Abstract: Apparatus for continuously producing a molded body by an additive manufacturing method includes a processing region receiving a powder applied layer-by-layer to form a molded body, and a separation device having a separation element which can be introduced into the processing region to form chambers in the processing region. The separation device further includes a drive to move the separation element such as to lower the chambers in a vertical direction during the layer-by-layer processing from a treatment portion of the processing region to a removal portion of the processing region, and to remove the separation element in the removal portion of the processing region at least in part from the processing region for opening a lower one of the chambers so that the molded body is able to fall or slide out of the processing region.

Abstract: A system for EIT imaging comprises an electrode array for positioning on a patient and measuring an impedance distribution, a data entry unit and a calculation unit. The electrode array contains a visual aid coupled to the electrode array for visually indicating the position of at least one electrode, the data entry module accepts an entry of data describing the position of the visual aid, and the calculation unit calculates the position of the individual electrodes relative to the patient's body and provides correction for the image creation algorithm. A sensor device for EIT imaging may comprise the electrode array, which is connectable to an EIT imaging system comprising a data entry unit and a calculation unit. An EIT imaging method may employ the system or sensor device.
