Page 8: Working Principle Of The 3D Printer
7. Working principle of the 3D printer • For 3D print, you need a file, which contains the three-dimensional data of the object to be printed (a common format of such a file is, e.g., STL). • This file can be produced with the corresponding software or with a 3D-scanner. There are also many printing files already online that can be downloaded to print an object as quickly as possible. • The actual printer software has the task to render the above three-dimensional file into a file that the printer can print. This is a file in which the individual print layers, the print temperatures for nozzle etc. are specified. The file has the extension “.gcode”. • This GCODE printing file is sent to the 3D printer either via the USB interface by the computer, or saved on SD card, inserted into SD card slot of the 3D printer for standalone operation. • The 3D printer creates the object layer by layer (Fused filament fabrication procedure), the filament material is transported from the filament spool to the nozzle. • In the extruder, the filament material is melted and then applied to the build bed via a fine nozzle layer by layer. • The build bed moves in the Z (upwards/downwards) direction, the extruder moves in the X (left/right) and Y (forwards/ backwards) directions. Thus, all prerequisites to produce a threedimensional object by horizontal application of the present layers are created. A 3D printer is a highly complex device in which many parameters must be set depending on the printer, printed object and filament material used. -

Page 19: General Notes On 3D Printing
Nozzle temperature • The best nozzle temperature depends on the filament material as well as the printer layer thickness. The printing temperature of the filament varies depending on filament material and filament manufacturer. Always check the specification of the filament before printing. For best results it is recommended to use genuine Renkforce filament. • Perform the first test prints at the default temperature. • To optimize the print quality, print the same object with the same printing layer thickness but different nozzle temperatures. Select temperatures each different by 5 °C from the previous one. Compare the results. This way you can find suitable nozzle temperatures for different filaments and printing layer thicknesses more easily. -
Page 20: C) Print Layer Thickness
c) Print layer thickness • The print layer thickness determines the height of the individual print layers and thus the resolution and quality of the printed object. • The thinner the printed layers, the better the print quality and the longer the print duration. • The thicker the printed layers, the lower the print quality and the shorter the print duration. Experiment with the above parameters to find satisfying print results depending on the material used. For the first print attempts, use the PLA filament. Since it is a material that can be mastered easily as it does not shrink while cooling down and adheres very well to the build bed. -

Print speed: Observe the printing and adjust the print speed. The print speed may influence the print quality against different print object and different filament for example if the print speed is too high, the printing object may not adhere to the build bed. Nozzle temperature: Do not keep nozzle temperature at 260 °C for more than 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, decrease it to 230 °C and keep it at this temperature for at least 10 minutes before increasing it again. If you consistently operate the 3D printer at temperatures over 230 °C, the life time of the extruder will drastically be shortened. -
