Additive technologies using Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) technology are currently a promising tool for the production of polymeric multicomposites. This paper presents the results of a static 3-point bending test carried out on 3D printed samples of the PLA-TPU composite. The article also discusses initial vibrodiagnostic research and Finite Element Method (FEM) analysis of the 3D-printed composite bushings. The data obtained from FEM analysis served as input data for motion simulation analysis, where the influence of the stiffness of the suspension on the trajectory has been verified.
