Embodiment Construction

[0040] figure 1 An overview of a device 1 for producing objects 3 by additive manufacturing is shown. The apparatus 1 comprises a treatment chamber 5 for receiving a curable batch of powder material 11 and a post-treatment chamber 23 . A batch of powder material 11 is received on the build surface 7 of the build plate 9 . The build plate 9 can be positioned relative to the horizontal surface L of the batch of material 11 by means of supports 13 . The support 13 is movably arranged in the shaft 21 so that after curing a layer, the support 13 can be lowered and another layer of material can be cured on top of the already formed part of the object 3 . Curing means 15 are provided for curing selective portions of material 11 . In the illustrated embodiment, the solidification device 15 is a laser device arranged to generate electromagnetic radiation in the form of a laser in order to melt the powder material 11 provided on the support 13 and then, after cooling, form the Solid...

Abstract

Apparatus for producing an object by means of additive manufacturing includes a processing chamber for receiving on a build surface of a build plate a bath of powdered material which can be solidified; a support for positioning the build plate in relation to a surface level of the bath of material; a solidifying device for solidifying a selective part of the material; and a build plate preparationmeans for preparation of the build surface of the build plate such that the object can be build on the build surface of the build plate. A method of producing an object by means of additive manufacturing on a build surface of a build plate using such an apparatus is also provided.

Description

technical field [0001] According to a first aspect, the invention relates to a device for producing objects by additive manufacturing. [0002] According to a second aspect, the invention relates to a method of producing an object by additive manufacturing on a build surface of a build plate using the apparatus according to the first aspect. Background technique [0003] 3D printing or additive manufacturing refers to any of a variety of processes used to manufacture three-dimensional objects. Traditional techniques, such as injection molding, are less expensive for making, for example, high volumes of polymer products, but 3D printing or additive manufacturing can be faster, more flexible and cheaper when producing relatively small quantities of three-dimensional objects. [0004] Additive manufacturing is expected to become increasingly important in the future, as increasing competitive pressure forces companies not only to manufacture more economically with consistently ...
