The invention relates to a three-dimensional
rapid prototyping method and device based on pulse
small hole droplet injection and belongs to the technical field of three-dimensional
rapid prototyping. The three-dimensional
rapid prototyping method is characterized in that a heater is used for heating a
crucible until the metals in the
crucible are in the
molten state, a positive
differential pressure value is set between the interior of the
crucible and a
vacuum chamber, simultaneously a piezoelectric
ceramic driver applies certain pulse signals to piezoelectric ceramics to lead the piezoelectric ceramics to drive a transmission bar to generate longitudinal infinitesimal displacement, the infinitesimal displacement acts on the
metal melt at the bottom of the crucible, tiny droplets are injected from small holes arranged at the bottom of the crucible, one droplet can be formed at the position of the small holes once the piezoelectric ceramics move for one time, size data of the droplets are timely analyzed through a photograph
system, further the optimum parameter is obtained through adjustment; and the droplets fall to a moving three-dimensional motion platform to be deposited, and accordingly needed
metal parts are formed through depositing. The three-dimensional rapid prototyping method and device based on pulse
small hole droplet injection have the advantages that the pulse small holes inject to generate the
metal droplets with uniform and controllable sizes, prototyped products are fine and uniform in
microstructure, the prototyping process is strong in
controllability, and the formed parts are high in accuracy.
