Description

Continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic resin based composites 3D printing method and print head
Technical field
It is especially a kind of to utilize the fibre-reinforced thermoplastic resin of connection the present invention relates to a kind of Composites Molding Techniques Composite technology forming technique, specifically a kind of 3D printing method of continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic resin based composites And print head.
Background technique
A kind of rapid shaping (Rapid Prototyping) be integrated application CAD, high molecular material The novel manufacturing process in the cutting edge technologies such as science, Digital Control field, main thought successively or are point by point accumulated by material And produce the space geometry entity of certain structure.The technology subtracts manufacture process (by the extra of blank different from traditional Material removal obtains target entity), and improving becomes increasing material manufacturing technique, makes no longer to need molding die in manufacturing process, Shorten the Element Design period, the 3D solid of arbitrarily complicated structure can be produced, not the limit by process conditions and process equipment System, and the technology will not generate excess waste, stock utilization is high.The 3D printing technique that earlier 2000s occur is a kind of allusion quotation The rapid shaping technique of type, the technology is using powder such as metal, plastics, ceramics as basic consumptive material, based on digital model file benefit Go out the part of labyrinth with in-situ solidifyings technique, the layer-by-layer lay-up molding such as fusion sediment, laser sintered, photoetching solidification.The skill Art has been widely used in the industries such as aerospace, automobile, plastic products, biologic medical.
Fused glass pellet (FDM) technology relies on its lower cost and more excellent realizability, achieves in recent years Very big occupation rate of market, the Table top type FDM three-dimensional printer of the miniaturization especially occurred, so that individual consumer can also be certainly Row designs and produces complicated and have certain part for using function.But the technique using can heating and melting thermoplastic resin Consumptive material is moulding material, and material itself does not have continuity, and micel spacing is larger in layer, and the successively process characteristic of laying Poor inter-layer bonding force is caused, these features result in that part brittleness is big, and impact strength is low, and easily-deformable, load-carrying properties are poor. Although thering is scholar or enterprise to optimize mechanical property by the way of structural Topology Optimization in the design process of part, also or Particle is added in thermoplastic matrix, the reinforcements such as chopped strand cannot fundamentally improve fusion sediment technique eventually and be formed The mechanical property of component.Especially for the complex component in aerospace field, lightweight and high-intensitive requirement are increasingly tight It is severe, although the increasing material manufacturings such as fusion sediment technique can significantly save raw material, the difficulty of part manufacturing is reduced, it is made Poor product mechanical property is also to limit the main reason for it in industry develops.
In basis material be added continuous fiber reinforcement phase, formed two-phase or and its above composite material, can reach Higher specific strength, specific modulus, and the molding part of this material have preferable designability, toughness, impact resistance and Fatigue performance.It is large range of to use composite wood in order to reach light-weighted design requirement in aerospace field Material, but its forming process suffers from the restriction of die shape, it is difficult to mold complex contour structures.For continuous fiber The thermoplastic composite of enhancing forms, and has the thermoplastic composite 3D printing of scholar and enterprise development continuous fiber reinforcement Method and apparatus.Mark Forged company of the U.S. develops the continuous fiber 3D printer [WO of Mark series 2014197732], fiber separates laying, fiber-resin interface, interface layer associativity with thermoplastic matrix in print procedure Can be poor, although the comprehensive performance in remaining all directions cannot reach higher having preferable mechanical property along machine direction Standard;A kind of continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite material of the colleges and universities such as Nihon University, Tokyo Institute of Technology scholar's joint research and developments 3D printing method, fibre resin blend method is more simple, fiber be not blended sufficiently with resin i.e. by extruder head directly squeeze Out, since extruder head tip is to the squeezing action of mixture, fiber is distributed in resin surface, and fiber in track after molding Volume content is smaller.Xi'an Communications University Tian little Yong et al. has developed continuous fiber enhancing composite material print head [CN201410325650.3] and multistage wire feed print head [CN201510633569.6], the former print head design method is more Uniqueness, print head inside are equipped with hollow screw, and fiber is passed through by hollow channel, along fiber week after screw rod drive molten resin downlink It being wrapped to by fiber, resin has more uniform distribution in final traces, but its fibrous inside tow is not mixed with resin, Dry fibers gap is formed after molding in entity, influences the mechanical property of component;The multistage wire feed print head structure is more Complexity, the mixing of multiple material makes its shaped component have preferable toughness, but its fibre bundle is in every grade of melt chamber and matrix Only simple contact mixing, since the viscosity of molten resin is larger, it is difficult to so that it is sufficiently infiltrated the fibre bundle of all directions, meanwhile, When fiber moves in multi-stage pipeline, due to friction, extruding force is unevenly distributed in pipeline, causes the part point of fibre bundle Fork is broken and blocks and squeeze out pipeline, finally makes fibrous fracture and influence forming process, secondly, different high performance resins has Different fusing points, wherein 200 DEG C nearly with the melting point difference of polyether-ether-ketone of polylactic acid, the heat transfer effect of neighboring chambers also will affect base The normal condition of body material.There are also several about continuous fiber reinforced composites 3D printing method both at home and abroad or sets Standby relevant report, principle are similar with above-mentioned report.
In conclusion the 3D printing method of existing continuous fiber reinforced composites has the following problems:
1) when leaving the factory, surface active groups are only adapted to the impregnation process with thermosetting resin to each fiber.? When untreated fiber being blended with molten thermoplastic resin using simple measure, it is difficult to infiltrate fiber sufficiently with resin, This causes the fiber-resin interface of component poor.
2) big bunch fiber is band-like in flattening, and existing 3D printing method is difficult with big bunch fiber, and small bunch fiber Shaping speed is slow in forming process, surface quality after molding, fibre resin volume fraction, fibre resin distribution situation, layer Between the performance indicators such as binding force be difficult to control.
3) existing method, due to the Local Bifurcation of fiber, fracture, be easy to cause fiber in cavity in print procedure Accumulation, blocking, impact forming process, meanwhile, fiber is in loose, irregular distribution in final traces, so that The load-carrying properties of component are affected.
