Ultrasonic-assisted continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic resin 3D printing device and method

Abstract

The invention relates to an ultrasonic-assisted continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic resin 3D printing device and method, and the device comprises a printing platform (1), an ultrasonic fixing seat (5), an ultrasonic clamp (6), an ultrasonic amplitude transformer (7), an ultrasonic transducer (8), an ultrasonic generator (9), and a heat dissipation module (3). The ultrasonic fixing base (5), the ultrasonic clamp (6), the ultrasonic transducer (8), the ultrasonic amplitude-change pole (7) and the heat dissipation module (3) can integrally move along with a movement mechanism of the 3D printer. When the continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic resin prepreg filaments pass through the internal flow channel of the vertical section of the ultrasonic amplitude-change pole, ultrasonic waves directly act on the molten continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic resin prepreg filaments, so that full impregnation between fibers and thermoplastic resin is realized; when the ultrasonic waves are transmitted to the end face of the printing nozzle along the vertical section of the ultrasonic amplitude-change pole, the ultrasonic waves directly act between the printing layers, and then a 3D printing continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite product which is small in pore, good in interface bonding and excellent in performance is prepared.
