3D Printing Object Using Recycled Disposable Masks Filament

3D printing filament is the main asset in the development and manufacture of 3D objects. However, not all filament materials can be made easily. The difficulty level of 3D printing lies in the materials that are not commonly used. ABS and PLA are the easiest filaments to use, currently we are researching 3D printing filaments made from recycled disposable mask where machine specs are needed to enable 3D object fabrication. Recycled Disposable masks becomes an important research object when mask waste is widely used during the Covid-19 pandemic and currently it can be an alternative when these materials can be recycled into 3D printing filament. In this research also requires techniques to analyze typical filament materials that are adjusted for ambient temperature, filament thickness, nozzle temperature, and print bed temperature. In the design process, it is also necessary to set printing quality standards on the software used, such as the configuration of the raft printing support, the enable of the retraction. This study also analyzes the results of different objects for each filament diameter, filaments smaller than 1.75 mm will have a high vacancy rate on the object, while filament diameters with sizes larger than 1.75 mm will have high vacancy rates on the object. difficulties when entering the filament into the head print on 3D printing machine.
