The biological scaffold prepared by the extrusion type 3D printing technology has good biocompatibility, and the size and the shape of the pores of the scaffold are more in line with the migration, proliferation and differentiation of planted cells, so that an excellent environment can be provided for repairing tissue defects.
The medical calcium phosphate ceramic material is used for clinical tests of bone substitutes for ear and ossicular defects, fillers for middle-section and calcaneus bone defects of four limbs, fillers for high-position tibia bone defects and the like by students at present, and the medical calcium phosphate ceramic material has beneficial effects. The consistency of the medical ceramic slurry plays a decisive role in the forming effect of the extrusion printing technology: when the consistency of the slurry is too large, the slurry cannot be extruded; when the consistency of the slurry is too low, the product will collapse during the forming process, and the design requirements of the product size cannot be met. Therefore, for the extruded 3D printing formed bone scaffold material, it is very necessary to explore its proper consistency. However, the high-consistency pasty ceramic slurry in the market is mostly measured by adopting an advanced rotary rheometer, and the high-consistency pasty ceramic slurry is expensive, usually 30-50 ten thousand yuan, and cannot be released for small and micro enterprises.

Therefore, raw material waste is caused, and the working hour investment is increased. Therefore, it is necessary to design and invent a consistency testing method and device which can not only effectively measure the consistency of medical ceramic slurry, but also save raw materials and labor time and investment cost.

the ceramic slurry with the penetration value of 7mm is used as extrusion type 3D printing slurry, and the printing result shows that the slurry with the consistency can be extruded under the same air pressure extrusion condition, but a smooth and continuous straight line cannot be printed due to the fact that the consistency of the slurry is too low. See figure 9 for details.
The results of the above embodiments are combined to show that when the needle penetration degree of the stirred medical ceramic paste slurry is too large, the consistency of the medical ceramic slurry is small, and under the same printing condition, the extrusion type 3D printing can be extruded, but the forming effect is not good, and the paste is in a shape of a lump; when the needle penetration of the medical ceramic paste slurry is too small, the paste ceramic slurry has high consistency, and the extrusion type 3D printing cannot be extruded under the same printing condition; when the penetration value of the medical paste ceramic slurry is more than 3mm and less than or equal to 6mm, the slurry can print uniform and smooth continuous fine line lines, and the forming effect is good. After the data are obtained, when the consistency of the ceramic slurry is judged to be proper or not in the follow-up process, the consistency of the ceramic slurry is not required to be judged to be used for printing or not by printing, but the penetration value is measured by adopting the device and the measuring method, when the penetration value is more than 3mm and less than or equal to 6mm, the printing can be directly used, otherwise, the printing cannot be used, and the re-allocation is required.
