  • ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING BY SPATIALLY CONTROLLED MATERIAL FUSION
    Publication number: 20230219290
    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for additive manufacturing are described. A method for additive manufacturing may include exposing a layer of material on a build surface to one or more projections of laser energy including at least one line laser having a substantially linear shape. The intensity of the line laser may be modulated so as to cause fusion of the layer of material according to a desired pattern as the one or more projections of laser energy are scanned across the build surface.
    Type: Application
    Filed: January 11, 2023
    Publication date: July 13, 2023
    Applicant: VulcanForms Inc.
    Inventors: Martin C. Feldmann, Anastasios John Hart, Knute Svenson, Andrey Vyatskikh
