Abstract: A powder discharge module serves for a recoating device of an additive manufacturing device. A powder discharge module has a powder container for receiving the building material in powder form, and the powder container includes a supply opening for supplying the building material in powder form to the powder container and a discharge section facing the working plane, the discharge section having at least a first discharge device for discharging building material in powder form and at least one fluidization zone for fluidizing the building material in powder form using a gas in the powder container. The powder container further includes a first flow reduction element provided in the powder container.

Abstract: A device includes a recoater that can be moved in an application direction across a build area, the recoater having at least a first recoating unit for applying a layer of the building material to the build area and a solidification device that can be moved in the application direction across the build area, the solidification device having at least a first solidification unit for selectively solidifying the applied layer of the building material at positions that correspond to a cross-section of the object to be produced. The device can repeat the steps of applying and selectively solidifying until the object is completed. The recoater includes at least a second recoating unit that is arranged at the other side of the first solidification unit than the first recoating unit with respect to the application direction.
