Additive manufacturing with traversing irradiation region
Abstract:
There is disclosed additive manufacturing apparatus (10), (22), (34) comprising: a heater (18), (36) to direct radiant heat onto an irradiation region (20) of a build platform (12), at least part of the heater (18), (36) being moveable to cause the irradiation region (20) to traverse over the build platform (12); a coating module (14) moveable relative the heater (18), (36) to traverse the build platform (12) to apply a build material onto the build platform (12); and a print module (16) moveable relative the heater (18), (36) to traverse the build platform (12) to selectively eject a print agent onto the build material.
