Before successively being printed from the bottom to top in step 4, the first basis of data processing equipment described in step 1 pre-establishes Gas flow and wire feed rate database, and in conjunction with the thickness of the preset shape layer, to the base gas of air supply pipe The wire feed rate of flow and the wire feeder is determined;
The gas flow and wire feed rate databases contain the wire feed speed needed for the shape layer of a variety of different thickness Degree and base gas flow;The base gas flow is 5ml/min~500ml/min, and the wire feed of the wire feeder is fast Degree is bigger, and the base gas flow is bigger;
In horizontal stamp pad moving process described in step 401 and step 4022, the speed detection unit is sent to described The wire feed rate of silk device is measured in real time and by institute's detection information synchronous driving to wire feed rate controller, and the wire feed is fast Controller is spent according to the wire feed rate of the predetermined wire feeder and combines speed detection unit institute detection information to sending Silk driving mechanism is controlled, and keeps the wire feed rate of the wire feeder identical as predetermined wire feed rate;
Before carrying out bottom printing in step 401, the gas flow controller is examined according to detection of gas flow rate unit Measurement information and by control flow control valve the gas flow of air supply pipe is adjusted to the base gas flow;In step 401 In bottom print procedure, the gas flow of the air supply pipe is the base gas flow;
It carries out printing in step 4022 and synchronize in temperature control process, the gas flow controller is according to detection of gas flow rate Unit institute's detection information simultaneously combines distance detection unit institute detecting distance information, and by controlling flow control valve to air supply pipe Gas flow is increased and decreased adjustment;Also, the distance between the outlet of the nozzle and horizontal stamp pad are bigger, the air supply pipe Gas flow it is bigger.
The above method, it is characterized in that:In horizontal stamp pad moving process described in step 401 and step 4022, the quilt The wire feed rate for processing silk material is 0.1m/min~10m/min, a diameter of 0.02mm~10mm of the processed silk material;It is described The diameter for being processed silk material is bigger, and wire feed rate is slower;And the material fusing point for being processed silk material is higher, wire feed rate is slower;
In step 4 from the bottom to top successively print before, by between the melting end of processed silk material and horizontal stamp pad away from From preset wire feed height is adjusted to, the wire feed height is 5mm~1000mm;It is successively printed from the bottom to top in step 4 In the process, the fusing end position for being processed silk material is motionless.
