Abstract: In this work, the relationship between the process factors of a small-scale single-screw extruder for consumable filaments and the diameter of 3D printing consumable filaments was analyzed, and then a BP neural network-based prediction model was established by setting the die temperatures of three zones, barrel temperature, screw speed and tractor speed of single-screw extruder as input variables and the filament diameter as an output variable. The more accurate results could be obtained from this BP neural network prediction model, indicating a good prediction capability. Based on the network model developed by this work, the prediction software was designed and developed for application in the production line of consumable filaments, and this software could provide a high-efficient and rational guidance for determining the processing technology.
