A method for printing continuous flax fiber-reinforced plastic (CFFRP) composites parts by five-axis three-dimensional (3D) printer based on fused deposition modelling (FDM) technology has been developed. FDM printed parts usually need supporting structures, have stair step effect, and unfavorable mechanical properties. In order to address these deficiencies, continuous natural fiber prepreg filaments were first manufactured, followed by curved path planning for the model for generating the G-code, and finally printed by five-axis 3D printer. The surface quality of printed parts had been greatly improved. The compressive strength and modulus of the 3D-printed CFFRP specimens increased by 29% and 522% respectively, compared with planar slicing method.
