[0002] 3D printing, a type of rapid prototyping technology, also known as additive manufacturing, is a technology that uses digital model files as the basis and uses adhesive materials such as powdered metal or plastic to construct objects by printing layer by layer. With the development of modern technology and technology, adhesive materials are not only limited to powdered metal or plastic. There are also some filamentous raw materials that are bonded after hot melting to complete the printing.

[0003] As disclosed in the publication number CN107839235A, a wire feeder for a 3D printer comprises a wire feeding motor and a wire feeding gear. A wire feeding tube is correspondingly provided on the upper portion of the wire feeding gear, and the lower end of the wire feeding tube is close to the wire feeding gear. A penetrable quick connector is provided on the outside of the wire feeding tube, and the penetrable quick connector is connected to the wire feeding motor through a quick connector fixing seat. A wire feeding bearing is correspondingly provided on the side of the wire feeding gear. The printer consumable wire passes through the wire feeding tube and is close to the wire feeding gear for transmission, which can effectively prevent the remote wire feeder from getting tangled at the wire feeding gear when using 3D printing flexible consumables, and can simultaneously maintain high-speed printing of the 3D printer.

[0004] That is, wire feeding is used for hot melt printing, and in order to achieve the best printing effect, the discharge port is sometimes made perpendicular to the processing surface to avoid tilting and improve the printing effect of the workpiece.

[0005] For example, publication number CN109465450A describes a wire-feeding 3D printer for vertically printing metal materials, comprising a 3D printer body, a metal wire, and a mold cavity. The 3D printer body includes multiple print heads, each positioned above the mold cavity and capable of covering the entire cross-section of the product to be printed. The metal wire is mounted on the print heads. During operation, the multiple print heads move vertically in sync, and the molten metal wire forms a molten pool in the mold cavity, where the molten pool crystallizes into a vertical columnar morphology. This invention alters the crystallization state of the metal material, forming an ideal columnar microstructure in the vertical direction, improving the internal quality of the product.
