Module 3 - Short Fiber Reinforced Composite 3D Printing

This video workshop, published by Motlow State Community College, is part of an eight-video series from the SMARTT Project. The video provides two presentations on additive manufacturing from PhD candidates at Tennessee Technological University. The first presentation is led by Ankit Gupta. Gupta demonstrates how professionals could make short carbon fiber reinforced filaments using Filabot extruders. Gupta provides an introduction to Fiber Reinforced Additive Manufacturing (FRAM) and information on experiments. The second presentation is led by Seymur Hasanov. Hasanov discusses multi-material printing technology, specifically Z-Morph printers, and considers their materials, methods, and interface strength. Dr. Ismail Fidan introduces and concludes the video. The video recording runs 33:33 minutes in length.
