Esta investigación indaga el efecto de la estrategia de impresión y de la atmósfera de despolimerizado térmico en la microestructura y las propiedades mecánicas de muestras de acero M2 obtenido mediante fabricación con filamento fundido. Se realizó un análisis comparativo entre patrones de impresión concéntricos y lineales. Las muestras impresas se sometieron a diferentes velocidades de despolimerizado térmico en atmósferas de nitrógeno y vacío para evaluar sus efectos sobre las propiedades mecánicas, como la microdureza y la resistencia a la ruptura transversal (TRS). La evaluación de los resultados mostró una correlación continua entre la microestructura y las propiedades mecánicas, confirmada mediante metalografía y pruebas estadísticas ANOVA. El estudio concluyó que una atmósfera de nitrógeno mejora la densificación y la resistencia mecánica al retener un mayor contenido de carbono; mientras que una atmósfera de vacío aumenta la porosidad y reduce la resistencia. Estos hallazgos ofrecen información valiosa para optimizar los procesos de sinterización para mejorar las propiedades de los materiales.
This research investigates the effects of printing strategies and thermal debinding atmosphere on the microstructure and mechanical properties of M2 tool steel samples obtained by Fused Filament Fabrication. A comparative analysis was conducted between concentric and linear printing patterns. Printed samples were subjected to different thermal debinding heating rates in nitrogen and vacuum atmospheres to evaluate their effects on mechanical properties, such as microhardness and Transverse Rupture Strength (TRS). The assessment of the results showed a consistent correlation between microstructure and mechanical properties, confirmed by metallography and ANOVA statistical test studies. The study concluded that a nitrogen atmosphere enhances densification and strength by retaining higher carbon content, whereas a vacuum atmosphere leads to increased porosity and reduced strength. Finally, these findings offer valuable insights for optimizing sintering processes to improve material properties.
