摘要:
Rapid prototyping modeling typically operates by utilizing an ink jet to lay down a thin surface of material as a liquid on a part platform. The material solidifies into a three dimensional object. Computer programs determine the shape of the object, the arrangement of objects and the sequence of objects being built to protect parts of the planarizer roller and planarizer blade of a rapid prototyping machine from erosion.

There is provided compositions and methods for producing three-dimensional objects by selective deposition modeling with a polar build material and a non-polar support material. The build material comprises a hydrocarbon wax material and a viscosity modifier, and the support material comprises a hydrocarbon alcohol wax material and a viscosity modifier. After the selective deposition modeling process has been completed, the object can be placed in a bath of polar solvent to remove the support material. The particular materials provided herein, and the post-processing methods associated therewith, provide for improved part quality of the three-dimensional object and for improved post-processing techniques. The three-dimensional objects can subsequently be used in a number of applications, such as patterns for investment casting.
摘要:
A by-product waste material removal system for solid deposition modeling. As excess build and support material is removed during the build as a by-product waste the removal system collects the by-product waste material into a waste receptacle for disposal. The by-product waste material removal system requires no mechanical systems.
摘要:
A UV curable composition useful for three-dimensional inkjet printing comprising (i) at least one UV curable urethane (meth)acrylate resin; (ii) at least one wax; (iii) at least one (meth)acrylate diluent; (iv) at least one photoinitiator; and (v) at least one polymerization inhibitor; wherein the amount of wax (ii) is sufficient to phase change the UV curable composition after jetting.
摘要:
A method, system and apparatus for variably controlling the temperature in a selective deposition modeling environment. The temperature of the formed portion of the three-dimensional object is detected. A gas is forced onto a surface of the formed portion of the three-dimensional object. The forced gas has a characteristic, such as temperature and quantity, that is variably controlled based on the detected temperature of the formed portion of the three-dimensional object.

In one aspect, build materials operable for use in 3D printing systems are described herein. In some embodiments, a build material comprises an oligomeric curable material, a reactive component that is solid at 25° C., and at least one diluent, wherein the reactive component comprises at least one chemical moiety that is polymerizable with a chemical moiety contained in the oligomeric curable material and/or the at least one diluent.
摘要:
An apparatus for repaving an asphalt surface is provided. The apparatus includes a base carried on a plurality of wheels, a heater to heat and soften a damaged asphalt surface, a series of blades and a center mill to scarify and break up the heated asphalt surface, and a mixer to receive and recondition the reclaimed asphalt. The center mill may include a plurality of teeth members to break up the asphalt and a plurality of lip members and paddles to lift the broken asphalt and deliver it to the mixer.
摘要:
A by-product waste material removal system for solid deposition modeling. As excess build and support material is removed during the build as a by-product waste the removal system accumulates, measures, and releases the by-product waste material into a waste receptacle for disposal. The by-product waste material removal system requires no mechanical vacuum systems and allows operator intervention to remove and replace waste receptacles without interrupting an ongoing build.
