The present disclosure relates to a 3D printer (1) for 3D printing of a construct. The 3D printer (1) has a print bed (2). The 3D printer further comprises at least one actuating tool head (3) with an extrusion element (4), wherein the extrusion element and the print bed are movable in relation to each other. The 3D printer also comprises at least one sensor (5) arranged to sense a force applied to the print bed (2) by the extrusion element (4), or vice versa. The 3D printer additionally comprises a control element (7) arranged to detect when the sensed force exceeds a predetermined value and to record a position of the print bed or extrusion element related to the detection that the predetermined value is exceeded. The present disclosure also relates to corresponding methods and computer programs.

An extruder is provided with: a screw rotationally driven about the axis by a first motor; a barrel having a screw hole into which the screw is inserted and a de-airing port configured to discharge air inside the screw hole; a filter configured such that a part thereof faces the de-airing port of the barrel; and a filter-driving mechanism configured to move the filter to shift the part of the filter facing the de-airing port.

A die-formed chamfered plastic floor and a preparation method thereof are disclosed. The method includes: mixing raw materials for preparing a plastic floor matrix to obtain a mixed material; subjecting the mixed material to an extrusion, a laminating-embossing treatment, a die forming-chamfering treatment, a coating with an ultraviolet curable paint, a slicing, and a tenoning in sequence, to obtain the die-formed chamfered plastic floor. In the disclosure, a die forming-chamfering treatment is set between a laminating-embossing treatment and a coating with an ultraviolet curable paint, and thereby a chamfer embossing could be formed on the surface of the workpiece through pressing.

A method for forming an uncured rubber component, the method includes conveying an uncured extruded rubber strip extruded continuously from an extruder using a conveyor, the conveyor including a first conveyor and a second conveyor located at a downstream side of the first conveyor in a convey direction, the step of conveying including shrinking the uncured extruded rubber strip, wherein the step of shrinking is such that the uncured extruded rubber strip, in a relaxed state of a U-shaped manner, passes through fluid held in a tank between the first conveyor and the second conveyor without being restrained so that the uncured extruded rubber strip shrinks freely while receiving buoyancy from the fluid, and cutting the uncured extruded rubber strip in a predetermined length to form an uncured rubber component, after the step of shrinking.

An extruder and a long fiber thermoplastic (LFT) extrusion member manufactured thereby, and the extruder uses the LFT as a raw material to produce LFT extrusion members such as LFT sheets, pipes and profiles by a continuous extrusion molding process. The structural improvement of the extruder screw, including the screw body having three different thread groove deep sections, in sequence, a feed section, a compression section and a metering section, so that the LFT extrusion member produced by the extruder has high strength, high stiffness, high dimensional stability, low warpage and resistance to creep.

The invention relates to a multi-layer, preferably co-extruded, plastic film with improved modulus properties, which is suitable, in particular, for producing three-dimensionally shaped articles.
