The study of effected for orientation setup of workpiece from rapid prototyping process

Abstract

This research is the study for effected of orientation setup workpiece from Rapid Prototyping process. The objective of this study has to minimize average tolerances of specimen size and roundness of cylindrical specimen. Specimens were studied with orientation direction define 3 axis (X, Y, Z) and created by rapid prototyping Machine with FDM Technology. The Measuring average tolerance of specimen size and roundness of cylindrical specimen used the Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM). The Result showed that test specimens were formed along the X axis having lowest of average tolerances. The increasing average tolerances of diameter depend on the increasing diameter size. The roundness value of cylindrical surface forming, the X axis was the most circular cylinder. The roundness value of cylindrical was depend on the increasing of diameter size. It shows that when the workpiece has a larger diameter. The workpiece would be circular cylinder is decrease
