Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of 3D printing, in particular to a tuyere for 3D printing, a multi-channel retractable nozzle valve with a tuyere using the tuyere for 3D printing, and a 3D printing system using the nozzle valve for 3D printing. Background technique [0002] 3D printing is a technology of manufacturing three-dimensional products by adding materials layer by layer through 3D printing equipment according to the designed 3D model. This layer-by-layer build-up forming technology is also called additive manufacturing. 3D printing integrates cutting-edge technologies in many fields such as digital modeling technology, electromechanical control technology, information technology, material science and chemistry. It is a kind of rapid prototyping technology and is known as the core technology of the "third industrial revolution". Compared with traditional manufacturing technology, 3D printing does not need to make molds in ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0003] In the process of 3D printing, there are also the following technical problems: in order to quickly print the hot material ejected from the nozzle, it needs to be properly cooled to control the flow state of the material. However, the existing technology usually uses fans and blowers for air cooling. The air cooling method has low accuracy and can only dissipate heat in a large area. However, in fact, it only needs to dissipate heat locally on the material that has just been extruded. The large-scale heat dissipation makes the surrounding materials that have cooled to an appropriate temperature continue to cool unnecessarily. The printing adhesion fastness of the next layer is reduced, that is, the accuracy of the existing air-cooled heat dissipation method is low

[0004] If the external air nozzle is used to precisely align the printing nozzle for cooling, there will be serious problems: the external air nozzle is set in any direction of the printing nozzle, and the wind force is biased, so the wind force should not be too large, because it is easy to blow away the printing material, the wind force If it is too small, the cooling effect will not be strong
