Abstract
A fused deposition modeling method was used in this research to investigate the possibility of improving the mechanical properties of poly(lactic acid) by changing the thermal conditions of the printing process. Sample models were prepared while varying a wide range of printing parameters, including bed temperature, melt temperature, and raster angle. Certain samples were also thermally treated by annealing. The prepared materials were subjected to a detailed thermomechanical analysis (differential scanning calorimetry, dynamic mechanical analysis, heat deflection temperature (HDT)), which allowed the formulation of several conclusions. For all prepared samples, the key changes in mechanical properties are related to the content of the poly(lactic acid) crystalline phase, which led to superior properties in annealed samples. The results also indicate the highly beneficial effect of increased bed temperature, where the best results were obtained for the samples printed at 105 °C. Compared to the reference samples printed at a bed temperature of 60 °C, these samples showed the impact strength increased by 80% (from 35 to 63 J/m), HDT increased by 20 °C (from 55 to 75 °C), and also a significant increase in strength and modulus. Scanning electron microscopy observations confirmed the increased level of diffusion between the individual layers of the printed filament.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
