  • Power management in selective deposition modeling
    Patent number: 6711451
    Abstract: A power management system for a selective deposition modeling apparatus for maintaining the power consumption of the apparatus within the limits of conventional power available in most all office environments. The apparatus has a plurality of power drawing components, each component having a activation power rating wherein the accumulative total of all the power ratings exceeds a baseline power consumption value for the apparatus. The system prevents a baseline power consumption value from being exceeded by determining which components can be activated while leaving others inactivated.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 2, 2002
    Date of Patent: March 23, 2004
    Assignee: 3D Systems, Inc.
