3D printer's cross-color feeding and mixed-color feeding control system

Abstract

The invention discloses a color-crossing feeding and color-mixing feeding control system of a 3D printer. The color-crossing feeding and color-mixing feeding control system of the 3D printer comprises a supporting body and a feeding control device, wherein the feeding control device is arranged at the upper end of the supporting body and used for controlling the flow direction of raw materials. The supporting body is provided with a plurality of single-color melt runners for receiving the raw materials provided by the feeding control device. The feeding control device is arranged to be capable of being switched between the color-crossing guide state and the color-mixing guide state. When the feeding control device is in the color-crossing guide state, the feeding control device receives multiple strands of solid raw materials and can guide the multiple strands of solid raw materials to sequentially go deep into the corresponding single-color melt runners. When the feeding control device is in the color-mixing guide state, the feeding control device receives multiple strands of solid raw materials and guides the raw materials into a material mixing mechanism so that molten-state mixed materials can be generated, and the feeding control device also guides the molten-state mixed raw materials into one single-color melt runner.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a 3D printer, in particular to a color 3D printer. Background technique [0002] 3D printing has brought about a global manufacturing revolution. In the past, component design was completely dependent on whether the production process could be realized. The emergence of 3D printers will subvert this production idea, which makes enterprises no longer consider production when producing components. Process issues, the design of any complex shape can be realized by 3D printer; 3D printing can directly generate objects of any shape from computer graphics data without machining or molds, thus greatly shortening the production cycle of products and improving production efficiency. productivity. Although it still needs to be perfected, the market potential of 3D printing technology is huge, and it is bound to become one of the many breakthrough technologies in the future manufacturing industry.

Problems solved by technology

[0003] Existing 3D printers mostly use monochrome printing, and color printers mostly use mixed-color raw materials for printing, that is, mixed materials produced by mixing raw materials of various colors; 3D printers currently on the market do not use cross-color raw materials for printing , the cross-color raw material is made of multiple sections of different-color raw materials connected in series. Since different printing objects require different cross-color lengths and color distribution schemes, it is impossible to make cross-color raw materials before printing. Therefore, constraints The realization of cross-color printing
