Abstract: A three-dimensional modeling apparatus includes a container, a carrier, and a blower unit. The container accommodates a curable composition. The carrier is configured to face an inner surface of the container and to have a variable distance with respect to the inner surface. The blower unit performs blowing between the carrier and the container. Further, in a case where the curable composition is cured in the container, the modeled object and the support portion, which connects the carrier and the modeled object, are formed. A wind from the blower unit is at least temporarily output toward at least one of the modeled object and the support portion.

Abstract: A photo-curable composition including a di-(meth)acrylic monomer (A) having two (meth)acryloyloxy groups and two urethane bonds, an acrylic monomer (B) having one acryloyl group, and a photopolymerization initiator, as well as a cured product of the photo-curable composition, and a dental product including the cured product.

Abstract: A measuring section of a stereolithography device measures a temperature of a photocurable resin liquid by a temperature sensor. A setting section sets an integrated light amount on the basis of temperature information obtained from a measured temperature and curing information stored in a storage section. An illuminating section controls a projector such that light, by which the set integrated light amount is obtained, is illuminated onto the photocurable resin liquid. Due thereto, light, which is such that there becomes an integrated light amount corresponding to the temperature of the photocurable resin liquid, is illuminated onto the photocurable resin liquid, and therefore, a molded object can be molded with high accuracy.

Abstract: A control unit controls a position of a carrier and an irradiation unit to form a modeled object obtained by curing a photocurable composition. Here, the control unit irradiates the photocurable composition) with light from the irradiation unit to form the modeled object and a support portion which connects the carrier) and the modeled object. In addition, the control unit controls a modeling condition to make a modeling condition when modeling a joint portion of the support portion with the carrier be a condition in which the photocurable composition is easily cured rather than a modeling condition when modeling a first region, in which an area of a cross section parallel to the surface of the light transmission portion is the largest, in the modeled object.

Abstract: A control unit controls a position of a carrier and an irradiation unit to form a modeled object obtained by curing a photocurable composition. In addition, the control unit controls the position of the carrier and the irradiation unit to form at least a part of a flow channel connected to an outside of a container by curing the photocurable composition in a region irradiated with light, and controls the position of the carrier and the irradiation unit to at least temporarily provide at least one of an enlarged diameter portion and an opening portion.
