This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240025120 titled 'METHOD FOR CLEANING A PRINT HEAD
Simplified Explanation
The abstract of the patent application describes a method for removing deposits in a print head of a 3D printer. The method involves supplying a liquid containing a granular solid to the print head and setting the liquid into vibration within the print head.
- The method involves supplying a liquid with granular solid to the print head.
- The liquid in the print head is set into vibration.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Cleaning and maintenance of 3D printer print heads.
- Removal of deposits and clogs in the print heads.
- Improving the performance and lifespan of 3D printers.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Deposits and clogs in print heads can hinder the printing process and affect print quality.
- Manual cleaning of print heads can be time-consuming and may not be effective in removing all deposits.
- Accumulated deposits can lead to the deterioration of print head performance and require costly replacements.
Benefits of this technology:
- Efficient and effective removal of deposits in print heads.
- Improved print quality and reliability.
- Extended lifespan of print heads, reducing maintenance and replacement costs.
