Accordingly, PLA parts were subjected to post-UV-curing at 15-, 30-, 45-, and 60-minute periods. The impact behaviour of the specimens produced with production parameters of 200 °C printing temperature, 0.2 mm layer thickness, 50 mm/s printing speed, 100% infill rate, and 45° raster angle was compared with the raw specimens after the post-UV-curing process was applied. As a result of the impact tests, peak force, peak displacement, peak energy, and puncture energy values were obtained from the force-displacement graphs. It has been revealed that the post-UV-curing implementation increases the peak force values of PLA specimens and decreases the displacement values compared to the raw specimens. All specimens' impact behaviour improves with the post-UV-curing process; however, a decreasing trend is entered after 30 min.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessPost-Ultraviolet-Curing Process Effects on Low-Velocity Impact Response of 3D Printed Polylactic Acid PartsArticle10.16984/saufenbilder.12797672759439551203144
