Abstract
Additive manufacturing of carbon black filled elastomers provides unique opportunities for polymers. The process is based on Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF). The system explained in this paper, consists of a commercially available 3D-printer for processing thermoplastic filaments and has been expanded to implement a twin-screw extruder for simultaneous processing of rubber compounds. Furthermore, the process chain beginning with the construction file and ending with the vulcanized elastomer is described. The results of preliminary investigations of the extrusion process, with the twin screw extruder are presented. It can be seen that the generated measurement setup offers promising possibilities for the additive manufacturing of carbon black filled elastomer parts.
