I investigated the temperature changes inside the build chamber!
"[Mitarepo] A thermos structure that is effective for shaping super engineering plastics! Investigating the temperature changes inside the 'PEEK-300'!" | System Create
"Mitarepo" is a series that introduces what can be done using various products under the concept of "I tried doing this!" From the wide range of product genres handled by System Create, we deliver useful information each time. In Vol. 54, we conducted a temperature rise experiment using the "CreatBot PEEK-300," which has a thermos bottle structure and excels in heat retention, and examined the temperature changes inside the chamber. Super engineering plastics have become manageable even in 3D printing. It's great that we can create models with materials that can surpass metals! However, due to their special characteristics, the forming process is not easy... If the model cools down or the surrounding temperature changes rapidly, issues like "warping" and "layer separation" can occur immediately. Therefore, this time we investigated how well we can manage temperature by examining the temperature changes inside the chamber with the "PEEK-300," which can handle super engineering plastics. "Can a high-temperature environment be created quickly?" "How well can the temperature be maintained?" We will explain the crucial aspect of temperature management in forming, along with the verification results using graphs. *You can download the materials from the button below.

If you want to enhance the heat resistance and mechanical strength of 3D printed models, or if you want to ensure reliable 3D printing with materials that have a high melting point, I hope you will find this helpful as a hint.
