Description

Multiple material rapid prototyping shaped device and method
Technical field
The present invention relates to multiple material rapid prototyping shaped device and method, belong to rapid prototyping field shaping technique.
Background technology
Rapid prototyping moulding process is widely known by the people, and such as the Layered Manufacturing Technology using oneself to know, connects one layer of order heap with one layer Long-pending many layers gradually form goods, such as metal mold, prototype etc..A kind of variant of this method is referred to as SLA system, than As, Chinese patent " digital projection photocurable rapid shaping apparatus and method ", Publication No. CN 1850494A;And Chinese patent " method using the rapid shaping of shadow casting technique ", Publication No. CN100391721C;They use computer-controlled focusing UV laser scanning photopolymerization liquid polymers, such as the liquid level of photosensitive resin, optionally makes polymer polymerizing, forms first solid Body polymeric layer.This solid polymeric layer sinks in polymer pool subsequently, and such one layer of new liquid polymer layer covers solid Body layer.The second solid polymeric layer is produced, and so forth, until the solid repeatedly overlapped gathers again with laser polymerization process Compound layer forms required goods.
The another kind of variant of Layered Manufacturing Technology is referred to as selective laser sintering SLS technique, the most computer-controlled Laser beam makes loose compacted powder, and the composite bed selection area such as plastics, metal, pottery, wax etc. successively sinters, until whole system The whole construction complete of product.Chinese patent " the quick shaping system of a kind of direct manufacture metal parts of Publication No. CN1205951C System " think, if metal dust is the most melted in above-mentioned manufacture process, then the method should be separated with common laser sintering zone Coming, referred to as selective laser melts SLM;Also have in document and be called direct metal laser sintering Direct metal Laser sintering, DMLS;It is not added with SLS and SLM distinguishing, referred to as selective laser sintering herein.
Another variant of Layered manufacturing is referred to as 3 D-printing flash mould Three Dimensional Printing, 3DP technology, also referred to as 3-D spraying bonding, it is to be realized by computer-controlled ink jet printing device, such as, connect Continuous ejection-type or drop on demand type printing device, specifically have two kinds of ways of realization: in first kind of way, equipment refers to according to computer Binding agent stream is sprayed onto the selection area of ground floor loose particles from one or more nozzles by fixed pattern.Then, loose The second layer of grain is placed on the top of ground floor, and simultaneously along with the shape of ground floor, ink jet printer sprays binding agent selectively and flows to On second layer granule.Reheat or be dried after making binding agent solidification, required three-dimensional body can be formed.In the second way, The drop that ink-jet printer direct-injection goes out, such as photosensitive resin, be the most successively cured as three-dimensional shaped by the mode such as illumination, heating Body.
The another kind of variant of Layered Manufacturing Technology is referred to as laminated solid mass and manufactures LOM, and principle is to be layered geometry according to part Information cutting foil, the most frequently used raw material is paper, the synusia bonding one-tenth 3D solid that will be obtained.First layer overlay during manufacture Scribble the foil of PUR, then cut out this layer of profile with laser under the control of the computer, non-part portion all shred so that In removal.After completing when one layer, repave last layer foil, roll with roller and heat, to solidify adhesive, make newly spread Layer is strongly adhered on formed body, then cuts the profile of this layer, the most repeatedly until completion of processing, finally removes chopping portion Divide to obtain complete part.The realization of Layered manufacturing is in addition to above-mentioned major way, and also selective blending covers, and also referred to as welds heap Long-pending.
Traditional rapid prototyping molding and manufacture method there is problems in that
Product material is single: in prior art, mostly can not realize comprising multiple different functionalities material in same finished product Material.Part can realize the molding of many materials, and material category is the most extremely limited, and selective blending coating method can only use in the product The metal material that fusing point is close, fused deposition method FDM then can only use different types of hot melt high score in identical product Sub-material, but all cannot realize the variation of material type, such as metal-ceramic composite material.
