Abstract: An additive manufacturing apparatus includes an extruder and a gear pump in fluid communication with extruder. The additive manufacturing apparatus also includes a nozzle in fluid communication with the gear pump. The extruder is connected to a guide member such that at least a portion of the extruder is configured to expand and move along the guide member according to a thermal expansion of the extruder.

Abstract: An apparatus for frequency-modulating telecommunication carriers with baseband signals includes an arrangement for generating two quadrature-related baseband signals in two separate channels, wherein each of the quadrature-related baseband signals is a sinusoidal function of the instantaneous angle of the message signal to be transmitted. The apparatus further includes an arrangement for producing a frequency-modulated carrier from the quadrature-related baseband signals, this arrangement including a device that provides two quadrature-related carrier-frequency waveforms, two mixing devices each for individually mixing one of the quadrature-related carrier-frequency waveforms with one of the quadrature-related baseband signals in one of the channels, and a combining device which combines the output signals from the two channels into a single frequency-modulated carrier-frequency output signal.
