摘要:
A method for creating a three-dimensional solid freeform fabrication object with non-reactive powder includes spreading a non-reactive powder on a substrate, selectively dispensing a reactive resin onto the non-reactive powder forming a mixture of reactive resin and non-reactive powder, wherein the selective dispensing the reactive resin defines the three-dimensional object, and curing the reactive resin thereby encapsulating the non-reactive powder.

The present invention is drawn toward systems and methods for free-form fabrication of solid three-dimensional objects. In one embodiment, a method can comprise a) ink-jetting a first ink-jettable composition containing a reactive build material and a second ink-jettable composition containing a curing agent separately onto a substrate such that contact between the reactive build material and the curing agent occurs, thereby resulting in a reaction that forms a solidifying composition, and b) repeating the ink-jetting step such that multiple layers of solidifying composition are accrued, wherein said multiple layers are successively bound to one another to form the solid three-dimensional object.

Solid freeform fabrication (SFF) systems for producing a three-dimensional object and methods of producing three-dimensional objects are disclosed. The SFF system includes a dispensing system and a curing system. The dispensing system is adapted to dispense a radiation initiator and a build material. The radiation initiator and the build material are stored separately in the dispensing system and are dispensed separately. The curing system cures the radiation initiator and the build material after each has been dispensed.
