Abstract

The general flatbed printer system is composed of a PC and a dedicated S/W, which is inconvenient to use. In the end, there is a need for a technology that can easily and conveniently use various types of printing through simplification, smartization, etc. of a flatbed printer system configuration. That is, there is an increasing demand for multi-dimensional printer capable of printing on various types of materials with one printer and capable of printing various types of products. Therefore, in this paper, we developed a flatbed printer system capable of multi-dimensional printing using Head Encoder/Trigger control. To this end, we developed a flatbed printer that connects the internal module of the flatbed printer with an input type detection sensor and controls all operating states by the head encoder and head trigger signals of the printer through separate main controllers. Through this, the development and diffusion of IoT technology will expand the printer control of the smart environment to the developed form throughout the industry. It is expected to contribute to the development of the 3D printing industry in the future.

일반적인 평판 프린터 시스템은 PC와 전용 S/W로 구성되어 사용에 불편함이 존재한다. 결국, 평판 프린터 시스템 구성의 간소화, 스마트화 등을 통해 다양한 형태의 프린팅을 쉽고 편리하게 사용할 수 있는 기술이 필요하다. 즉, 한 대의 프린터로 여러 종류의 소재에 인쇄가 가능하며, 다양한 형태의 상품을 인쇄할 수 있는 다입체 프린터에 대한 수요가 증가하고 있다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 Head Encoder/Trigger 제어를 이용하여 다입체 인쇄가 가능한 평판 프린터 시스템을 개발하였다. 이를 위해, 평판 프린터 내부 모듈을 입력 형태 감지 센서를 연계시키고, 별도의 메인 콘트롤러를 통해 프린터의 Head Encoder와 Head Trigger 신호에 의해 모든 동작 상태를 제어하는 평판 프린터를 개발하였다. 이를 통해, IoT 기술의 발전 및 보급의 확산으로 산업 전반에 걸쳐 스마트 환경의 프린터 제어가 발전된 형태로 확대될 것이며, 향후 3D 프린팅 산업 발전에 기여할 것으로 기대된다.
