Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to additive manufacturing of an object using both a digital light processing (DLP) projector and a focused energy source to irradiate a photopolymerizable material, and apparatuses and methods for the same. The DLP projector irradiates and cures an outer perimeter of the object, and the focused energy source irradiates and cures an inner region of the object. In a preferred embodiment, irradiation by both the DLP projector and the focused energy source occur from underneath a tank holding the photopolymerizable material and through a transparent window.

Abstract: The present application provides for coaters, and methods of using coaters, configured to coat tubes, rods or like members. The coaters may include a coating reservoir configured to apply a coating to the exterior surface of such members. The coating reservoir may include at least one void, first and second ends with first and second apertures, respectively, in communication with the at least one void, at least one port in communication with the at least one void, and coating delivery material positioned within the at least one void. The first aperture, second aperture, and coating delivery material may define a coating passageway through the coating reservoir. An engagement portion of the coating delivery material may define the narrowest portion of the coating pathway and be effective in supporting and coating the exterior surface of a member as the member passes, or is passed, through the coating passageway.
