Material Flexibility and Weight Test
thingiverse
For a school science project, I wanted to test different 3D printing plastics. So I designed these test pieces. Slice them several times for different plastics. I used PLA, ABS and PETG. Simply clamp the flex test piece to a table and add weight. Hang the weight test from a secure place and add weight. Will be adding final research paper and pictures as they come. Thanks! :) Edit: 1/19/17: I realized that the weight test was wayyy to thick to snap under any realistic test weight, so I redesigned it to be much thinner. Completed tests, will be adding graphs Print Settings Printer: Anet A8 Rafts: Doesn't Matter Supports: Doesn't Matter Resolution: Lowish Quality is fine 0.15-0.2 Infill: I used 15% for the flex test and 100% in the weight test Notes: Use Support for the weight test. Designed in Autodesk 123D. Post-Printing Simply peel of any support material and use for tests. Explained above. ^^
