Problems solved by technology

The disadvantage is that it needs to open the mold, which takes a long time and costs a lot. It is only suitable for mass production, and it is difficult to adapt to the generation of metal models of small batches and multiple styles.
Surface coating can only be carried out after forming. Since it is difficult to draw high-precision images on the surface of three-dimensional objects in the existing technology, the surface coating of existing metal models is relatively simple. Generally, it has been painted by "painting" or "baking paint" , single color, unable to draw high-precision patterns and realistic colors

Abstract

The invention belongs to a metal model manufacturing technology, and in particular relates to a method for manufacturing a colored metal model by a three-dimensional (3d) digital model. The method comprises the following steps of: arranging the model, unfolding the model, composing graphs, manufacturing etching graphs, etching a metal sheet material, manufacturing an etching sheet surface coating and a colored printing graph, and printing and assembling etching sheets to form the metal model. A die is not required to be opened, and the 3D digital model can be composed to form a planar graph for processing a metal thin plate so as to produce various types of metal models. A planar metal plate can be directly printed and colored, various high-precision colored patterns can be printed or stamped on the metal plate, and the metal model is bright in color and vivid in pattern. The method is suitable for small-batch production and can meet humanized requirements of different objects.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the metal model making technology, in particular to a method for making a colored metal model from a 3D digital model. Background technique [0002] Metal materials have good physical properties such as hardness, strength, rigidity, toughness, and elasticity, as well as ductility during processing. Metal surfaces treated by physical processing or chemical methods can give people a strong beauty of processing technology and beauty of their own materials. Choosing metal materials for model making can obtain ideal quality. However, the production of metal models in the prior art requires professional equipment and multiple processes, which is relatively difficult, especially the surface coating of the formed metal models has become a major problem. The existing metal model processing technology is mainly completed by technologies such as "casting" and "stamping". The disadvantage is that it needs to open the mold, which takes a...
