Background
The birth of 3D printers in the mid-80's of the 20 th century was the first invention invented by american scientists. The 3D printer is a device that produces a real three-dimensional object by using a 3D printing technology, and its basic principle is to use special consumables (glue, resin or powder, etc.) to bond and form each layer of powder by deposition of an adhesive according to a three-dimensional model designed in advance by a computer, and finally print out a 3D entity. The rapid forming technology has the advantages of high processing speed and low cost, and is widely applied to model making in the product development stage. 3D printing is one of the rapid prototyping techniques, which first converts an article into 3D data, and then applies a bondable material such as powdered metal or plastic to cut and print layer by layer. Mold fabrication, industrial design for building models, is now evolving into product fabrication, resulting in "direct digital manufacturing". A variety of different rapid prototyping processes have been developed, such as Stereolithography (SLA), laminated Object Manufacturing (LOM), fused Deposition Modeling (FDM), selective Laser Sintering (SLS), three-dimensional printing (3 DP), surface exposure printing, and the like.
In order to facilitate the user to control the printing progress, the printing progress or the printing time needs to be displayed on the printer. In the prior art, as disclosed in patent application publication No. CN110815812A, the most accurate way to estimate the printing time is to plan the printing path first, and then calculate the time required for completing the entire path according to the set parameters of printing speed, printer acceleration, etc. in combination with the motion control algorithm of the main board. The process of estimating the printing time is computationally expensive, resulting in very long slicing times and only showing the time the model needs to be printed. The progress of printing, or the remaining printing time, cannot be displayed in the printer.

The printing starting control is used for triggering the model to start printing; the print instruction may refer to a click operation of the user for starting the print control.
As an example, as shown in fig. 2, if the user clicks the "print" icon on the print page 201, the printing device displays a model selection page 202 in response to detecting a model selection instruction for the print control 2011 on the initial print page 201 on the display device, where model files 1 to 4 may be displayed on the model selection page 202; if the user clicks the "refresh" icon on the model selection page 202, the printing apparatus acquires a refresh instruction for a refresh control 2021 on the model selection page 202, refreshes the model file on the model selection page 202, and if a new file exists, displays the model file 5-model file 8 in the page 202A; if the user clicks the "next page" icon on the model selection page 202, the printing device obtains a next page instruction of a control 2022 for the next page on the model selection page 202, refreshes the model file on the model selection page 202, and displays a new file if the new file exists, or displays a blank page if the new file does not exist, or displays a blank page in the page 202B; if the user clicks a model file icon on the model selection page 202, such as a "model file 2" icon, the printing device acquires a selection instruction for the model file 2 on the model selection page 202, and displays a printing start page 203 of the model file 2 corresponding to the selection instruction; if the user clicks the "start printing" icon on the printing start page 203, the printing apparatus acquires that a printing instruction for the start printing control 2031 on the printing start page 203 is detected, and starts printing the model corresponding to the model file 2 on the printing start page 203.
And 102, controlling the heating of the printing head and the heating bed according to the first target heating temperature and the second target heating temperature.
In some embodiments, the printing device may control the print head and the heat bed to heat to the first target temperature and the heat bed to the second target temperature based on the first target heating temperature and the second target heating temperature. The temperature of the print head and the heat bed required to print different models may be different, the first target heating temperature typically being the temperature to which the print head needs to be brought, and the second target heating temperature typically being the temperature to which the heat bed needs to be brought.
And 103, in response to the fact that the printing head and the heating bed are heated to the corresponding temperatures, controlling a printing model according to the file information.
In some embodiments, the printing device may control the printing model in accordance with the file information in response to determining that the print head, thermal bed, are heated to the corresponding temperatures. The file information includes information required by the printing model, and the printing model can be controlled according to the file information of the model file.
And 104, in the process of printing the model, determining the printing progress of the model according to the number of the preset information of the read file information and the total number of the preset information of the file information of the model file.
In some embodiments, the printing apparatus may determine a printing progress of the model according to the number of the preset information of the file information that has been read and the total number of the preset information of the file information of the model file in printing the model. The preset information comprises coordinate information of printing points and occupied space information of a model file, and the occupied space information of the model file refers to the size of the model file. The printing apparatus may multiply the ratio between the number of preset information of the read document information and the total number by 100% and then serve as the printing progress of the model.
In some optional implementation manners of some embodiments, the determining a printing progress of the model according to the number of the preset information types of the read file information and the total number of the preset information types of the file information of the model file includes:
traversing the total number of coordinate information of printing points in the file information, wherein the coordinate information of the printing points is a coordinate point of the printing head relative to the printing platform; determining a ratio between the number of printing dots for which printing has been performed and the total number of printing dots; and taking the ratio as the printing progress of the model.
And traversing the coordinate information of the printing points in the file information to obtain the total amount of the coordinate information of the printing points. The number of printing dots for which printing has been performed may be the number of printing dots for which printing has been performed, plus 1 printing dot being performed; or the number of already executed printing points plus 1 printing point number to be executed; it may also be the number of print points that have already been executed, the print head being in a gap where execution of the next coordinate point has not yet begun at the present time. The executed printing point, that is, the printing head has moved the coordinate point with respect to the printing platform, and the part of the model corresponding to the executed printing point has been printed.
