Abstract:Diplomska naloga obravnava proces računalniško podprte optimizacije mehanskega elementa – jermenice, namenjene izdelavi s tehnologijo aditivne proizvodnje. Glavni cilj raziskave je bil razviti lahek, a mehansko ustrezen model jermenice, ki omogoča prenos navora s pomočjo klinastih jermenov. Najprej je bila izvedena analiza osnovnega modela CAD v programskem okolju Ansys, sledila pa je topološka optimizacija z namenom zmanjšanja mase in optimizacije oblike. Optimiziran model je bil nato pripravljen za 3D-tisk v programu Bambu Studio, kjer so bile dodatno optimizirane nastavitve, kot so gostota polnila, višina sloja in orientacija. Končni model je bil ponovno ovrednoten s trdnostno analizo, ki je upoštevala spremenjene materialne lastnosti zaradi 3D-tiskanja. Rezultati potrjujejo uspešno izvedeno optimizacijo, ki omogoča izdelavo funkcionalnih in lahkih mehanskih elementov z uporabo aditivne proizvodnje ob minimalni porabi materiala. Ugotovitve potrjujejo potencial združevanja računalniško podprte optimizacije in aditivnih tehnologij za učinkovito, trajnostno in stroškovno ugodno inženirsko snovanje.

Title:COMPUTER AIDED OPTIMIZATION IN ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING
Abstract:This thesis explores the process of computer-aided optimization for the design of a mechanical component—a pulley—intended for fabrication via additive manufacturing technologies. The principal aim of the research was to develop a lightweight yet mechanically robust pulley model capable of efficiently transmitting torque using V-belts. The workflow commenced with an in-depth analysis of the initial CAD model using Ansys simulation software, followed by the application of topological optimization techniques to minimize mass while preserving structural integrity. The optimized geometry was subsequently processed in Bambu Studio, where key 3D printing parameters—such as infill density, layer height, and build orientation—were further refined. The finalized model underwent an additional round of structural analysis to account for modified material properties resulting from the FDM 3D printing process. The results clearly demonstrate the effectiveness of the optimization approach, yielding functional and lightweight mechanical elements produced with minimal material waste. These findings underscore the significant potential of integrating computer-aided optimization and advanced additive manufacturing methods to achieve efficient, sustainable, and economically viable engineering solutions.
Keywords:Additive manufacturing, optimization, FDM technology, mechanical element, belt drive, topological optimization, structural analysis
