Recently, 3D printing has been actively studied. A representative material in this 3D printing technology is plastic, and PLA, an eco-friendly material, is widely used. FDM is widely used as a way to output these PLA materials. However, this method lacks mechanical properties compared to injection-molded products as it is a method of stacking materials by melting. Therefore, in this study, using an FDM-type 3D printer, a tensile test was performed after printing a tensile specimen with PLA filament with the layer angle and layer density as control factors. After that, changes in tensile properties according to the layer angle and density were compared and evaluated. As a result, to improve the tensile strength, the layer density had to be considered, and to improve the elastic modulus, both the layer angle and the layer density had to be considered.
