Özet
The purpose of this study is to investigate the tribological performance of high-temperature-resistant polymer components fabricated using stereolithography (SLA), a prominent additive manufacturing technique. Specifically, it aims to evaluate the effects of different build orientations (0°, 30°, 90°), lubrication conditions (dry, machine oil and palm oil as a bio-lubricant) and applied loads (5 N and 10 N) on the wear and friction behavior of HT31 resin parts. By analyzing wear mechanisms through mass loss measurements and scanning electron microscope (SEM) imaging, the study seeks to provide insights into the feasibility of using SLA-produced polymers in functional applications and to explore sustainable lubrication alternatives.
