摘要:
A system and a method for printing of three-dimensional objects are provided. The system may include at least two replaceable printing trays and the method may include printing using a printing head a first three dimensional object on a first replaceable printing tray in a printing area; automatically moving the first tray from the printing area; automatically placing a second replaceable printing tray in the printing area; and immediately resuming printing a second three dimensional object on the second tray.
摘要:
Apparatus for producing an object by sequentially forming thin layers of a construction material one on top of the other responsive to data defining the object, the apparatus comprising: a plurality of printing heads each having a surface formed with a plurality of output orifices and controllable to dispense the construction material through each orifice independently of the other orifices; a shuttle to which the printing heads are mounted; a support surface; and a controller adapted to control the shuttle to move back and forth over the support surface and as the shuttle moves to control the printing heads to dispense the construction material through each of their respective orifices responsive to the data to form a first layer on the support surface and thereafter, sequentially the other layers; wherein each printing head is dismountable from the shuttle and replaceable independently of the other printing heads.
摘要:
An apparatus to help control the quality of printed three-dimensional objects is provided. The apparatus may include a printing head to print a three-dimensional object and a printing tray having defined surface characteristics serving to control adherence of the object being printed to the printing tray and/or prevent deformations in the printed object.

摘要:
A method to help control the quality of printed three-dimensional objects is provided. The method may include printing a carpet of building material on a printing tray below and/or around the base of an object prior to printing the object such that the carpet may include one or more layers of modeling material. According to embodiments of the invention the carpet is served to prevent infiltration of air and/or radiation between the base of the object and the tray to prevent detachment of the object from the tray.
摘要:
A system and method for building three dimensional objects may adjust data used to build the objects to, for example, improve quality or correct for defects. A printer may, for example, accept data representing the object and modify the data according to an adjustment parameter; the printer may build the object according to the parameter. The parameter may be, for example, fixed in the printer, user entered, and/or calculated by the printer. In one embodiment, a support pedestal may be built of deposited material before the object is built.
摘要:
A printing device for dispending material on a heated substrate is provided. The device may include a printing head having one or more nozzles and a heat shield that partially masks a side of the printing head that faces the heated substrate when printing so as to reduce heat transfer from the substrate to the printing head. The shield includes a slot aligned with the one or more nozzles to enable passage of material from the one or more nozzles to the heated substrate.
