Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) 3D printing creates components by layering extruded material. Printer parameters such as layer height and infill density can greatly impact the mechanical properties and quality of the printed parts. One critical factor to be considered in analysis is the anisotropy nature of printed components, considering all cross-sectional area (CSA) profiles for less than 100% infill density. This paper investigates the effect of the anisotropy nature of 3D printed CSA has on stress calculations and hence mechanical properties of the specimen through Design of Experiment (DOE). Analysis of variance (ANOVA) is utilised to evaluate the results. Printed specimens were tensile tested as per ASTM D638-14. Raw data was analysed using various CSA profiles, taking changes in infill density and layer height into account. Fixed parameter such as shell count, top and bottom layers, nozzle diameter, Hexagonal pattern were defined. Specimens Ultimate Tensile Strength (UTS) value

New Yorker Electronics Now Supplying Advanced Aluminum Casting Alloys from Amfas International PR.com
2020-12-31
Northvale, NJ, December 31, 2020 (PR.com) With their recent distributor rep agreement with Amfas International, New Yorker Electronics is now a major provider of high-tech Advanced Aluminum Casting Alloys. Amfas, an expert supplier of custom fabricated metal and molded plastic components, manufactures two types of aluminum casting alloys for New Yorker Electronics customers: HighSAL (for High Strength) and HighTAL (for High Thermal Conduction).
HighSAL is ideal for applications where tensile strength is a priority. This cast alloy has an Ultimate Tensile Strength which surpasses alloy 6061-T6. Its maximum UTS is 360 to 380 MPa with a Yield Tensile Strength (YTS) of 300 to 320 MPa and an elongation of greater than 1.5-percent and a Brinell hardness number between 130 and 150. The HighSAL cast alloy is widely used for mobile phones, tablet PCs, wearable device
