In the work, calculations were made and graphs of dependence were obtained, which influence the work of the auger and the installation itself. A new method of printing parts with polymer granules is described and the principle of operation of the equipment used is described. The picture of the working installation with the main components and the method of its attachment on a 3D printer is presented. The heating modes of the extruder itself are simulated and a thermal diagram of the device is shown, which accurately displays the temperature distribution across the sections.en3D printer, 3D printing, polymer materials, printing, granules, device, auger, heating modeArticle
