Abstract: In example implementations, a method for extracting layers of build material into a carrier. The method includes providing a layer of build material onto a bed. Portions of the layer of build material on the bed are digitally printed with a liquid functional material (LFM). The method repeats providing the layer of build material and digitally printing without applying energy to the LFM to define a structure in layers of build material on the bed. The layers of build material are extracted into a carrier and the carrier is removed.

Abstract: An integrated build and material supply system (12) for an additive manufacturing apparatus comprises a building compartment (24) adapted to accommodate an object (50) to be formed by means of additive manufacturing and a storage compartment (22) adapted to store a build material for forming said object. A volume of said building compartment and a volume of said storage compartment are variable in size, and said system is adapted to re-allocate at least a portion of a volume previously allocated to said storage compartment to said building compartment.

Abstract: A method of delivering build material from a build material store (404) to a supply module (102). The method comprises moving, using a rotatable vane (116), a portion of build material from the supply module (102) to the top of the supply module (102), and spreading the moved portion of build material across the support platform (104).

Abstract: A removable build module to connect to a host apparatus, may include a build platform to support an object-to-be-built, a drive unit to move the build platform, a memory to receive and store build parameters, and an interface circuit to communicate the build parameters to the host apparatus.

Abstract: A printing system may be provided. The printing system may include an agent distributor to selectively deliver at least one printing agent onto a substrate on a first type of supply module and a layer of build material on a second type of supply module. The printing system may include a controller to control the agent distributor to selectively deliver the at least one printing agent in patterns derived from data representing a slice of a three-dimensional object to be generated and representing an image to be generated on the substrate.

Abstract: A build module is provided. The build module may include a housing and a build material chamber in the housing to hold build material. The build module may include a build chamber in the housing. The build material chamber may be beneath the build chamber or next to the build chamber. The build chamber may include a moveable support member to receive successive layers of the build material from a build material distributor. The build module may be removably insertable into a build receiver of an additive manufacturing system to allow the additive manufacturing system to solidify a portion the successive layers to be received onto the movable support member.

Abstract: An apparatus for generating a three-dimensional object is provided. The apparatus may include a housing having a surface defining a build receiver to receive differently-sized build modules or to receive a plurality of build modules. The build modules may each include a build chamber to receive a layer of build material from a build material distributor. The apparatus may include an agent distributor to selectively deliver a coalescing agent onto portions of the layer of build material to be received from the build material distributor such that when energy is applied to the layer the portions of the layer coalesce and solidify to form a slice of the three-dimensional object.

Abstract: A controller may be to receive temperature data representing a temperature distribution of at least part of a current layer of build material that is measured by a temperature sensor. The controller may be to determine one or more weighting factors representing a degree of influence of each of one or more previous layers of the build material beneath the current layer on a property of the current layer. The controller may be to identify one or more regions in the current layer based on the one or more weighting factors and based on how the property is exhibited by each of the one or more regions. The controller may be to cause the current layer to achieve a target temperature if the temperature data in a selected region of the identified one or more regions does not match the target temperature.
