Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
The 3D printing method based on digital light processing (DLP) technology can transform liquid resin materials into complex 3D models. However, due to the limitations of digital micromirror device (DMD) specifications, the normal DLP 3D printing method (NDPM) cannot simultaneously process large-size and small-feature parts. Therefore, a scalable DLP 3D printing method (SDPM) was proposed. Different printing resolutions for a part were designed by changing the distance between the projector and the molding liquid level. A scalable DLP printer was built to realize the printing resolution requirements at different sizes. A series of experiments were performed. Firstly, the orthogonal experimental method was used, and the minimum and maximum projection distances were obtained as 20.5 cm and 30.5 cm, respectively. Accordingly, the layer thickness, exposure time, and waiting leveling time were 0.08 mm, 3 s, and 6 s and 0.08 mm, 7 s, and 10 s. Secondly, single-layer column feature printing was finished, which was shown to have two minimum printing resolutions of 101 mu m and 157 mu m at a projection distance of 20.5 cm and 30.5 cm. Thirdly, a shape accuracy test was conducted by using the SDPM. Compared with the NDPM, the shape accuracy of the small-feature round, diamond, and square parts was improved by 49%, 42%, and 2%, respectively. This study verified that the SDPM can build models with features demonstrating high local shape accuracy.
