Abstract

Fused deposition molding (FDM) technology is an important branch of rapid prototyping technology. It does not require a high working environment, the noise and the volume are also small, so it is very suitable for home, office and other occasions, and it has great prospects for development. The paper describes an industrial grade rapid prototyping of melt deposition, it uses the diameter of 1.75mm of the molding wire as consumables, and the design and processing accuracy is 0.2mm. The main structure comprises a spray head, an X-Y horizontal axis linkage mechanism and a Z shaft working platform. The X-axis can be slid on the X-axis, and the X-axis can be slid on the Y-axis rail through the X-axis rail bracket. This enables the X-Y axis linkage in the horizontal plane. At the same time the work platform selected high precision ball screw to drive, and the precision movement can be achieved on the Z axis guide rail. Control part chooses the MCS8031 microcontroller, it can achieve the drive and control of the stepper motor. Through the design, calculation and selection, as well as the improvement of the later, to achieve the design of basic structure and control system ,completed the accuracy requirements, and to achieve the desired objectives.
