熔融沉积成型3D打印喷头热力场分析及散热优化

Thermodynamics simulation and cooling improvement of fused deposition modeling 3D printer nozzle

  • 摘要: 熔融沉积成型3D打印机在熔胶过程中,喷头内的线材会出现半熔流动性差的线段,该现象会影响喷头的打印效果,甚至会引起喷头堵头。针对此现象,设计出一款温升效率高、结构精简、投入成本低的3D打印喷头喉管冷却装置。通过ANSYS软件对方案进行了热学仿真分析后进行结构优化,得到一种温度场分布更优的方案。通过与现有的两种方案在温升效率、正空间性能和打印精度三方面进行实验比对,同时对3种方案进行成本分析。结果表明,本设计优化后的方案在保证打印精度和温升效率的情况下,提高了喷头的性能,并降低了成本。

     

    Abstract: During the fused deposition modeling(FDM) 3D printer fusing the filament, part of the semi-fused and poor-fluidity supplies appear in the nozzle, which effects the 3D printout, and even results in the nozzle blocked. For this problem, the high-efficiency temperature rise, simple structure and low-cost cooling device of 3D printer nozzle is proposed in this paper. In this paper, after the thermodynamics simulation of the original nozzle from ansys, the improved nozzle is proposed with the better temperature field distribution. Compared with two existing structure, the temperature rise test, positive space performance test, printer precision test and cost analysis is conducted. The results show that, the nozzle performance of the proposal is improved, and the cost is lower with guaranteeing the positive space performance and printer precision.
