  • Publication number: 20190176371
    Abstract: The disclosure provides a three-dimensional printing device and a three-dimensional printing method. The device includes a controller, a tank and a printing platform. The controller performs a three-dimensional printing operation according to a slice file, and judges the magnitude of shear force corresponding to a slice object in the slice file to determine a specific rotating angle. A carrying surface of the printing platform faces a bottom surface of the tank. When the controller performs the three-dimensional printing operation, the printed object corresponding to the slice object is formed between the carrying surface of the printing platform and the bottom surface of the tank. The controller controls the printing platform to move away the tank by a default vertical distance, and controls the tank to rotate by a specific rotating angle, such that the printed object is removed from the bottom surface of the tank.

  • Patent number: 10173411
    Abstract: A 3-D printing apparatus includes a frame, a tank, an automatic-filling module and a control unit. The tank is disposed in the frame and contains a liquid-forming material. The automatic-filling module includes a sensing unit, a reservoir, a filling pipe and a pressuring unit. The sensing unit detects a liquid level of the tank. The reservoir stores the liquid-forming material. The filling pipe connects to the reservoir and includes an outlet. A maximum liquid level of the liquid-forming material in the reservoir is lower than or equal to a level of the outlet. A gap exists between the outlet and a top edge of the tank. The pressuring unit provides a positive pressure to the reservoir so that the liquid-forming material in the reservoir flows to the tank. The control unit determines whether the pressuring unit provides the positive pressure to the reservoir according to the liquid level.
