摘要: Methods, devices and systems for efficient 3D printing that address conventional inefficiencies while utilizing a single compact device are set forth. Some embodiments utilize a circular-shaped build area revolving symmetrically around a single center point utilizing a continuous helical printing process. In some embodiments, vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) are utilized as an energy source for curing the print material. The VCSELs can be integrated with the print head and can form an array which can be staggered or linear. In some embodiments, the VCSELs (and the corresponding print head)can be connected to a rotating platform, which can rotate independently from the revolving build area. In some embodiments, a thermoelectric cooler and/or a fluid cooler can provide cooling to the VCSELS.

摘要: Set forth are methods for preparing encoded three-dimensional objects. Magnetic particles or particles containing compounds that emit identifiable spectra, or combinations of multiple different magnetic and/or spectral emitting particles are embedded in the 3D object during formation. The particles can be added into the build material before construction, injected in a controlled manner into the 3D object during formation or added to the surface of the object during or after formation. The embedded material allows information regarding when and how the product was manufactured and the materials used to produce the product.

摘要: Methods, devices, and systems for efficient 3D printing are set forth. Some embodiments utilize a circular-shaped build area revolving symmetrically around a single center point utilizing a semi-continuous or continuous helical printing process. Polymerizable build material is fed in a controlled manner to a build region where it is irradiated to cause solidification of the build material so as to provide a polymerization gradient zone comprising liquid polymerizable material, partially cured polymerizable material and fully cured polymerized material. Polymerization inhibitors can be provided to retard polymerization in selected regions of the build. The method can also include delivery of supporting materials to aid in maintaining the 3D structure during the build process.

摘要: A 3D printing system utilizes a circular-shaped build area revolving symmetrically around a single center point in a continuous helical printing process. A viscous, solidifyable liquid composition is deposited on a construction area where it is exposed to a solidifying medium to form a physical object that is attached to a build platform above and parallel to the construction zone. The build platform continuously rotates and simultaneously rises in a gradual programmed manner to continuously produce adhered layers of material deposited and bonded in a helical fashion. The construction area includes mechanisms to continuously remove therefrom excess build material not incorporated in the physical object formed.
