Problems solved by technology

The production cost of wire is low and the processing performance is good, but its wire is easily softened and expanded by heat, which blocks the feed throat and affects continuous and stable printing; the prior art utility model patent (application number: 201620025599.9) discloses a fused deposition type 3D The cooling print nozzle of the printer, this design ensures the smooth advancement and melting extrusion of consumables, and improves the smoothness of printing
However, in the actual clinical application of FDM, there are still problems such as printing consumables are susceptible to moisture and oxidation, which will directly affect the quality and performance of molded parts. Problems such as material pollution and waste are still unresolved; in addition, another granular feed nozzle device appears in the scaffold fabrication process in the field of tissue engineering, which uses a cylindrical barrel to heat thermoplastic pellets to melt and maintain a constant melting Under high temperature, the molten material is quantitatively extruded from the nozzle by air pressure or screw. This feeding method has a wide range of forming materials and high printing accuracy, but the pellets need to be completely heated and melted in the barrel before being extruded, which is not only easy to cause material hanging The wall phenomenon, and long-term heating at high temperature can easily cause molecular bond breakage, material degradation, and seriously affect the good performance of polymer materials

Embodiment 1-1

[0040] 1) Take a certain amount of polylactide (PLA) particles and grind them with a pulverizer, and place them in a mortar for further grinding. Dry the ground materials in a vacuum dryer at room temperature for 24 hours and then use a 28-mesh sieve for sieving After processing, the obtained powder is ready for use.

[0041] 2) Take a unit volume of polylactide polymer material powder, measure its mass by an electronic balance to be 0.90g, and calculate the density of the powder to be 0.90g / cm 3 , According to the volume is 1.13cm 3 The mold calculates the mass of the sample to be 1.02g, and weighs a sample of the same mass with a balance.

[0042] 3) Put the weighed powder sample with sulfuric acid paper into a powder pressing mold with a diameter of 5mm, place the weighing mold with the sample powder on top of the hydraulic pressure, press 5Mpa and keep the pressure for 3 minutes until the pre-pressed sample becomes a cylindrical shape, and continue at a constant speed Press to ...

Embodiment 1-2~1-4

[0045] The molding pressure of step 3) in Example 1-1 was changed from 15Mpa to 10Mpa, 20Mpa, and 25Mpa, and the remaining experimental conditions were the same as those in Example 1-1, and the required preformed rod was finally prepared.

[0046] Table 1 The influence of forming pressure on the relative density of the bar and the wire-out time

[0047]

[0048]

[0049] Table 1 shows that when the molding pressure is lower than 15Mpa, although the thread-out time is short, its compressive strength is low, and the thread-out is accompanied by bubbles, which is prone to wire breakage and low molding accuracy. Above 15Mpa, the threading time is long and the material is easy to degrade. Therefore, the optimal molding pressure of the polylactide preformed rod in Example 1-1 of the present invention is selected to be 15Mpa. The molding pressure of other polymer material prefabricated rods can be determined according to its own properties.

Embodiment 1-5~1-9

[0051] The 5mm diameter mold in Example 1-1 was changed to 6mm, 7mm, 8mm, 9mm, and 10mm respectively, and the rest of the experimental conditions were the same as that of Example 1-1, and the required preform was finally prepared.

[0052] Table 2 The influence of the diameter of the bar on the printing and extrusion speed and the wire-out time

[0053]

[0054] Table 2 shows that the influence of bar diameter on bar extrusion speed and printing time is not obvious. It can be seen that the design freedom of bar specifications is relatively high, and it can be quantitatively designed according to clinical needs.
