Estimation of the Adhesion Interface Performance in Aluminum-PLA Joints by Thermographic Monitoring of the Material Extrusion Process

Using additive manufacturing to generate a polymer–metal structure offers the potential to achieve a complex customized polymer structure joined to a metal base of high stiffness and strength. A tool to evaluate the generated interface during the process is of fundamental interest, as the sequential...
