A New 3D Wax Printer and its Control System

Article Preview

Abstract:

The paper introduces a new 3D wax printer, including its technical proposal, integral structure and control system. The raw material of this 3D printer is a mixture which is composed by wax, cyclohexane and alcohol. Raw material is transmitted to nozzle by a transmission device. The raw material which is squeezed out from nozzle deposits into product on the working platform. The paper also introduces the motion control of motor which is the hardcore of control system.
