The main side effects when applying this method is the low breaking strength and loss of part details on the sharp edges. This paper presents a set of contributions on the relationship between surface quality and the level of detail of parts subjected to acetone steam treatment. In order to analyze the influence of the treatment on the details of the parts, a reverse engineering method was used in which a polyarticular arm FARO Edge 7.5 was used to scan the parts and reconstruct them.

For the resulted specimens the tensile properties are determined according to ASTM D638. The most advantageous results are obtained for the layer thickness of 0.15 mm, with the tensile strength of 58 MPa. Based on the stress-strain curves which are presented in this paper, it also can be assumed that the material is brittle. The results of the mechanical properties are very similar for each group of specimens and it can be assumed that the mechanical properties are homogenous due to the material quality and the machine performances. For all the specimens the rupture location is almost in the same area. Due to the difficulty of carbon fiber filament printing, the manufacturing defectives which appear during the manufacturing process are detected, the most common manufacturing defectives being the material gaps from each specimen, which are identified with microstructural analysis.
