Water research is one of many fields where fused filament fabrication 3D printing offers the freedom of customization and the inclusion of commercial components. We present our 330 mL 3D printed laboratory receptacle that has been customized to control pressurized air and liquid in one body. During our tests, water has been stored without loss, and batches were frozen whilst circulating and diffusing air through the liquid. The printing has been optimized with the slicer software and gcode editing, letting the fused filament 3D printer to build a diffuser membrane surrounded by air-tight walls. Detailed construction instructions are given, including piping and control board for operation. According to the functionality of the receptacle and the aeration system, the solutions have been found durable and low-cost. Disadvantages are the time invested in creating customized code, and certain limitations of the membrane itself.
水研究是许多领域之一,在这些领域中,熔融长丝制造3D打印提供了定制的自由度以及商业组件的融入。我们展示了我们定制的330毫升3D打印实验室容器,它可以在一个容器中控制压缩空气和液体。在我们的测试中,水被储存起来没有损失,并且在液体循环和空气扩散的同时将批次冷冻。通过切片软件和G代码编辑对打印进行了优化,使熔融长丝3D打印机能够构建一个被气密壁包围的扩散膜。给出了详细的构造说明,包括用于操作的管道和控制板。根据容器和曝气系统的功能,这些解决方案被证明是耐用且低成本的。缺点是创建定制代码投入的时间,以及膜本身的某些局限性。
