  • Publication number: 20230067362
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method of manufacturing a 3D printed object. The method comprises selectively applying a fusing agent onto powder bed material; and exposing at least part of the powder bed material to radiation to fuse at least part of the powder bed material to form a layer of the 3D printed object. The fusing agent and/or a detailing agent is selectively applied to the powder bed material in a predetermined arrangement to form a porous region in the 3D printed object. The 3D printed object is then treated with a modifying agent, such that the modifying agent at least partially penetrates the porous region of the 3D printed object.

  • Patent number: 11511479
    Abstract: A device includes a carriage movable relative to a build pad along a bi-directional travel path and supporting at least a radiation source and an applicator to selectively apply a plurality of fluid agents, including first fluid agents to affect a first material property. A timing and order of operation of the radiation source and the applicator, with the carriage, is to maintain first and second portions of a 3D object under formation within at least one selectable temperature range despite a first total volume of the first fluid agents for application onto the first portion of the 3D object being substantially greater than a second total volume of second fluid agents for application onto the second portion of the 3D object.

  • Publication number: 20220355543
    Abstract: A three-dimensional printing method can include iteratively applying polymer build material as individual layers; based on a three-dimensional object model, selectively jetting an electromagnetic radiation absorber and a translucency-modulating plasticizer onto individual layers of the polymer build material; and exposing the powder bed to electromagnetic energy to selectively fuse portions of individual layers of the polymer build material together to form a three-dimensional object. The polymer build material can include from about 60 wt % to 100 wt % polymeric particles having an average particle size from about 10 ?m to about 150 ?m and a degree of crystallinity from about 2% to about 60%, to a powder bed. At the locations where the polymer build material includes jetted translucency-modulating plasticizer, the three-dimensional object can exhibit an optical transmittance from about 5% to about 80%.

  • Patent number: 11383435
    Abstract: In an example of a method for three-dimensional (3D) printing, a build material composition is applied to form a build material layer. The build material composition includes a polyamide. The polyamide is selectively melted, based on a 3D object model, in at least a portion of the build material layer to form a molten portion including molten polyamide. An epoxy agent is selectively applied, based on the 3D object model, on the molten portion of the build material layer. The epoxy agent includes a polyfunctional epoxy, which crosslinks the molten polyamide in the molten portion.
