Background

The development of the 3D printing technology is mature, the continuous fiber composite material additive manufacturing technology is gradually developed, but the problem of weak interlayer performance is still not well solved.

In addition, the mode of presetting the fiber rods among the layers has higher realization difficulty due to the limitation of the processing technology.

In one embodiment of the invention, the paying-off roller rotates in the positive direction by outputting a first control signal to the wire transmission structure, and the spray head starts to print; and the first fiber wire rod discharged by the pay-off roller enters the spray head after being soaked by the molten resin material in the first material liquid pool, is printed out from the spray head and is laid in a gap between the guide needles on the forming substrate, and the steps are repeated until the composite fiber wire rods with the preset number of layers are laid to form the fiber composite material.

Step 302, outputting third control information to the first driving structure, and controlling the spray head to move to a position where the projection of the spray head on the molding substrate does not coincide with the guide needle.

Optionally, the method for manufacturing the continuous fiber composite material additive material through interlayer of the embodiment of the invention further comprises the step of

And pulling out the guide needle from the fiber composite material through the guide needle removing plate, driving a second fiber wire soaked by the resin material to penetrate through the fiber composite material along with the guide needle and stay in the fiber composite material, and forming a composite fiber wire continuously penetrating through the fiber composite material in a direction vertical to the interlayer.

The interlayer through continuous fiber composite material additive manufacturing method solves the problem that the fiber composite material cannot form continuous through fibers vertical to the interlayer direction, so that interlayer performance is weak, and is less in limitation of processing technology and simple to operate.

Optionally, the method further comprises:

and outputting a fourth control signal to the wire transmission structure, enabling the wire transmission structure to respond to the fourth control signal, and adjusting the tension on the first fiber by the wire transmission structure when the tension on the first fiber wire is not in a preset range.

According to the interlayer penetrating continuous fiber composite material additive manufacturing equipment disclosed by the embodiment of the invention, the tension on the first fiber wire can be ensured to be always in a range suitable for being soaked by the resin material by controlling the wire transmission structure. It is possible to obtain a composite fiber wire of high strength and to avoid the first fiber wire from being damaged or broken due to excessive tension.

As shown in fig. 4, embodiments of the present invention also provide an interpenetrated continuous fiber composite additive manufacturing apparatus 400, comprising:

the first output module 401 is configured to output a first control signal to a wire transmission structure and a second control signal to a first driving structure, so that the wire transmission structure responds to the first control signal, and a first fiber wire penetrates through the first material liquid tank, is inserted into a nozzle, and is printed from the nozzle; the first driving structure responds to the second control signal and drives the spray head to move, and the first fiber wires extending out of the spray head are sequentially laid in the space between the guide needles to form a fiber composite material with a preset number of layers stacked by the first fiber wires;

a second output module 402, configured to output third control information to the first driving structure, and control the nozzle to move to a position where a projection of the nozzle on the molding substrate does not coincide with the guide pin.

The interlayer-penetrating continuous fiber composite material additive manufacturing device solves the problem that the fiber composite material cannot form fibers which penetrate continuously in the direction perpendicular to the interlayer direction, so that interlayer performance is weak, and is less in limitation of processing technology and simple to operate.
