Abstract

The article deals with the influence of the selected material on the course of 3D printing with specific TPMS structures. Thanks to this, it was possible to find out whether the quality would be the same or different in both cases when printing the same structures from different materials. The basis of this research was the creation of complex samples with the help of CAD software, which will contain 3 different TPMS (Triple Periodic Minimal Surface) structures - Gyroid, Primitive, Diamond. These structures replaced the full-volume material in the 20 x 20 x 20 mm sample. The aim of the research was to find out whether, under the same input conditions, it is possible to create the same structure in the same quality, or whether the change in material will also affect the quality of the sample.

Creo Parametric 9.0 software was used to create the samples. Subsequently, the created samples were stored in STL format (Stereolithography) and printed on the MarketBot Method X 3D printer. The selection of two different materials aimed to show the difference in the behavior of these two selected materials on the same printer under the same conditions (temperature, nozzle size, etc.).
