Abstract [eng] "Smart" products occupy even greater space in our lives every day. Their abilities to accomplish extraordinary tasks brings new opportunities. More and more focus is being put into research and development of such products. This is where 3D printing steps in. In this work, rigidity was being tested of specimens, composed of stiff polymers (ABS, PETG) and maghetorheological liquid, under magnetic field of different strength. To manufacture these specimens, special RepRap style 3D printer was developed, which was based on Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) and material extrusion principles. Specimens were mounted into stove and pulled to measure force of resistance. Magnetic field of different strength was created by using ceramic or neodymium magnets and by changing their position and orientation. Found relations between load and displacement were described in the work. A change in rigidity was found not only after changing magnet's place or type, but also after changing its orientation.
