This paper proposes a systematic method for evaluating the dimensional and geometrical performance of such machines using the concept of machine performance. The method was applied to an Ultimaker 2+ printer producing parts with polylactic acid (PLA). The X and Y axes of the printer were the most performant and led to narrower potential and real tolerance intervals than the Z axis. The proposed systematic framework can be used to assess the performance of any material extrusion printer and its achievable tolerance intervals. eng Attribution 4.0 International http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ © 2024 The Authors additive manufacturing material extrusion machine performance capability GBTA artifact A Systematic Method for Assessing the Machine Performance of Material Extrusion Printers http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501
