Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of 3D printing, and particularly to an automatic leveling method and a leveling device for a conveyor-type 3D printer. Background Art
[0002] With the wide application of 3D printing technology in multiple fields such as industrial manufacturing, bioengineering, architecture, and art, the requirements for its printing accuracy and stability are continuously increasing. Especially in the field of conveyor-type 3D printing, due to its unique working mechanism, precise distance control between the printing platform (i.e., the heated bed) and the print head becomes crucial. The traditional manual leveling method relies on the operator's experience and skills, and adjusts the height of the heated bed by rotating adjustment screws or adjusting nuts in order to meet the flatness requirements. However, this method has the following disadvantages:
[0003] Accuracy limitation: Manual leveling relies on human eye judgment and manual operation, making it difficult to achieve the accuracy requirements at the micron level, and there may be slight differences in the repeated leveling operations before each printing.
[0004] Time-consuming: Users need to repeatedly adjust and detect multiple points of the heated bed to ensure the flatness of the entire printing platform, which is usually time-consuming and boring.
[0005] Stability problem: Even if the initial leveling is successful, long-term use or mechanical vibration may still cause slight position offsets of the heated bed, affecting the stability and consistency of subsequent printing operations.
[0006] High user threshold: For users lacking experience, it takes a long time to learn and practice precise manual leveling skills.

[0050] Embodiment 1
[0051] The present invention provides a method for automatically leveling a transmission type 3D printer, referring to Figure 3 As shown, the leveling method comprises the following steps:
[0052] S1: Calibrate a preset threshold based on a preset calibration algorithm and calibration data to obtain an initialization threshold.
[0053] In this embodiment, after the entire printer is powered on, a preset calibration algorithm and calibration data are used to accurately calibrate the threshold in the data processing process to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the threshold, especially optimized for the special requirements of the 45° 3D printer.
[0054] Exemplarily, after power-on, a preset calibration algorithm and calibration data are loaded. These data are pre-collected and determined based on the characteristics of a 45° 3D printer, taking into account the special angles and possible variables during printing. Then, the calibration algorithm runs to compare the expected input (such as the output signal of the strain gauge under different pressures) with the actual measured value, and adjusts the threshold used to determine the contact state between the nozzle and the hot bed during data processing based on the comparison result. For example, if the measured value is lower than the expected value, the threshold is increased; conversely, if the measured value is higher than the expected value, the threshold is lowered, and the above steps are repeated until the predetermined accuracy requirement is met or the preset number of iterations is completed. Finally, the final threshold is stored for use in subsequent printing processes. This step uses a series of known data (these data are collected during the design and testing phases and reflect the strain gauge deformation corresponding to the ideal contact pressure) to adjust the threshold to ensure that it can accurately identify when the nozzle contacts the hot bed.
[0055] Specifically, the calibration algorithm adopts a multi-point average algorithm, that is, by presetting multiple detection points on the hot bed, for example, Figure 5 Points A, B, C, D, E, and F in the figure form a leveling reference line based on the pressure feedback of the nozzle at each point.
[0056] S2: Obtain the contact pressure between the nozzle and the hot bed through the deformation of the induction sheet, and transmit the contact pressure to the strain gauge connected to the induction sheet, so as to convert the contact pressure into a voltage signal through the strain gauge.
[0057] In this embodiment, when the nozzle of the print head touches the hot bed, first, the induction sheet deforms, and this deformation will be transmitted to the strain gauge. The strain gauge, which is a pressure sensor, will convert the deformation into a voltage signal, but the voltage signal obtained at this time is weak.
[0058] S3: Perform signal amplification processing on the voltage signal output by the strain gauge.
[0059] In this embodiment, an optimized amplification circuit is used to amplify the electrical signal output by the strain gauge, reduce parasitic effects and coupling noise, improve the strength and stability of the signal, and reduce the influence of noise.
[0060] Specifically, the optimized amplification circuit adopts a low-noise instrumentation amplifier structure to amplify the electrical signal output by the strain gauge deformation detection module. The optimized circuit can reduce parasitic effects and coupling noise. At the same time, a negative feedback mechanism is introduced to cancel the noise generated inside the amplifier through the feedback loop, improving the linearity and stability of the amplifier. In addition, noise suppression processing is performed on the power supply to reduce the influence of power supply noise on the performance of the amplifier.
[0061] S4: Compare the voltage signal converted by the received strain gauge with the initial threshold formed by detecting the distances at multiple points based on a comparison algorithm to obtain a comparison result, where the comparison result is represented by a high level or a low level.
