摘要: In one example, a lighting device for an additive manufacturing machine includes first light sources each to emit monochromatic light within a first band of wavelengths that includes a peak light absorption of a liquid coalescing agent and second light sources each to emit monochromatic light within a second band of wavelengths different from the first band of wavelengths. Each of the first light sources or each of multiple groups of the first light sources is individually addressable to emit monochromatic light independent of any other of the first light sources or of any other group of the first light sources and each of the second light sources or each of multiple groups of the second light sources is individually addressable to emit monochromatic light independent of any other of the second light sources or of any other group of the second light sources.

摘要: A polymeric powder composition for three-dimensional printing includes first, second, and third polymeric particles. The first particles, having a first average size, are present in an amount ranging from about 70 wt % to about 95 wt %. The second particles, having a second average size smaller than the first average size, are present in an amount ranging from about 0.5 wt % to about 21 wt %. The third particles, having a third average size smaller than the second average size, are present in an amount ranging from greater than 0 wt % up to about 21 wt %. Each of the first, second, and third average sizes independently ranges from 5 μm to about 100 μm. A sum of the fractional weight ratios of all of the polymeric particles in the polymeric powder composition equals 1.

摘要: In an example of a method for making polymer-encapsulated metallic ink pigment particles, a layer of a transparent resin dispersion is disposed on a flexible substrate. The resin dispersion layer is substantially dried, and a base resin layer is formed. A slurry is disposed onto the base resin layer. The slurry includes metallic pigment particles and polymer particles dispersed in a non-aqueous carrier. The slurry is dried to form a metallic pigment-polymer sheet. Another layer of the transparent resin dispersion is disposed on the metallic pigment-polymer sheet and is dried. A coating resin layer is formed. The metallic pigment-polymer sheet and the base and coating transparent resin layers form a tri-layer film having the metallic pigment particles encapsulated between the base and coating transparent resin layers.

摘要: In a 3D printing method, a sinterable material is applied and heated to a temperature ranging from about 50° C. to about 400° C. A coalescent agent is selectively applied on a portion of the sinterable material, and a modifying agent is selectively applied on the portion and/or on another portion of the sinterable material. The modifying agent consists of an inorganic salt, a surfactant, a co-solvent, a humectant, a biocide, and water. The sinterable material is exposed to radiation, whereby the coalescent agent at least partially cures the portion of the sinterable material in contact with the coalescent agent, and the modifying agent i) reduces curing of the portion of the sinterable material in contact with both the coalescent agent and the modifying agent ii) prevents curing of the other portion of the sinterable material in contact with the modifying agent, or iii) both i and ii.

摘要: In a 3D printing method, a coalescent dispersion for forming a 3D object is selected. The dispersion includes an aqueous vehicle and an infrared or near-infrared binding agent dissolved or dispersed therein. The binding agent is a phthalocyanine having a polar group attached to each side chain or a naphthalocyanine having a polar group attached to each side chain. A sinterable material is deposited and heated to a temperature ranging from about 50 C to about 350 C. The dispersion is selectively applied on at least a portion of the sinterable material. The sinterable material and the dispersion applied thereon are exposed to infrared or near-infrared radiation. The binding agent absorbs the radiation and converts it to thermal energy. At least the portion of the sinterable material in contact with the binding agent is at least cured to form a first layer of the 3D object.

摘要: In an example of a three-dimensional (3D) printing method, a build material (consisting of an inorganic particle and a polymer attached thereto) is applied. The polymer is a continuous coating having a thickness from about 3 nm to about 1500 nm, or nano-beads having an average diameter from about 3 nm to about 1500 nm. The build material is heated to a temperature from about 5° C. to about 50° C. below the polymer's melting point. A coalescent dispersion (including a coalescent agent and inorganic nanoparticles) is selectively applied on a portion of the build material, and the applied build material and coalescent dispersion are exposed to electromagnetic radiation. The coalescent dispersion absorbs the electromagnetic radiation and heats up the portion of the build material in contact therewith to fuse the portion of the build material in contact with the coalescent dispersion and to form a layer of a 3D object.
