Abstract

Three-dimensional printers (3DP), which are often heard with additive manufacturing, are widely used in part production. Sensitive and custom-made products in different designs can be produced more easily and quickly, but waste specimen formed after the failed three-dimensional (3D) prints cause waste and environmental pollution from the expensive filament material. It is thought that such problems can be prevented by minimizing the waste when the scrap materials generated as a result of each production are recovered. This study investigated the benefits of recycling all possible waste filament specimens, including the supports removed from the part after the defective products or supported production, by granulating and reusing in the production of new parts in the next 3D production process. Mechanical differences between the 3D specimens produced with virgin filaments to be printed with recycled filaments are investigated and it has been determined that most of the countries cause environmental pollution due to the waste of materials including additive manufacturing and 3DP processes. The use of the filament material, which takes a long time to procure from abroad and is mainly procured externally, will be increased from one time to twice or thrice, thus facilitating the availability and preventing environmental pollution.
