A digital light processing 3D printer

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of printers, and discloses a digital light processing 3D printer, which includes a liquid tank, a bottom solution, a retention plate, a projector, a lifting structure, a workbench, a through hole and a photosensitive resin feeding tube. In this digital photoprocessing 3D printer, by setting the photosensitive resin on the immiscible and heavy liquid, when the photochemical reaction is in progress, the peristaltic pump at the bottom slowly controls the amount of the bottom liquid, so that the photosensitive resin can be lowered. The height of the liquid level is always maintained in the chemical reaction layer, and the photosensitive resin can be lifted while forming with the molded part, and it will be separated in time before the adhesion is formed, so as to avoid too long stagnation time after a layer of reaction, and the printed object layer is still in a liquid state In the photosensitive resin, the molded part and the photosensitive resin are bonded, causing the problem of difficult demoulding, which improves the demoulding efficiency and success rate, and at the same time avoids the impact of excessive friction on the production equipment during demoulding.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of printers, in particular to a digital light processing 3D printer. Background technique [0002] 3D printing technology is under the control of computers, based on the principle of "additive manufacturing", three-dimensional accumulation of discrete materials layer by layer, the technology of forming and manufacturing parts prototypes or final products, after decades of development, has developed a variety of The 3D printing technology path is divided into extrusion type, granular material molding, photopolymerization molding and other moldings from the broad categories. Photopolymerization molding mainly includes light curing (SLA), digital light processing (DLP), polymer Injection (PI).

Problems solved by technology

[0003] Digital light processing printers use photosensitive resin as the molding material, and irradiate with ultraviolet light to accelerate the molding of the exposed resin. In the actual production of digital light processing printers, when the resin is sensitively formed layer by layer, each time the layer is changed To separate the molded part from the resin tank, but for each layer printed, the printed object layer is still in the liquid photosensitive resin. When the printing platform moves upwards, it is necessary to overcome the adhesive force between the molded part and the printing platform. The demoulding method will not only affect the molding effect, but also affect the service life of some parts of the printer; moreover, the digital light processing printer uses photosensitive resin as the printing material, and the photosensitive resin is placed in the container, but the object is printed There is no need for so much resin material, and the photosensitive resin exposed to the outside for a long time is easy to harden and can no longer be used. Therefore, it is easy to waste materials when using DLP molding technology to manufacture objects.
