THE INVESTIGATION OF HEAT FLOW IN THE DELTA BOT FDM 3D-PRINTER WITH ISOLATED HEAT CHAMBER
Abstract
Heat flows in a closed chamber of a 3D-printer with delta bot kinematics are investigated. A computer simulation of the distribution of temperatures and air flows in the Autodesk CFD software package was carried out. A uniform heating zone is determined in the 3D-printer chamber with a temperature, that is equal to the low limit of the temperature of the ABS plastic injection mold. The necessity of preheating the printer camera to avoid the effect of delamination of layers is shown. The analysis of the possibility of heating the 3d printer to the upper limit of the mold temperature (70 °C) was carried out.
