Convert 3D print heads to a heating function – quickly and easily.
Liquids and pastes such as waxes, ceramics and polymers can now be heated to temperatures of up to 70 °C with our existing print heads. The heating function can be easily attached to the one-component print head vipro-HEAD.
Heating materials can be necessary in 3D printing for various reasons. Some materials require certain temperatures for processing or only become flowable at certain temperatures and can therefore be processed with our print heads. A constant temperature also contributes significantly to process stability.
With the heating function, which can now also be retrofitted, ViscoTec offers the option of heating existing 1K print heads simply, quickly and efficiently. The dispensing material is constantly heated throughout the entire print head, from the cartridge to the end of the dispensing unit. As the temperature is controlled with the heating function no additional control unit is required.
The retrofit kit includes:
- Cartridge heater with mounting bracket
- Cartridge adapter with vent valve
- Pump housing for heating function
- Heating cartridge for pump housing
- Temperature sensor
