ASTM WK82320
New Test Method for Additive Manufacturing -- Feedstock Materials -- Tensile Testing Method for Filaments used in Material Extrusion
1. Scope
The test method covers the determination of the tensile properties, specifically tensile strength and elongation to failure, of thermoplastic based filaments used in the material extrusion based additive manufacturing processes.Keywords
Fusion depositionRationale
Material extrusion based AM processes have been widely used. However, no standard is available for determining the tensile properties of the filaments used in those AM processes.
