  • Publication number: 20230009499
    Abstract: A system and a method for levelling a powder bed is disclosed. The system comprises a cutting device comprising a cutting line and a support surface. The powder bed is cut by the cutting line which moves in a first direction such that the cut powder ends up in contact with the support surface, where it is drawn towards an outlet by a powder entrainment system.

  • Patent number: 11273599
    Abstract: A device for manipulating particles includes a rotating screen on which a particle structure can be formed and at least one scraper. At least one support element supports the screen at the scraper. The device further includes a particle reservoir and a blower, which is located inside the screen and under the reservoir and which blows a gas in order to fluidize the particles present in the reservoir.
