Optimization of Stroke Rehabilitation Hand Component of 3D Printing With Taguchi Method Approach

Abstract

3D Printing commonly is known as additive manufacturing. It works by adding layer by layer resulting in a three dimensional shape. Using color change filament materials are safe to use for medical purposes. The parameters used in this study are layer height, print speed and print temperature. The most percentage of contributions is affected in the taguchi experiment of dimensional accuracy namely; layer height (51.196%), and Brinell Hardness Number namely; print speed (61,097%). The optimal parameters resulting of the taguchi experiment's dimensional accuracy are layer height (0,10 mm), print speed (40 mm/s) and print temperature (195C). The optimal parameters resulting of Brinell Hardness Number are layer height (0,10 mm), print speed (20 mm/s) and print temperature (205C).
