Description

一种双喷头混杂连续纤维增强复合材料3D打印装置及方法A dual-nozzle hybrid continuous fiber reinforced composite material 3D printing device and method

技术领域technical field

本发明属于3D打印技术领域,具体涉及一种双喷头混杂连续纤维增强复合材料3D打印装置及方法。The invention belongs to the technical field of 3D printing, and in particular relates to a 3D printing device and method of a dual-nozzle hybrid continuous fiber reinforced composite material.

背景技术Background technique

3D打印技术是采用层层累加的原理,每层按照既定的打印路径铺放材料,最终堆叠成形来制造三维零件。目前将3D打印技术应用于纤维增强树脂基复合材料已经成为一种新兴的复合材料制造工艺,利用3D打印技术打印出的连续纤维增强复合材料制品,不仅具备高强度、高刚度、质量轻等特点,而且可以控制纤维的分布方向,从而控制制品的性能。3D printing technology adopts the principle of layer-by-layer accumulation. Each layer lays materials according to the established printing path, and finally stacks and forms to manufacture three-dimensional parts. At present, the application of 3D printing technology to fiber reinforced resin matrix composites has become an emerging composite material manufacturing process. Continuous fiber reinforced composite materials printed by 3D printing technology not only have the characteristics of high strength, high stiffness, and light weight, etc. , and can control the distribution direction of fibers, thereby controlling the performance of products.

连续纤维增强复合材料3D打印由于受限于打印过程中纤维的连续特性,目前仅能实现简单构件的打印,很难满足一些复杂结构的打印要求;同时打印的零件通常只含有一种连续纤维,因此通常无法满足多种性能要求。混杂纤维增强树脂基复合材料是指两种或两种以上纤维增强同一种树脂基体的复合材料,这种复合材料充分发挥了各种纤维的优势,除了具有单一纤维增强复合材料的特点外,还具有一些其它的特殊性能,克服了单种材料无法满足多种性能要求的缺点;此外,纤维的多样性也增加了复合材料的可设计性,降低了成本,大大拓展了其使用范围。3D printing of continuous fiber reinforced composite materials is limited by the continuous characteristics of fibers during the printing process. Currently, only simple components can be printed, and it is difficult to meet the printing requirements of some complex structures. At the same time, the printed parts usually only contain one kind of continuous fibers. As a result, multiple performance requirements are often not met. Hybrid fiber reinforced resin matrix composite material refers to a composite material in which two or more fibers reinforced the same resin matrix. This composite material fully utilizes the advantages of various fibers. In addition to the characteristics of a single fiber reinforced composite material, it also With some other special properties, it overcomes the disadvantage that a single material cannot meet various performance requirements; in addition, the diversity of fibers also increases the designability of composite materials, reduces costs, and greatly expands its scope of use.

连续纤维增强树脂基复合材料3D打印技术已经实现,但现有的连续纤维增强3D打印机只能打印单一连续纤维,还没有可打印混杂连续纤维构件的多喷头混杂连续纤维增强3D打印装置公开。The continuous fiber reinforced resin matrix composite material 3D printing technology has been realized, but the existing continuous fiber reinforced 3D printer can only print a single continuous fiber, and there is no multi-nozzle hybrid continuous fiber reinforced 3D printing device that can print hybrid continuous fiber components.

3) the synchronous belt (23) drives the first nozzle (9) to move upwards continuously, and the second nozzle (9) stops when reaching the bottom of the printing module; then the printing module moves upwards by a distance of one layer, the printing module starts to move in a plane, the second nozzle (9) starts to print the second layer of fiber composite material, after the second layer is printed, the second nozzle (9) moves upwards by 2mm under the driving of the synchronous belt (23), the shearing sliding block (16) moves to enable the scissors to be closed to shear the fiber tows (11) of the second nozzle (9), and then the shearing sliding block (16) moves again to enable the scissors to be opened;
4) the synchronous belt (23) drives the second nozzle (9) to continuously move upwards, the first nozzle (9) moves downwards, the first nozzle (9) stops when reaching the bottom of the printing module, then the printing module moves upwards by a layer distance, the printing module starts to perform plane movement, the first nozzle (9) starts to perform third-layer printing, after the layer is printed, the first nozzle (9) moves upwards by 2mm under the driving of the synchronous belt (23), the shearing sliding block (16) moves to enable the scissors to be closed to shear the fiber tows (11) in the first nozzle (9), and then the shearing sliding block (16) moves reversely to enable the scissors to be opened;
5) and (4) circulating the steps 1) to 4) until the printing of the whole component is completed.
