Abstract: An additive manufacturing machine includes a heated gas circulation system for regulating the temperature of additive powder throughout an annular powder bed and parts formed therein. The additive manufacturing machine includes an annular build platform defining a plurality of perforations and a heated gas supply that provides a flow of heated air through the plurality of perforations and the powder bed. The additive manufacturing machine further includes a plurality of fairings for guiding the flow of heated gas to temperature sensitive regions to minimize temperature gradients within the powder bed which might otherwise result in distortion, thermal stresses, or cracking in the finished part.

Abstract: An additive manufacturing apparatus includes: a build table, at least a portion of which is transparent, the build table defining a build surface; a material applicator operable to deposit a radio-energy-curable resin on the build surface; a stage positioned facing the build surface of the build table and configured to hold a one or more cured layers of the resin; one or more actuators operable to change the relative positions of the build table and the stage; a radiant energy apparatus positioned adjacent to the build table opposite to the stage, and operable to generate and project radiant energy on the resin through the build table in a predetermined pattern; a drive mechanism operable to move the build table so as to expose a new portion thereof for each layer; and material remover operable to remove remnants from the build surface. A method for using the apparatus is provided.
