The developments of nano-material enable precise MXene fabrication, though pneumatic 3D printing still struggles with filament uniformity due to sensitivity in pressure, ink concentration, nozzle diameter and velocity. Traditional trial-and-error methods waste resources, highlighting the importance of intelligent, data-driven approaches to enhance parameters, minimize variation, and achieve consistent, high-quality MXene structures suitable for scalable applications. To address this, the research aims to develop a data-driven framework to optimize printing parameters, minimize unpredictability, and ensure uniform filament quality. MXene 3D Printing Filament Data with 5000 samples was gathered, and experimental conditions affecting filament formation, including nozzle diameter, ink concentration, temperature, printing velocity, and humidity. The dataset was standardized and cleaned to normalize feature scales and remove outliers using Min-max normalization. Dynamic Snap-Drift Cuckoo Search-driven Natural Gradient Boosting (DSDCS-NGBoost) forecasts the filament diameter using these characteristics. The DSDCS-NGBoost model outperforms all connected models, accomplishing the lowest RMSE (0.1052), MAE (0.0827), and highest R (0.9253), signifying superior predictive accuracy and reliable filament width control in MXene printing. This approach highlights the possibility of intelligent algorithms to bridge experimental precision with industrial-scale nano-manufacturing.