[0062] In this embodiment, compare the amplified voltage signal with the calibrated initial threshold to determine whether the signal exceeds the threshold, which can accurately identify small signal changes and determine the contact state between the nozzle and the hot bed.
[0063] Specifically, the comparison algorithm adopts a differential comparison algorithm. Its specific working process is as follows: First, calculate the difference value of the continuous signal, that is, the difference between the current signal value and the previous signal value. This difference value represents the change rate or trend of the signal. Then, perform comparison and judgment: Compare the calculated difference value with a preset threshold. If the difference value is greater than the threshold, it is considered that the signal has changed significantly, that is, the nozzle may be in contact with the hot bed; if the difference value is less than the threshold, it is considered that the signal has not changed significantly, that is, the nozzle may not be in contact with the hot bed. Then, according to the comparison result, output a high level or a low level, respectively representing the contact states of contacting the hot bed and not contacting the hot bed.
[0064] S5: Determine the contact state between the nozzle and the hot bed according to the obtained comparison result of high level or low level, specifically:
[0065] If the comparison result is low level, it indicates that the contact state is non-contact.
[0066] If the comparison result is high level, it indicates that the contact state is contact, and an adjustment amount is calculated according to the contact state by using a data processing algorithm, and an adjustment instruction is generated at the same time.
[0067] In this embodiment, if the comparison result is high level, it is judged as contact; if the comparison result is low level, it is judged as non-contact. Then when the contact state is contact, a data processing algorithm is used to calculate the adjustment amount and generate an adjustment instruction, which can accurately calculate the adjustment amount to be adjusted, so as to control the lifting of the print head and realize automatic leveling.
[0068] Specifically, the data processing algorithm adopts a median filtering algorithm, and the specific calculation process is as follows: a series of comparison results (high level or low level) are collected in advance, and these results reflect the contact state between the nozzle and the hot bed in consecutive measurement cycles; then, the median filtering algorithm is applied to the series of comparison results collected, which means sorting the result sequence and selecting the value in the middle as the output. If the sequence length is even, the average of the two middle values is usually taken. Finally, the current contact state is determined according to the result after median filtering. Since median filtering can reduce the influence of outliers, it can be considered that this result more accurately reflects the actual contact state. Finally, the median obtained by the median filtering algorithm can be regarded as a reliable representation of the current contact state between the nozzle and the hot bed. This median helps to eliminate misjudgments caused by occasional abnormal data points (such as electrical noise or instantaneous interference); according to the result of median filtering, one or more thresholds are determined to judge whether the nozzle touches the hot bed; then, the deviation between the current median and the ideal contact state is measured, and the ideal contact state is the median expected when the nozzle just touches the hot bed; based on the magnitude and direction of the deviation, it is decided whether to adjust the print head up or down and the specific amount of adjustment. If the median continuously deviates from the ideal contact state, a larger adjustment may be required; if the median is close to the ideal state, only fine adjustment is needed; finally, according to the calculated adjustment amount, specific control instructions are formulated, and these instructions will be sent to the control system of the printer to perform actual physical adjustments.
[0069] S6: Based on the adjustment instruction, control the print head of the printer to act according to the adjustment amount to realize automatic leveling, where the action includes the print head rising or falling.
[0070] In this embodiment, according to the adjustment instruction, control the motor to drive the print head to rise or fall to realize high-precision automatic leveling, improve the adhesion effect with the hot bed when printing the model, and reduce the probability of printing failure.
[0071] In addition, when determining whether the nozzle and the heated bed reach an ideal gap, there is a deviation of up to 2 millimeters between the measured distance and the actual required distance. This error range is used as the standard to define whether the leveling is successful. If the actually measured gap falls within ±2 mm around an ideal set value, it is considered an acceptable leveling result.
[0072] The working principle of an automatic leveling method for a conveyor-type 3D printer provided by the present invention is as follows: After the system is powered on, the threshold calibration module is automatically activated. The threshold calibration module accurately calibrates the threshold during the data processing process according to the preset calibration algorithm and calibration data. During the printing leveling process, when the nozzle touches the magnetic heat-absorbing bed, the deformation detection module converts the deformation into an electrical signal for output. The signal comparison module receives the electrical signal output by the strain gauge deformation detection module and compares it with the preset initial threshold, and outputs corresponding high and low level signals. The data processing module receives the high and low level signals output by the signal comparison module, judges the contact state between the nozzle and the heated bed according to the change of the signal, and sends the level to the adjustment module. The adjustment module receives the adjustment instruction and controls the motor to drive the print head to move up and down to achieve automatic leveling.

At the same time, the print head can move horizontally along the conveying direction of the first-direction moving mechanism to adjust the horizontal position, and finally complete the cooperation to realize 3D printing.
