Release Time : 2024-11-27
FDM 3D Printing Stratasys F900 technology mainly relies on a series of precise technologies and process controls to achieve ultra-high precision model printing.
1. Choose the right material
High-precision materials: Choose materials with high precision and low shrinkage, such as ABS-M30i, PC, etc., which can maintain better dimensional stability during printing.
Material properties: Understand the physical and chemical properties of the material and choose materials suitable for specific applications to ensure the accuracy and durability of the printed model.
2. Optimize printing parameters
Layer thickness setting: Select a smaller layer thickness to improve the surface finish and dimensional accuracy of the printed model.
Printing speed: Appropriately reduce the printing speed to ensure that the deposition and cooling of each layer are more uniform, reducing deformation and warping.
Temperature control: Accurately control the print head temperature and the build platform temperature to ensure that the material can be accurately melted and deposited.
3. Precision calibration and maintenance
Print head calibration: Regularly calibrate the print head to ensure that its distance and angle with the build platform are accurate to avoid printing deviation.
Mechanical parts maintenance: Regularly check and maintain the mechanical parts of the printer (such as guide rails, transmission system, etc.) to ensure smooth operation and reduce errors.
4. Build platform and support structure
Build platform leveling: Ensure that the build platform is completely leveled to avoid warping or deformation of the model during printing.
Support structure design: Optimize the support structure design to reduce the use of support materials, while ensuring that the model is stable during printing to avoid deformation.
5. Post-processing technology
Surface treatment: Use tools such as sandpaper and polishing agent to surface treat the model, remove layer lines and unevenness, and improve surface finish.
Chemical treatment: Use chemical solvents (such as acetone vapor smoothing) to treat the model to further improve accuracy and surface quality.
6. Printing strategy optimization
Slicing software settings: Use professional slicing software (such as Stratasys GrabCAD Print) to optimize slicing settings, such as fill density, fill pattern, support generation, etc., to improve the accuracy and strength of the model.
Multi-part printing: For complex multi-part models, optimize the printing order and support structure to reduce printing time and material waste.
7. Environmental control
Temperature and humidity control: Maintain stable temperature and humidity in the printing environment to avoid the impact of environmental factors on printing accuracy.
Static electricity and dust control: Use static electricity elimination equipment and air filters to reduce the impact of static electricity and dust on printing.
Through the above measures, FDM 3D Printing Stratasys F900 technology can achieve ultra-high-precision model printing, suitable for a variety of high-precision and high-demand application scenarios.
