Polylactic acid (PLA), despite its widespread use in three‐dimensional (3D) printing technique, is lacking in the literature on creep behavior due to the printing parameters. Also, the potential use of carbon fiber‐reinforced composites as 3D printing materials is remarkable as it improves mechanical properties of the produced parts. Therefore, it is important to find out the positive/negative effects of composite filaments on creep strength. The main purpose of this research is to examine the creep behaviors of PLA and PLA composite produced with 3D printer and to reveal the effects of the printing parameters on the short‐term creep. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
