Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of three-dimensional manufacturing and relates to a 3D printer with multiple printing heads. Background technique
[0002] The material selected in the melt extrusion molding (FDM) process is generally a thermoplastic material and is fed in a filamentary form, such as wax, ABS, PC, nylon, etc. The material is heated and melted in the nozzle, and the nozzle moves along the section profile of the part and the filling trajectory , while extruding the molten material, the material solidifies rapidly and bonds with the surrounding materials. Each layer in this process is accumulated on the previous layer, so the previous layer plays a role in positioning and supporting the current layer; as the height increases, the area and shape of the layer profile will change , when the shape changes greatly, the upper profile cannot provide sufficient positioning and support for the current layer, which requires the design of some au...
