Problems solved by technology

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an inkjet 3D printing method for automatic leveling. The printing layer has an automatic leveling effect because it is printed in a liquid state, which solves the problem of uneven product surfaces in the prior art, and because no support material is needed It can be formed, which greatly improves the printing efficiency. The injection material can be changed according to the needs during printing, and a part of the molding material does not need to pass through the nozzle, which expands the selection range of this part of the molding material

Abstract

The invention provides an automatic-leveling ink jet 3D printing method. Firstly, a mixture containing a photoinitiator and an ultraviolet curing material is added into an ink box of a 3D printer; a liquid trough is formed below a jet head of the printer; a height-adjustable supporting stand is arranged at the bottom in the liquid trough, the ultraviolet curing material is added into the liquid trough, and the plane of the supporting stand is initially set to be lower than the horizontal plane of liquid in the liquid trough; a model to be printed is input into the 3D printer for printing setting; and the printer is started, the material is jetted onto the supporting stand through the jet head and mixed with the liquid in the liquid trough in the supporting stand, ultraviolet irradiation is performed for forming, and a needed model is formed through sequential and repeated printing deposition. Printing is performed in the liquid state every time, and the liquid level can be automatically leveled or pushed to be even through motive power, so that the surface of an obtained product is smooth and flat, and the problem of uneven surfaces of products in the prior art is solved; and besides, forming can be achieved without a supporting material, so that the printing efficiency is greatly improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of inkjet printing, and in particular relates to an inkjet 3D printing method that can be automatically flattened. Background technique [0002] 3D printers have been in commercial use for about 30 years and are no longer new technology to professionals in the field. Over the past 30 years, it has been used by designers, engineers and scientists to create one-off mechanical products and models. With a 3D printer, we can build a model of any item we imagined in the computer, and turn it into a real object through the printer. Different types of 3D printing technologies have different molding principles and system characteristics due to the different molding materials used, but the basic principles are the same, that is, "layer-by-layer manufacturing, layer-by-layer superposition". At present, 3D printing technologies mainly include inkjet, volumetric molding and laser sintering. Inkjet 3D printing technolo...
