Analysis of Stress Relaxation During Compression of 3D-Printed Samples Using Mex Technology and the Taguchi Method

Open Access
|Dec 2025

Abstract

The study investigated the impact of various Additive Manufacturing parameters in Material Extrusion technology on stress relaxation during compression using a biocompatible filament. The Taguchi method was applied for the analysis. The examined parameters included layer height, shell count (number of contours), nozzle temperature, print orientation, and overlap. The results enabled the assessment of how printing parameters influence elastic moduli and dynamic viscosity coefficients. It was determined that layer height and shell count have the most significant effect on the percentage decrease in stress over time.
