How does Industrial grade FDM Plastic 3D printing work?
The principle of Industrial grade FDM rapid prototyping:
The filamentous thermoplastic material is heated and melted through a nozzle, with a micro nozzle (usually 0.2-0.6mm in diameter) at the bottom of the nozzle. Under computer control, the nozzle moves to a designated position based on the data of the 3D model, extruding the molten liquid material and finally solidifying it. After the material is sprayed out, it is deposited on the previous layer of solidified material, and the final product is formed by stacking the material layer by layer.
Industrial grade FDM 3D printers are mostly used in large-scale industrial production, in various fields such as aerospace, automotive, medical, and electronic products
FDM Working principle
Advantages of Industrial grade FDM 3D printing rapid prototyping:
(1)Due to the simple construction principle and operation of the hot melt extrusion head system, low maintenance cost, and safe system operation;
(2)The molding speed is slow, and products produced using the melt deposition method do not require the scraper processing process in SLA;
(3)Prototypes of parts formed with wax can be directly used for investment casting;
(4)Can shape parts of any complexity, commonly used for forming parts with very complex cavities, holes, etc;
(5)The raw materials have no chemical changes during the forming process, and the warping deformation of the parts is small;
(6)High utilization rate of raw materials and long material life
What materials can you choose for Industrial grade FDM plastic 3D printing?
The materials of FDM are generally thermoplastic materials, such as wax, ABS, nylon, etc. Feed in filamentous form. The material is heated and melted inside the nozzle. The nozzle moves along the cross-sectional profile and filling trajectory of the part, while extruding the melted material, which quickly solidifies and condenses with the surrounding material
