Abstract - In this research work, we have studied about
improving the strength of the Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) filament of the 3D printer. We know that at the default setting of the 3D printer, the strength of the all models which are created by the 3d printer is almost same when we are using the Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS). But in this research work, we are numerical analyze the models which will be created by using the Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene filament in the 3D printer at the different temperature such as 225 °C, 230 °C, 235 °C, 240 °C, 245 °C, 250 °C, 255 °C, and 260 °C, and using the three different pattern to analyze these models such as the rectangular, triangular, and hexagonal pattern at layer of the each models. The area Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) filament is kept constant which are 40 mm2. These all models which will be prepared by the 3D printer, we will check strength of the all models at different temperature such as 225 °C, 230 °C, 235 °C, 240 °C, 245 °C, 250 °C, 255 °C, and 260 °C and using three different pattern of the layer such as rectangular, triangular, and hexagonal pattern by using the Universal Testing Machine (UTM). We will check the strength of the all these models on the basis if the selected parameter such as the ultimate tensile strength, peak load, peak stress, break load, break stress, and tensile strength.
lengthy history using ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) [1]. One of the earliest plastics to be utilised with commercial 3D printers was this substance. Thanks to its inexpensive cost and strong mechanical qualities, ABS is still a highly well-liked material today, many years after its invention. ABS is renowned for its durability and resilience to impacts, making it possible to print strong parts that can withstand increased use and wear [2]. The material can sustain substantially greater temperatures before it starts to distort because to ABS's higher glass transition temperature. Because of this, ABS is a fantastic material for outdoor or hot-weather applications (Simplify3D ABS overview [2]). In order to increase tensile strength, the work reported in this study investigated the impact of using various ABS printing parameters, such as printing temperature and infill density. A student initiative called Silesian Greenpower aims to create an electric race vehicle from scratch [3]. New structures, parts, and solutions are being implemented in the vehicle based on the analysis results. Wheel fairings and mirror housings, for example, are some of the Silesian Greenpower vehicles' 3D-printed components. This approach enables customization of an element's production and form. The purpose of the study is to improve ABS 3D printing technology in order to produce the driver's seat for an electric car faster and lighter [4].
Key Words: ABS filament, 3D printer, tensile strength, temperature, rectangular, triangular, Hexagonal Pattern.
1.1.3D Printer Another term that is occasionally used to describe 3D printing technology is "rapid prototyping." This goes all the way back to the beginning of 3D printing, when the technology first started to take off. Rapid prototyping technologies were used to describe 3D printing techniques when they were originally developed in the 1980s since they could only be used to create prototypes, not finished products [5].
1.INTRODUCTION The technology of additive manufacturing is very young; it was created in the 1980s and has rapidly advanced over the past 20 years. A growing number of manufacturing, educational, and domestic contexts are embracing and using additive manufacturing technology, sometimes known as 3D printing [1]. substance extrusion The most popular piece of 3DP equipment uses a technique in which a polymeric filament is extruded and deposited layer by layer until a 3D object is formed. This process is comparable to the patented fused deposition modelling (FDM) technology. However, due to the fact that the mechanical strength of FDM printed items is often lower than that of injection moulded products due to their weak areas between the layers, there are only a few applications for this type of 3D printing. The 3D printing industry has a

In recent years, various manufacturing technologies (such CNC machining) have grown more affordable and available for prototype, while 3D printing has developed into an ideal option for many different types of production components. So, even while some still use the term "rapid prototyping" to describe 3D printing, it is now used to describe all kinds of extremely quick prototyping [6].
