Nowadays, the process of creating a three-dimensional solid object from a digital file or 3D printing is widely recognized. PLA and PETG filaments are commonly used to build automotive parts. This project aims to fabricate automotive interior parts which are side wiper signal, brake pedals, and gear shifter, and study the PLA and PETG parameters. For the methods, Fused Deposition Modelling will be used for 3D printing models, while the experiment will employ a tensile machine and torsion machine. This will involve using Solidworks to design the model and conduct an experiment to study the filament parameters. It is also involved to print the 3d model using a 3D printing machine. The model is expected to be 3D printed and know the filaments yield strength, torsional strength, and ductility. This study will enhance the performance and material selection for the 3D printing of automotive parts.
