3D打印的PEEK被认为是融合细丝制造（FFF）面临的最大挑战之一。在500°C的极端打印温度下，保持适当的环境，用于3D打印如此高级的热塑性和标准航空业的最爱。幸运的是3DGENCEis an industrial printer manufacturer with knowledge required to solve product development challenges.
By designing 3D printers to work with multiple modules, the Polish 3D printer manufacturer ensures that its machines can adapt to all the latest in the industry, across areas including transport, machinery manufacturing and automotive.
3DGENCE’s latest system, theINDUSTRY F340，是专业的双重挤出3D打印机。配备三个可互换modules, the INDUSTRY F340 is capable of printing at temperatures between 190°C and 500°C. The system’s multiplemodulescovers the broad range of 3D printable thermoplastics from standard PLA and ABS, through个人电脑to robust PEEK filament.
该行业F340是许多公司研讨会的永久性固定装置Sebring，一项高端赛车运动的制造商。
The INDUSTRY F340 3D printer has also been put to work in development of 3DGence’s forthcoming DOUBLE 3D printer, dramatically cutting down the expected time to market.
3D printing PEEK on the INDUSTRY F340
工业F340的HTMAX是在最高500°C的温度下用于3D打印的模块，用于打印高性能热塑料（如PEEK）。次级挤出机中的支撑材料是专用的脱离材料。头部的两个喷嘴的标准直径为0.4毫米。
In a real test of the INDUSTRY F340’s PEEK 3D printing abilities, it has been used at 3DGence to make components for a new line of 3D printers.
Due to the high mechanical performance of the plastic, and excellent temperature resistance, 3DGence R&D made a range的未来房子的功能原型组件E 3D printer. Development included manufacturing of the tooling for a thermoformed hotend cover used for internal tests of the 3D printer.
最重要的因素的this development process was that production time was significantly shortened. Commenting on the development process Mateusz Sidorowicz, Marketing Manager at 3DGence, explains, “It allows us to check how the parts will fit into the product and find any imperfections much sooner and cheaper.”
The part was produced by the thermoforming process where a sheet of material is heated to 180°C. After that the sheet is stretched over the PEEK part and vacuumed.
Traditionally, the R&D team would have relied on outsourced MDF or aluminum parts which is expensive, and can take up to 6 weeks for turnaround. Sidorowicz confirmed that, in addition to saving money, the 3D printed PEEK parts allowed 3DGence to build封面DOUBLE 3D printer prototype in just one week.
Driving fire trucks
In active service at Bocar fire engines, the INDUSTRY F340 has further proved its industrial worth through the production of a number of critical engine components. In one example,Bocar3D使用ABS打印了消防车发动机的真空歧管原型。
3D printed by the INDUSTRY F340’sPRO打印头模块，可以将真空歧管安装在车辆上，以测试管子的拟合和人体工程学。
在执行此功能测试时，Bocar能够在生产过程中节省时间和金钱，创建可转让给的设计castmetal part.
Inside the INDUSTRY F340
The INDUSTRY F340 3D printer has a build volume of 260 x 300 x 340 mm (10.24×11.81×13.39 in). The chamber can be heated to temperatures up to 85°C (185°F) ensuring the conformity of polymer 3D prints.
箴模块行业F340打印头的基地,used in Bocar’s industrial application. Capable of print temperatures between 190°C and 265°C, it is suitable for use with common ABS and PLA filaments, PET and Nylon. The support material extruder works with HIPS and water soluble BVOH.
The HT module (short for high temperature) is a temperature upgrade on the PRO, 3D printing between 265°C – 340°C. This makes it suitable for working with强壮碳酸盐聚合物，例如PC，PC-ABS，PC-ESD。该头可用的支持材料是dedicatedbreakaway support material.
In the HTmax, as demonstrated by the company’s DOUBLE use case, 3D print temperature reaches top of the range of INDUSTRY F340’s capabilities. The nozzle can reach a max temperatureif的500°C and is used to print high-performance thermoplastics like PEEK.
附加功能
Working within the bracket of polymers with a higher melting point, the INDUSTRY F340 is equipped with a number of features to help assure the reliability of the process and to provide the safety for the users.
A specially developed air filter separates odours created in the plastic melting process, and maintains a chemical-free workplace.
In addition to an actively heated print chamber, theINDUSTRY F340also has a heated filament chamber to protect moisture sensitive filaments by limiting the humidity.
To monitor the quality of a 3D print the INDUSTRY F340 comes equipped with a Smart Material Manager for “intelligent process control.” An integrated electronic process, the Smart Material Manager is composed of four parts:
- An NFC reader for recognizing loaded material type
- 材料重量控制系统
- Fully automatic material loading system
- 流控制传感器，以监视材料沉积
