Publication number: 20230364862Abstract: According to an example, an apparatus for a three-dimensional printing system comprises a chamber, an actuator, and a controller. The chamber comprises an opening towards the top of the chamber to receive a container having an openable base and the container is to contain a build cake, wherein the chamber further comprises a platform movable below the opening that is to receive the build cake when the base of the container is opened. The actuator is to move the platform within the chamber, and the controller is to position the platform at a build cake receiving position such that when the container base is opened, the build cake drops onto the platform generating a shock wave that is transmitted into the build cake.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 19, 2020Publication date: November 16, 2023Inventors: Arturo GARCIA GOMEZ, Ruben PRATS GONZALEZ, Rafel TEXIDO VALLS, Ernesto Alejandro JONES POPPESCOU
