Abstract: One object on which the present invention is based is to specify an apparatus (101, 201, 301, 401, 501) for production of a mold (117), in particular of a dental mold (117), by means of electrophoretic deposition of particles (115) from a suspension (113, 213), in which case a predetermined spatial shape can be produced deliberately in order in this way to produce the mold (117) as close as possible to its final dimensions and final contour. A further aim is to produce the mold (117) at low cost, with efficient use of resources, quickly and in as simple a manner as possible, with good reproducibility of the method being desirable in order to achieve a low scrap rate.
