V1Prototype takes you through rapid prototyping technology in a minute
Rapid prototyping technology, also known as rapid prototyping technology, is an important part of modern advanced manufacturing technology. Rapid prototyping equipment can directly, quickly and accurately transform design concepts or design solutions into actual part prototypes or directly manufacture parts through the process of model building, approximation and slicing, providing an efficient and low-cost means of realization for part prototyping and verification of design concepts, making up for the shortcomings of traditional manufacturing methods. Additive manufacturing technology is based on the principle of discrete/stack molding, where the CAD model is layered according to a certain thickness according to the 3D…
Working conditions of plastic molds Due to the development of plastic and plastic molding industry, the quality of plastic mold is also higher and higher, so the failure of plastic mold and its influencing factors have become an important research topic. The main working parts of the plastic mold are forming parts, such as punch, concave die, etc., they constitute the cavity of the plastic mold, in order to form a variety of plastic parts of the surface and direct contact with plastic, subjected to pressure, temperature, friction and corrosion.

Saving energy and reducing consumption The energy saving of injection molding machine can be divided into two parts: one is the power part, the other is the heating part.Energy saving in the power part: inverter is mostly used, and energy saving is achieved by saving the residual energy consumption of the motor. For example, the actual power of the motor is 50Hz, but you actually only need 30Hz in the production, and those excess energy consumption will be wasted. Inverter is to change the power output of the motor to achieve the effect of energy saving. Heating part energy saving:…

How was the military quick prototyping model process made at the air show?
The various military equipment we saw on the air show are actually military equipment models produced by the prototype factory, also known as the prototype. According to the requirements, some of these prototypes will be scaled down according to the prototype in size, but the appearance and structure are basically the same as the prototype, and have some functions of the prototype. Some equipment can also be directly assembled into a real military equipment prototype for operation testing. Why do military equipment need to be modeled? Instead of directly producing products? To understand this problem, we must first understand the…
3D printing has revolutionized the traditional supply chain model
In fact, after in-depth understanding, it is not difficult to find that the development and application of emerging technologies such as the Internet of Things, big data, robotics and artificial intelligence is nothing more than some optimization of the existing supply chain. However, 3D printing is quite different. With its rapid development and large-scale adoption, the traditional supply chain model will embrace a subversive change! Below, we will understand the impact of 3D printing on the traditional supply chain model from the three aspects of order management, manufacturing and logistics distribution: 3D printing improves order management Supply chain activities are…
The traditional die casting process is mainly composed of four steps, or called high pressure die casting. These four steps, which include mold preparation, filling, injection, and sanding, are the basis of various modified die casting processes. During the preparation process, a lubricant is sprayed into the mold cavity. In addition to helping to control the temperature of the mold, the lubricant can also help to release the casting. The mold can then be closed and the molten metal is injected into the mold at a high pressure ranging from 10 to 175 mpa. When the molten metal is filled,…
Why 3D printing is one of the best manufacturing processes available today
Before, many manufacturers were designing with the help of CNC machining etc. Nowadays, many manufacturers are already doing it through 3D printing. 3D printing is one of the best manufacturing processes today, and why is it so, because it has some advantages that traditional manufacturing cannot give. Freedom of design Thanks to the layered construction method and the simple removal of supports, it is possible to create very complex shapes that cannot be produced by traditional methods. In fact, sometimes the support structure is not even needed, depending entirely on the complexity of the product being created. However, in general,…
What is the relationship between 3D printing and complex mode？
What is complex module? We are often asked by guests what is the mold and what is the mold process? Let’s take it literally. What is a replica? From the literal point of view, the complex mode is the copy. The mold is the mold of the mold. From the literal point of view, it means to copy the product from a mold. What’s the process of complex mold? What does he have to do with 3D printing? First, we need to use 3D printing to make a prototype, that is, the master mold, then copy a set of molds…
The increase of 3D printing materials promotes the development of 3D rapid prototyping industry

Do you know anything about metal die casting? What is metal die casting?
Die casting is a metal casting process characterized by the application of high pressure to melted metal using an inner cavity of the mold. Molds are usually made from stronger alloys in a process similar to injection molding. Most die casting castings are iron free, such as zinc, copper, aluminum, magnesium, lead, tin and lead-tin alloys and their alloys. Depending on the type of die casting, cold chamber die casting machine or hot chamber die casting machine is needed. The cost of casting equipment and molds is high, so the die casting process is generally only used to manufacture large…

Results and discussion of die casting zinc alloy, comparison and summary of different process costs
Results and Discussion 1. The influence of temperature Temperature is an important guarantee for smelting process, which plays an important role in melting, burning loss and furnace age of metals. Due to the uniqueness of the new process, the alloy can be prepared below 600 ℃. Under the experimental conditions, the temperature has no significant effect on melting, but the comprehensive analysis shows that 570 ℃ melting alloy is more suitable for production. 2.Influence of covering agent Theoretically, the addition of mulcher can reduce the oxidation, evaporation and inspiration of elements in the alloy. Therefore, charcoal was used as a…
If you want to know more about 3D printing, V1Prototype will show you a brief history about it
The term “3D printing” is generally used synonymously with “additive manufacturing”. This was not always the case, and in 2007 3D printing and 3D printers would have been expressed as extruded materials or plastics for desktop machines. During this time, many industrial users of additive manufacturing adopted the term “additive manufacturing” or RP to refer to processes such as laser sintering or adhesive injection processes. The term 3D printing has become particularly popular in the last decade because of the popularity of desktop printers and the maker movement. Because of its popularity in the media, these terms are now being…
