Description

3D printing method and high-speed photo-curing 3D printing equipment
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of photo-curing 3D printing, and particularly relates to high-speed photo-curing 3D printing equipment and a 3D printing method.
Background
3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, is known as a new industrial revolution marking technology. 3D printing technology routes are numerous, wherein the photocuring 3D printing technology becomes a 3D printing mode with the highest potential due to the advantages of high precision, good surface quality and the like. In the field of photo-curing, a UV photo machine according to photo-curing molding is divided into a photo-curing 3D printing technology and is divided into a laser point light source (SLA for short) and a surface light source digital light projection (DLP for short), wherein the SLA molding mode is that an ultraviolet laser beam is scanned point by point on the surface of photosensitive resin according to each layered section information of the part under the control of a control system, so that a resin thin layer in a scanned area is cured by photo-polymerization reaction, and a thin layer of the part is formed. After one layer is solidified, the workbench is moved downwards by a layer thickness distance so that a new layer of liquid resin is coated on the surface of the original solidified resin, the surface of the resin with higher viscosity is scraped to be flat by the scraper, then the scanning processing of the next layer is carried out, the newly solidified layer is firmly bonded on the previous layer, and the process is repeated until the whole part is manufactured, and a three-dimensional entity prototype is obtained.
The surface light source is classified into a lower projection type and an upper projection type according to the position of the light source. The upper projection type UV ray machine is arranged on the upper surface, and the liquid of the printer is in a material pool, so that each layer of printing needs a scraper to enable the liquid to be leveled because of the leveling problem, and the whole printing efficiency is greatly reduced. The downward projection type surface UV ray machine is positioned below the material, and the printing platform realizes the forming of the three-dimensional object by moving layer by layer, so that the time of scraping knife and leveling is saved, and the printing mode with highest efficiency is realized.
While efficient relative to other printing modes, projection-type photo-curing 3D printing suffers from a serious problem: the release film has high adhesion and poor molding surface quality. The release film of the current DLP type printer mainly adopts a material with low surface energy to realize the release effect in a physical mode. The adhesion force can cause the polymeric layer to adhere to the release film interface, and the separation of the printing component from the release film interface requires mechanical motion intervention for peeling, such as pulling and sliding, and the resulting separation force is proportional to the area, which can damage the printing component and result in poor reliability, and the huge mechanical separation force limits the printable geometry and area, severely reducing the printing speed. Another problem is that with increasing the number of prints, the release film has a reduced release capability, increased adhesion and reduced material transmittance, so that the release film needs to be replaced once every one week of printing, and the release film does not cause any trouble when meeting the low-frequency printing requirements of laboratories or non-businesses, but for 3D printers in commercial scenes, frequent replacement of the release film causes problems such as reduced production efficiency, increased maintenance cost, unstable printing quality, and the like.
