1.The working principle of large-size polymer granular material 3D printer
The large-size polymer granular material 3D printer adopts a 3D printing process based on powder sintering technology. It first finely powders the polymer granules, and then sinters the powder layer by layer into a preset three-dimensional shape through computer operation. Because the materials used in this printer are highly resistant to temperature and abrasion, it can print complex shapes and structures that are difficult to achieve with traditional manufacturing methods.
2.Second, the application in aerospace
(1)Lightweight manufacturing: Equipment in the aerospace sector often needs to be lightweight to reduce fuel consumption and carbon emissions. Large-size polymer granular material 3D printers can realize the integrated manufacturing of parts by printing complex structural shapes, which greatly reduces the number of parts and the overall weight.
(2)Customized production: With this printer, customized production can be easily realized. Designers can design parts that meet specific requirements according to actual needs and realize personalized production of parts.
(3)Rapid prototyping: Prototyping is an important part of the aerospace industry. Large-size polymer pellet 3D printers can produce complex prototypes in a short time, which greatly shortens the product development cycle.
(4)Repair & Maintenance: Repair & Maintenance of aerospace equipment is an expensive and complex process. With this printer, damaged parts can be printed quickly and accurately, reducing repair costs and time.
3.Future development trends
With the continuous advancement of technology, large-size polymer granular 3D printers will be more widely used in the aerospace field. On the one hand, we can expect this printer to be able to print higher performance materials, and on the other hand, we can also expect this printer to be more intelligent and able to adapt to more complex manufacturing environments in the future. In addition, as environmental awareness increases, we can also expect this technology to enable greener production processes.
To sum up, large-size polymer pellet 3D printers have become an important tool in the aerospace field. With its unique advantages, it brings great convenience to aerospace lightweight manufacturing, customized production, rapid prototyping, and repair and maintenance. In the future, we have reason to believe that this technology will continue to drive the development of the aerospace field.
