This page is for the introduction of the main parts of Flsun V400 series 3D printers, you can have a general understanding of the printer.
The V400 series 3D printers are machines that use plastic wires to create 3D objects.
In most cases, the V400 can print 3D models in stl format, which require the use of slicing software to pre-process the file model before printing.
In the case of Cura, for example, the slicing software slices the stl file into a number of layers, and the information in each layer is automatically converted into a language the printer understands, indicating the path and rate of movement of the axes during the printing process.
In addition to this, the slicing software is able to integrate a variety of parameter settings into the generated code, such as the print temperature of the wire, the extrusion speed of the printer, and generate supports for certain parts of the printed model.
The Delta printer moves using a delta coordinate system, with the extruder head suspended in mid-air and the arms attached to three vertical columns arranged in a triangular shape, with the three arms supporting the extruder at equal angles apart from each other, controlling the extruder's position.
Each arm can only move vertically up and down, but by moving each arm independently, the extruder is able to move in all directions. All the arms work together to achieve a single motion, requiring less movement to print the same object, so it is faster than a Cartesian machine.
The extruder is responsible for pulling the wire from the spool and feeding it to the hot end, where it is heated and melted and then extruded through a nozzle to produce the printed model. The extruder is one of the core components of a 3D printer, as it needs to precisely control the length of the wire being extruded through the hot end.
The hot end is responsible for heating the wire to a specified temperature, melting it and depositing it in thin layers to create the model. Different materials use different heating temperatures. For example, PLA wire prints at lower temperatures around 210-220°C, while other materials such as PETG and ABS need to be printed at higher temperatures around 250-260°C.
The Flsun V400 printer is equipped with an integrally designed hot end, which integrates the nozzle with an insulating block that is connected to a heat sink through a thin metal tube for optimal performance.
With the one-piece design, the hot end heats up much faster than a normal hot end and minimizes the problems that can occur when changing nozzles.
The hot bed is used to heat the print surface to help the printed layer adhere better to the framing plate.
The V400 3D printer is used to control the heating temperature depending on the type of wire, up to a maximum of 110°C. For example, PLA materials can be printed on a low-temperature print panel without warping using a hot bed temperature of 60°C. Materials such as ABS and PC need to be printed at a hot bed temperature of 100-110°C in order to prevent warping.
If the print surface is not heated, the deposited wire will cool quickly and the tension between the layers will cause it to warp.
Fast printing requires good cooling of the printed part and the V400 is equipped with a 4510 radial fan with two air ducts to control the air flow under the nozzle.

Control System: Innovative use of the same more modern structure as ROS (Robot Operating System), non-real-time system (computing control) to real-time system (receiving execution) to the hardware, making it more intelligent and robotized. The core computing unit MPU adopts Allwinne quad-core 1.6GHz high-frequency processor, equipped with GE8300 GPU, CoolFlexTM power management architecture, 1G DDR4 memory, onboard 16G EMMC and support for the expansion of TF card storage, easy to deal with a variety of complex calculations so that 3D printers to get faster printing speed.
Display system: It adopts 7-inch wide-angle IPS ultra-high resolution interactive screen, abandoning the traditional touch-screen point-and-press operation and using the same multi-touch interaction scheme as Apple's cell phone, and the newly optimized and designed KlipperScreen interface, which is simple and convenient, and brings a brand-new intelligent interactive experience.
broken material detector: When the printing model runs out of consumables, when the broken material detector detects no consumables, the light on the broken material detector will go out and the printer will pause printing to avoid empty printing.
