Experimental comparison of recycled and non-recycled filament of ABS plastic
Grygar, Filip ; Krčma, Martin (referee) ; Koutecký, Tomáš (advisor)
Plastic waste which arises from 3D print could be recycled. One of the most used materials is ABS with which this degree work deals. During recycling of ABS mechanical qualities rapidly deteriorate which is compensated by adding non-recycled ABS. This degree work dealt with a ratio of 25% of recycled to 75% of non-recycled material which is a ratio not have been tested so far, and most likely represents a boundary ratio when recycling still makes sense. Unfortunately, it was not possible to extrude from a recycled material a filament of high-quality enough which could be used for problem-free print. It was influenced by non-homogeneity of crushed components and the construction of an extruder. For improving the characteristics a more complex extruder would be needed, with a bigger screw diameter or with two screws, and also a cooling system with more zones. Professional grinders with screens would have to be used for improving homogeneity of the material. The melt flow index of the liquid alloy and the testing of the filament itself showed that this way is practicable and such a recycling is realistic.

Experimental comparison of filament produced from recycled and regular PET
Tomčová, Renata ; Vaverka, Ondřej (referee) ; Koutecký, Tomáš (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with the experimental comparison of filament made from recycled and common PET. Filament was made from commercial granulate of PET, PET-G and from recycled PET bottles. Sample pieces were printed using FDM technology from these filaments and then the sample pieces were tested using a tensile test. The sample pieces made from recycled PET filament had one third worse tensile strength than the sample pieces made from common PET and PET-G filaments. Thanks to this bachelor thesis it is possible to decide, if it is worthy producing filament from recycled PET bottles even at the cost of reducing the mechanical properties of final products.

Creating a 3D model and its realization on a 3D printer
LIŠKOVÁ, Markéta
The aim of this bachelor work is the creation of a 3D model and its realization. As the product of the 3D printing demonstration is chosen a bike bag for money and keys, which is placed under a seat on a seatpost. The theoretical part of the bachelor work presents a brief history about 3D printing, 3D printing technologies, editors for creating models and basic materials. The model is designed in an online editor TinkerCad. The printing is done by Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) technology on the Original Prusa i3 MK3 printer. A part of the work is a simple handbook, which describes on a trolley coin with the JCU logo, how to create your own model and how to print it on the FDM printer.

The thermal conductivity of non-standard materials for HVAC
Běťák, Karel ; Rubinová, Olga (referee) ; Uher, Pavel (advisor)
The thesis is focused on the determination of the thermal conductivity coefficient on the group of thermoplastics used for 3D printing (PLA, ABS, PETG). The thesis describes the materials used for 3D printing and the design of air conditioning for the grocery store. A stationary method was used for the solution. The heat flux passing through the sample was measured and the thermal conductivity coefficient was calculated. By the chosen method, we determined the coefficient is = 0,11-0,13 W/(m·K). Comparison with the available results of other methods and authors has shown that the resulting coefficient is lower. Based on the data, it is possible to compare the thermal properties of 3D printing materials.

Remote control of 3D printer
Kajzr, Miroslav ; Jaššo, Kamil (referee) ; Vyroubal, Petr (advisor)
The essence of this work is to summarize the knowledge about 3D printing, especially with FDM technologies. Create an overview of used FDM printing materials, identify their advantages and disadvantages, technical parameters and usability. Another purpose of the thesis is to examine the print quality and its problems and specify types of surface finishes for selected materials. The content also includes remote control and monitoring of the 3D print process using the Raspberry Pi microcomputer and the print server named Octoprint.

Špringer, Radek ; Hošek, Jiří (referee) ; Krajsa, Ondřej (advisor)
The goal of this thesis is to design a 3D printer type delta. To describe 3D printing technologies used by this printer, basic printer features and commercially available material used at the print and its comparison. To define all hardware components, which are necessary for construction of the 3D printer type delta. To create a proposal and construct an expansion board to which all hardware components of the printer will be connected. To optimize the print space heating and cooling of the printout. To extend the 3D printer with a Web server, which will ensure the network printing possibility.

Multi-filament yarns testing for textile-reinforced concrete
Kaděrová, Jana ; Seitl,, Stanislav (referee) ; Vořechovský, Miroslav (advisor)
The scope of the presented master thesis was the experimental study of multi-filament yarns made of AR-glass and used for textile-reinforced concrete. The behavior under the tensile loading was investigated by laboratory tests. A high number of yarn specimens (over 300) of six different lengths (from 1 cm to 74 cm) was tested to obtain statistically significant data which were subsequently corrected and statistically processed. The numerical model of the multi-filament bundle was studied and applied for prediction of the yarn performance and for later results interpretation. The model of n parallel filaments describes the behavior of a bundle with varying parameters representing different sources of disorder of the response and provides the qualitative information about the influence of their randomization on the overall bundle response. The aim of the carried experiment was to validate the model presumptions and to identify the model parameters to fit the real load-displacement curves. Unfortunately, due to unsuccessful correction of measured displacements devalued by additional non-linear contribution of the unstiff experiment device the load-displacement diagrams were not applicable to model parameters identification. The statistical evaluation was carried only for the maximal load values and the effect of the specimen size (length) on its strength was demonstrated. The size effect curve did not exclude the existence of spatial correlation of material mechanical properties modifying the classical statistical Weibull theory.

Technical aspects of the use of 3D printing in the education at elementary school
CVRČEK, Tomáš
This thesis in the beginning deals with the history of 3D printing and its development. For better understanding the nature of 3D printing are the significant technologies that includes. Professional part includes work with the printer MakerBot Replicator 2X. Mechanical parts of the device are analyzed together with the operating software MakerBot DesktopThe following chapter is dealing with the limits and restrictions when it is printed on said 3D printer, except that describes important aspects when working on the printer. For the creation of electronic models are suggested appropriate programs for use in elementary school. A significant milestone is forming the problems of 3D printing, which can serve as a guide for the elimination of print quality problems, malfunctioning of 3D printers and others. Interesting models are designed for teaching physics and working activities that the students facilitate understanding of the substance of the response and act as activating element within lesson. It was created a list of important sites where you can find models suitable not only for teaching in elementary schools, but also for other purposes. The last chapter deals with the economic aspect of 3D printing.
