One less material and another environmental environment.
If you are a user of the 3D printer, you must be like me and you have a lot of things you want to complain about the equipment tray. After all, a printer can last for several years, while a consumable roll can be used in a few days. Over time, the machine is always the same machine, but the platforms of thrown materials are increasingly stacked, and in the end they can only be treated as garbage or waste, which takes up space and waste resources.
If 3D printing is a low carbon and environmental technology that respects the environment, then obviously, the equipment set is not included, at least not yet.
For a long time, we used all-in-one plastic wire trays from different specifications. Each manufacturer has its own design style. Some have larger holes, some have smaller holes, some use hollow models, some have patterns and even have transparent materials. The problem is that the printers models are different and that the size of suitable material trays is also different, and there is no unified standard in the industry so far. This means that many players had to confirm the specific parameters of the material tray on several occasions when purchasing new materials, otherwise it may not be compatible when they buy.
Later, some manufacturers began to replace the plastic trays with more environmentally friendly paper wire trays, which we can call for a whileSecond generation 3D 3D printing material consumption disc. However, its popularity is limited by the compatibility problems of the multicolored material change system of the printer and the possibility of deformation or absorption of humidity of the paper wire trays. In addition, this generation of material trays is always a disposable product. Most of them will always be rejected after use and cannot be reused, and the problem of the accumulation of waste bins is still not resolved.
By looking at the first and second generation material plates, it is not difficult to find several basic pain points:
1 and 1 Lack of unified standards: The size and design of the materials of materials of different brands are different. Users must confirm additional adaptability when replacing materials, which increases the cost and disadvantages of use.
2 Difficult to reuse: Most of them cannot be recycled, which leads to a waste of resources and environmental pollution.
3 and 3 Compatibility problems: Although the paper wire trays are more environmentally friendly, they may not be well suited in certain multicolored printing systems, further limiting their promotion.
These questions force us to think if there will be better solutions for 3D printed equipment sets in the future?
The answer is:Removable wire disc。
In other words, as long as there are some reusable wire discs, we can print them without restrictions. In the future, we just have to buy wires without a coil. This not only saves money, but also releases more space, allowing users to place more machines in limited places, improve efficiency and create greater value. In addition, this method is also conducive to the promotion of the standardization of metal discs, allowing manufacturers of materials to focus on the manufacture of materials without having to worry about the problem of adapting the metal disc from various specifications.
Currently, we have noticed that some equipment manufacturers, including Tuozhu, have started to promote reusable low temperature materials. Compared to traditional disposable materials, the price of the wire without a coil is about 7 cheaper yuan. At the same time, as a manufacturer of 3D printing head consumables, Sanlu recently announced that it was implementing itsThe third generation of removable wire discPromote industry more to develop towards standardization and environmental protection.
It is understood that there are two types of reusable new generation reusable coils launched by Sanlu: ordinary metal discs, adapted to common consumables such as PLA; Metal discs at high temperature, heat -resistant temperatures up to 110 ° C and are more suitable for engineering quality materials. Not long ago, Sanlu published engineering quality materials such as PA12-CF, PEEK, PA6-GF, etc., which will be gradually improved towards high temperature linear discs.
In addition, there are many strengths in the design of the material tray. First of all, it solves the compatibility problem, optimizes the size of the coil to φ200mm × φ55mm, ensuring perfect compatibility with AMS / AMS Lite of Tuozhu, and at the same time adapts to the assembly of most consumables without disc on the market.
Then, this also allows the switching of different consumables at any time, which really makes the tray of detachable and easy to use wire. Thanks to the unique design of the opening structure on the material tray and the free cable fasteners, it can be easily replaced, regardless of the amount of material used, which improves the convenience of use.
In the past, we did not know why some materials of materials had so many small holes on it. It was not until later that we used a consumable drying box that we understood if these fine holes were present on the material tray, which directly affected the drying speed and the consumable drying effect. Especially for certain materials with strong water absorption, such as TPU, nylon, etc.
In addition, the San Green removable wire tank is also equipped with a weight scale, which allows users to intuitively visualize the remaining amount of consumables. In addition to marking the print temperature and the temperature recall of the platform on label paper, the temperature resistance of the metal plate is also added to remind users to avoid deformation of the coil due to overheating, further improving the safety of use.
Finally, we believe that 3D printing of detachable material plates will become the general trend, and more and more manufacturers will follow up in the future.
However, what should I do if the mountains of waste platforms in the past were?
Has anyone recycled it?
