The world of thermoplastic composites manufacturing is taking a giant leap forward with the introduction of the Structural Continuous Fiber 3D Printing (SCF3D) system. This groundbreaking technology brings continuous fiber embedding to large-scale additive manufacturing, allowing for multi-directional reinforcement while maintaining higher fiber volume fraction and superior bonding quality during the print process.

SCF3D is an innovative approach to 3D printing that incorporates continuous fiber filaments into an extruder-style system. This technology allows users to print both polymer and reinforcement as needed, optimizing the strength of parts in ways previously impossible with traditional additive manufacturing.

Key components of the SCF3D system include:

• SCF3D head
• Robotic motion platform
• Dryer and pallet feeder
• Print table
• AddPrint software for simulation and process control

The system can process a wide range of industrial polymers, capable of working at temperatures up to 400°C, making it suitable even for

Unlike conventional large-format additive manufacturing that primarily extrudes polymer with additives, SCF3D has been designed from the ground up with composite engineering in mind. It offers:

• Ability to print complex geometries with continuous fiber reinforcement
• Moldless printing capability
• Higher steering possibilities for fiber placement
• Option to print your own mold and add reinforcement

While SCF3D may have a lower fiber volume fraction compared to automated fiber placement (AFP) systems, it offers greater flexibility in creating complex parts and geometries without the need for molds.

1. Enhanced Strength-to-Weight Ratio: SCF3D-printed parts can be up to 200 times stronger than those produced by traditional polymer printing setups.
2. Improved Design Flexibility: Engineers can strategically place reinforcements to maximize properties, choosing polymer placement and fiber direction as needed.
3. Cost-Effectiveness:some text
   1. Lower tooling costs
   2. Higher production rates
   3. Significant material savings (9 kg/hour vs. 85-100 kg/hour in traditional systems)

Efficiency: The lightweight, high-strength parts produced by SCF3D result in ongoing energy savings when used in vehicles or other moving applications.

SCF3D technology has potential applications across various industries:

• Aerospace (secondary structures)
• Space
• Defense
• Marine (including primary structures)
• Sports equipment (customized products)
• Automotive (high-performance and low-volume production vehicles)

While specific case studies are still in development, the technology shows promise for creating highly customized, lightweight, and strong parts across these sectors.

To explore the possibilities of SCF3D technology:

1. Reach out to the Addcomposites team to discuss pilot projects
2. Request a quotation
3. Consider obtaining an AddPrint license to experiment with the technology

The system's compatibility with existing robot systems makes it an excellent option for scaling up continuous fiber 3D printing operations while reducing infrastructure costs.