As an example, the three-dimensional printer may first traverse the total number of the coordinate information of the printing dots, and determine a ratio of the number of the printing dots that have been read to the total number of the printing dots according to the number of the dots of the coordinates that have been read, as the printing progress of the model.
Because the model to be printed may be irregularly shaped, the progress of the model being calculated is inaccurate and the error may be very different depending on the number of layers of the model that need to be printed and the number of layers of the model that have already been printed. The printing time of the lower layer is obviously longer than that of the upper layer, so that the calculation error of the printing precision is larger, and the printing progress of the model is calculated by utilizing the number of the read printing points and the total number of the printing points, so that the calculation error caused by the irregular shape of the model can be avoided, and the calculation result is more accurate.
In some optional implementations of some embodiments, the determining the printing progress of the model according to the number of the preset information of the read file information and the total number of the preset information of the file information of the model file includes:
acquiring the acquired occupied space information of the model file and the read occupied space information of the file information of the model file; determining the proportion of the occupied space information of the read file information to the occupied space information of the model file; and taking the proportion as the printing progress of the model. The occupied space information of the file information of the model file is the size of the model file, and may be 5000kb, for example.
As an example, the entire size of the model file is obtained, and then the size of the content of the read file is determined according to the specific size of the content of the read file, and the proportion of the size of the content of the read file to the total size of the model file is used as the printing progress of the model. The model file comprises codes of a line and a line, and when a line is read, a line of instructions is executed.
Generally, the printing progress of the model needs to be displayed in real time, while the existing method needs to be subjected to a large amount of calculation, and a lot of information needs to be acquired, so that the calculation time is long, and the printing progress is calculated by utilizing the size of the model file and the size of the content of the read file, so that the calculation time can be effectively shortened, and the use experience of a user is improved.
In some optional implementations of some embodiments, controlling the printing model according to the file information includes:
controlling the printing head to move relative to the printing platform according to the coordinate information of the printing points; and in response to determining that the movement of the coordinate points corresponding to the coordinate information of all the printing points is completed, completing the printing of the model.
As an example, when printing the model, the movement of the print head relative to the print platform is controlled according to the coordinate points. In the moving process, the printing platform can be fixed, and only the printing head moves; or the printing platform can move, and the printing head is fixed; the printing platform and the printing head can move simultaneously; wherein, the printing head ejects the silk material, namely forms the model needing to be printed. So when all coordinate movements are completed, the model printing is completed.
And 105, controlling the display device to display the printing progress.
In some embodiments, the printing device may control the display device to display the printing progress.
In some optional implementations of some embodiments, the printing progress display method may further include:
determining the time when the model is printed according to the time when the model is printed;
calculating the remaining time required to be printed according to the time printed by the model;
controlling the display device to display the printed time and/or the remaining time.
The time when the model printing starts may be "a printing start instruction is received"; or "in response to determining that the print head and the heat bed are heated to the corresponding temperatures, controlling the printing model according to the file information"; it may also be the time when the printing apparatus extrudes the consumable to print the first printed dot. The time when the model is printed can be the time from extruding the consumable material out of the printing equipment to printing the first printing point to the current printing point; as an example, the number of printed dots is determined, and the average printing time is obtained by dividing the time the model has been printed by the number of printed dots; subtracting the number of the printed printing points from the total number of the printing points to obtain the number of the residual printing points; and multiplying the average printing time by the number of the remaining printing points to obtain the remaining time needing to be printed.
Wherein, the printing device is in communication connection with the terminal device, and after controlling the display device to display the printing progress, the method further comprises: and responding to the fact that the printing device is in communication connection with the terminal device, and sending the printing progress to the terminal device to enable the terminal device to display the printing progress.
The terminal equipment comprises a mobile phone, a computer, intelligent wearable equipment and the like. The terminal device may be connected to the printing device by wire or wirelessly. The terminal equipment displays the printing progress, so that a user beside the terminal equipment can quickly view the printing progress of the printing equipment.
In some optional implementations of some embodiments, the total amount of coordinate information of the printing points included in the model file and the number of the read printing points are respectively input into a preset time estimation model to determine the remaining printing time of the model file; the time estimation model is obtained by training according to the total amount of the coordinate information of the printing points of each model file and the printing time corresponding to each model file.
As an example, inputting the total number of coordinates included in a model file and the number of coordinates that have been read into a preset time estimation model to determine the remaining printing time of the model file; the time estimation model is obtained by training according to the total number of the coordinates of each model file and the printing time corresponding to the model file. By using the trained model to calculate the average time to print for each coordinate, the remaining time to print can be calculated more accurately. If the number of total coordinates is 10000, the number of printing dots that have been read is 5000, and 50min has been spent, the remaining time is about 50min.
Some embodiments of the present disclosure disclose a method for displaying a printing progress, first, in response to a printing device receiving a printing start instruction, obtaining file information of a model file corresponding to the printing start instruction, where the file information includes a number of preset information, a first target heating temperature of a printing head, and a second target heating temperature of a hot bed; secondly, controlling the heating of the printing head and the heating bed according to the first target heating temperature and the second target heating temperature; then, in response to the fact that the printing head and the heating bed are heated to the corresponding temperatures, controlling a printing model according to the file information; then, in the process of printing the model, determining the printing progress of the model according to the number of the preset information of the read file information and the total number of the preset information of the file information of the model file; and finally, controlling the display equipment to display the printing progress.
