    Abstract: A material deposition system for additive manufacturing including an extruder and a measuring device for measuring the viscosity and/or other rheological properties of a build material contained within the extruder. The measuring device may provide feedback to a controller for controlling one or more parameters depending on the measured viscosity and/or other rheological properties of the build material within the extruder. Two or more feed materials may be supplied to the extruder and a mixing device may be configured to mix the feed materials within the extruder to create a blended deposition material. The mixing device may be operatively coupled to the measuring device for simultaneously measuring the viscosity and/or other rheological properties of the materials during mixing. The controller may be configured to independently control one or more parameters associated with the materials depending on the viscosity and/or other rheological properties measured by the measuring device.

    Abstract: An extrusion head of an extruder is configured to move along a feedpath independently from a heating element so that the extrusion head can yield to extrusion-related forces. Specifically, the extruder may include an extrusion head movably coupled to a thermal core to permit axial displacement of the extrusion head relative to the thermal core. In use, the extrusion head may be displaced within the thermal core when the extruder is subject to extrusion-related forces (e.g., an upward force created by a retraction of build material or a downward force created by an advance of build material). This motion can facilitate better transitions by the extruder between different layers or z-axis positions in a model during fabrication.

    Abstract: A poly(oxyalkylene) polymer and a metal salt of a carboxylic acid, sulfonic acid, or alkylsulfate, in combination are useful as a polymer processing additive synergist. Polymer processing additive compositions, homogeneously catalyzed olefin compositions, and other extrudable polymer compositions including a poly(oxyalkylene) polymer and a metal salt of a carboxylic acid, sulfonic acid, or alkylsulfate are disclosed. Methods of reducing melt defects during the extrusion of a thermoplastic polymer, which may be a homogeneously catalyzed polyolefin, are also disclosed.
