Resumen

Implementation of material extrusion in the industry must overcome several issues regarding the quality inherent in the printing process. The increasing use of additive manufacturing has contributed to the development of new materials and market growth. Fortunately, the increasing availability of industrial computed tomography equipment (CT) provides researchers with a valuable resource to improve material extrusion technology. The objective of this chapter is to show students how to take advantage of computed tomography technology to inspect material extruded parts. In particular, the goal is to analyze tensile testing specimens and compare the results with the ones expected due to the configuration of the printing/process.
