer and the
model being printed is the same, with a variation of usage of
slicing software. This analysis includes ReplicatorG, Flashprint as
the two different slicing tools that are used for slicing of the model.
The variation in the ultimate tensile strength and the surface
roughness are measured and represented statistically through
graphs. An appropriate decisive conclusion was drawn on the
basis of the observations and analysis of the experiment on
relevance to the behavior and mechanical properties of the
specimen.
