[0002] 3D printing is a technology that uses digital model files as the basis, thermoplastic materials and bondable materials to construct objects by printing layer by layer. Its characteristic is that it can print objects of most shapes. Compared with traditional manufacturing technology, 3D printing can produce relatively small quantities of products faster, more flexibly and at a lower cost. With the development of 3D printing, 3D printers have gradually entered people's daily lives. However, the price of 3D printers is relatively high. In order to reduce the cost of users, 3D self-service printing services came into being.
[0003] Traditional 3D printing terminals usually include a housing, a three-axis adjustment module arranged in the housing, a printing module for printing, and a support platform for carrying models. In the prior art, a hot bed is usually arranged on the support platform. In order to facilitate printing, there is usually a certain degree of adhesion between the bottom of the printed model and the hot bed. After the printing operation is completed, it is usually necessary to use a spatula or other tools to scrape the model off the hot bed. The operation is cumbersome, time-consuming and labor-intensive. Especially when performing self-service printing, it takes a lot of time to cut the model, which will have a certain impact on subsequent users. For this reason, we propose a 3D self-service printing service terminal to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

Since the dividing knife 18 is provided with a blade 19 on both the front and rear sides, and the bottom of the blade 19 is in contact with the top of the object support table 6, the dividing knife 18 can shovel the printed model along the top of the object support table 6 through the blade 19 when moving, so as to realize the rapid separation of the model and the object support table 6, and by providing a plurality of balancing holes 20 on the dividing knife 18, it is helpful to destroy the dividing knife 18 when cutting the model.
