Abstract

The invention discloses a composite fiber material for the FDM technology. The composite fiber material comprises a fiber core and thermoplastic plastic wrapping the outer layer of the fiber core. The fiber core is glass fiber or carbon fiber or a metal wire, and the diameter of the fiber core ranges from 5 micrometers to 20 micrometers. The diameter of the fiber material ranges from 20 micrometers to 50 micrometers. The thermoplastic plastic wrapping the outer layer of the fiber core contains 5-30%wt of reinforcing fiber with the diameter of 0.1 micrometer to 1 micrometer and the length smaller than or equal to 1 mm. A method for preparing the composite fiber material includes the steps of firstly, heating the thermoplastic plastic to the molten state; secondly, adding the reinforcing fiber into the molten plastic and evenly mixing the reinforcing fiber with the molten plastic; thirdly, evenly attaching the mixed melt to the surface of the fiber core through a fiber sending mechanism; fourthly, obtaining the composite fiber material with the diameter of 20 micrometers to 50 micrometers through extruding and sizing. The short reinforcing fiber and the fiber core are added to the thermoplastic plastic, and therefore the attaching effect between interfaces of the molten fiber material can be enhanced, axial connection strength of all layers of a printed piece is enhanced, and the independent tensile strength of each layer in the radial direction can be improved as well.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of additive manufacturing and relates to melt extrusion molding technology, in particular to a composite fiber filament material used in FDM technology and a method for preparing the composite fiber material. Background technique [0002] At present, additive manufacturing technology, that is, 3D printing technology is having an impact on traditional manufacturing. Fusion extrusion molding (FDM) technology is an important branch of additive manufacturing technology. It mainly uses thermoplastics as processing materials, which usually need to be pre-processed into filaments. The wire is fed into the nozzle by the wire feeding mechanism, heated, melted and extruded in the nozzle, and then quickly solidified and bonded with the surrounding materials. The nozzle moves along the cross-sectional contour of the part to fill layer by layer, so as to achieve the purpose of molding. Compared with the traditional process, FDM t...
